I was up til 1:00 am talking to one of my adult children about life tonight.
I didn’t create this post until after midnight on the 30th.
I am bizzy dealing with the ups and downs of life.
I totally forgot to sit down and work on my blog.
Some days have been hard.
Some days have been full of natural beauty and human kindness.
But the toll of my health has made it hard to function. (I am creeky in the bones and overwhelmed in the mind.)
Menopause?
Global warming?
Political instability?
I don’t know the reason(s) - but I am still here and I am appreciative of those of you who give a darn about what I see, do, and think.
I care about you too.
Hang in there with me.
I’ve got some fun sites to see real soon.
I do not post family photos here - but if I did, June’s camera feed is mainly of my Granny life.
It’s exhausting. How did I raise three kids!!!???
But the joy of seeing a little kid giggle at seeing the “monsters” in a carwash - while being oblivious to the fact that at that exact same moment, in the exact same place, our family was dealing with a dead battery in another family vehicle, is so affirming that something is being done well.
Let’s all just keep trying to pull through the tough times and really savor to easy ones.
And tasty ones!
As my 91 year old mother says,
“This too shall pass.”
That counts for the good and bad times.
I’ll talk to my therapist about it next visit and remind myself.
Peace be with you,
Jen Pen
