I don't have much to write today, but I did want to post a bad picture of the snow that fell yesterday and comment on how much I'm enjoying Brenda Dayne's Cast-On podcast (see the link in my sidebar). I *love* the music she includes in her podcast, and I think I'm going to have to go surf the Podsafe Music Network to see what I can find.
Secondly, I'm having such a horrible time trying to balance life these days. There's so much to be done and not enough time to do it all. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person in the world who doesn't surrender everything I love doing to try & get all the "stuff" done that I should be getting done. What kind of lesson would I be teaching my children by working all the time and never stopping to enjoy the blessings in our life? Does God really wants us all wrapped up in the busy-ness of this man-made turmoil or does he want us to lead a more simply life and enjoy it? I think I know the answer to this.
I can't surrender the joys in my life in order to finish doing the things that will never be finished. I choose instead to take a small part of every day (sometimes a larger part) to enjoy life. I wish the same for the rest of you.
That said, I do have to go run in circles and prepare for incoming relatives. Being a good hostess is one of the joys of my life. ;-)

Balancing Act

Snow?! we never ever see snow! Flurries are a big deal here!
I'm so sorry that things are so busy. I think that you should take time each and every day to spend time alone, spend time with God, reflect on the wonders that are this world.
I know that you are going through a very difficult time right now, please know that you remain in my thoughts and prayers.
Thanks for the podsafe link. We just got an iPod this weekend so I'm looking forward to listening to some podcasts. I can't believe you got snow, but at least it wasn't 2 feet like Buffalo NY got!
