Another Monday Morning

It's another Monday morning and I'm enjoying the sound of silence and the crisp temperatures that have descending on my little town.  It's amazing how much more energy you have when 100+ degree weather isn't around.  I have a lot going on this week.  I need to buy some back to school items for the kiddo and do a general prep of all that.  We started putting him to be earlier so that by the time school starts next week he will be on a good schedule.  The only test will be if my husband wakes him up early this week while I'm at work to prep him for the morning portion.  Things are going okay on the money front.  We could be doing better, but we could also be doing a lot worse.  Just trying to make it until payday without spending too much.  Have a great day!

A Moment of Peace

Right now, I'm sitting at work enjoying a moment of peace.  It feels so good.  This whole summer has been a blur of activities, job training and miserable temperatures.  I'm the type of person that needs to have some quiet time each day to focus on my daily goals and to just be a pleasant human being.  Today is the first day of the entire summer that I have been allowed more than 10 minutes of quiet reflection.  It's amazing how much it invigorates me and helps me organize my thoughts.  I know the chaos will start soon but being able to have this time for reflection helps me conquer the day.  Ahhh....quiet time, how I've missed you.
