A few weeks ago, I tried to think of what made me happy and satisfied. The real stuff that makes me happy. Not the superficial stuff that makes me happy for a hour like a new lipstick. But, what makes my life feel more complete. So I made a list of stuff I needed to do. On this list was to make more of an effort to get together with friends. So, I called together my girlfriends for a wine night. And then I said yes to another girl friend that wanted us to all get together for dinner. My calendar started to fill up, I was getting out and I am feeling very happy.
Last night at dinner with friends, my old blog came up. I was encouraged to keep writing. When you write, you assume no one really is reading or caring if you do. So instead, I have exercised at night instead of writing and have been completely obsessed by Bejeweled. (A Facebook game or an app that you can download. Beware: You will be unable to function if you download it and get even a tiny bit good at it. If you are competitive, you will spend hours trying to beat your friends and relatives.)
So, I am attempting a come back here. No major promises. I will just see how it goes. With Elle, I am still finding it extremely difficult to keep up. As I write, two basket full of clothes sit in my hallway and I have a sink full of dishes (and a broken dishwasher). But, one of my friends says you make time for things that are important to you. I guess I can squeeze a few minutes in on my main computer to write and put the iPad down for Bejeweled. And if you start playing, I will see you on main score page and I hope to beat you.

I can never seem to strike that perfect balance in motherhood, no matter how hard I try. When I realize one area is faltering, I focus on it, but inevitably another aspects slips.
That's been the case with my blog as well...I totally get where you're coming from on this.
Welcome back - we'll be reading!
Yay!! Welcome back!!
Hope you stick around for a while :)
Funny I checked in today- I was wondering if you were still writing. Glad to see you're back.
It is tough to balance things as a busy mom. You try different things and figure out where you passion is.
I don't get into the games (I hear that Angry Birds is the most addicting game ever - don't download it!), but I do get into blogs. It's so good to see you back, if even momentarily, and know that you're doing well!
Hi glad to see you writing. Just enjoy it. I always write after going back to read an old story. Fun memories.
