(no subject)
Adam's been out of town since Friday afternoon. I've been having a great time with the kids. It's been relatively easy. But today, oh man, I'm wiped out. I'm easily overwhelmed with the news, with FB links..... like, I have no buffer for bad news or the state of the world. And I'm having all sorts of feelings about my writing and spiritual practices. I'm just sitting with the thoughts and feelings. Clearly, this is likely just mostly hormones and being tired. Maybe tomorrow I'll feel differently. If not, then I can reach out to people for insight or do some actual searching for clarity.
I plan to burn away some of the afternoon by going for a walk to a state park/beach with the grandparents before coming home and eating all the left overs and watching some movie we downloaded, Pitch Perfect. Several friends of mine who like to sing said it was enjoyable. I need something that does not have Orc violence or Serious Themes. Although, we watched The Iron Giant yesterday and Bennett LOVED it. He cheered, he cried. He was incredibly moved. I loved seeing him get engaged and worked up (in a positive, appropriate way). It's such a great little film.
