Long days and Nights
It seems like my computer time is getting less and less. One thing about living up north is the that we go from long, cold nights, to hot summer days in the blink of an eye.
I think getting out and enjoying the yard has been a huge step on the ‘getting on with life’ boat. We’ve been spending a lot of time playing T-ball and horseshoes. The kids have put so many miles on their bikes this spring. I LOVE that we bought an acreage. The kids have so many places to roam.
It finally got dry enough for our bonfire season to start. We had several friends come over this past weekend for our first one. I learned that if you take friends out of the city it’s bound to be a good time. We had fireworks, fire walking, and good eats. My sides are still hurting from laughing so hard.
I’m happy to report that single life has become wonderful. The life that the kids and I are creating for ourselves is a happy one. We’ve really become the family that I wanted. We are surrounded by great friends and enjoying our times together. I don’t regret my decision at all anymore. In fact I sometimes wonder why I didn’t do it sooner…
We have a lot of big events coming up in the next few weeks. For the first time in a long time I am looking forward to Mother’s Day. My birthday is shaping up to be a great weekend. Kindergarten Orientation is this week. I have another trip in the works. Busy, busy, busy.
Maybe it’s a good thing that the days are so long in the North. I need all the time I can get to fit in everything that I want to do. We’ll take our time and get everything we want done eventually.
