When Life Gets in the Way of Blogging

I pulled up my blog yesterday afternoon (to see if any of you had posted something new) and noticed with some dismay that I hadn’t posted since Wednesday.  How could that have happened???

Just now I was tallying up what has happened in my world since Wednesday morning…

  • drove to the nethermost regions of North Raleigh to look at a van
  • washed sheets & blankets
  • drove back to the nethermost regions of North Raleigh to buy the van
  • had lunch with my visiting teachers
  • went to an appointment in South Durham at the wrong time
  • grocery shopped
  • bought special “lice hate it” shampoo
  • picked up Josh from school
  • had a quick nap
  • washed more sheets, blankets, and towels
  • hosted a goodbye party for good friends who are moving
  • started “Zions National Park hike training” (—took a walk with the kids)
  • went and picked strawberries
  • went and picked out new glasses
  • went and “ate lunch” (samples) at Costco
  • picked up Josh from school
  • still more laundry
  • had a quick nap
  • today’s lice treatment: cover heads completely with cetaphil cleanser, comb out, blowdry for HOURS
  • while watching Gnomeo & Juliet
  • 2 mile training walk (ouch!)
  • cleaned out VERY MESSY garage for hours and hours
  • made homemade strawberry ice cream
  • thought about planting flowers, but instead spent hours checking 2 heads for nits (we’re winning the battle!)
  • watched part of a dumb movie, turned it off and went to bed
  • went to church
  • came home and had an after church NDE (near death experience)
  • made a strawberry pie
  • played games and ate pie with friends
  • even more laundry!!!

Obviously there was not much time or mental energy for blogging anywhere in there.  Hopefully this coming week will be better!

  1. I was really worried about your NDE until I remembered that is what you call Sunday afternoon naps. Good for you.

  2. I am behind on mine too.. It sounds like you are having a good time though, well except for the creepy bugs.

  3. Most of those things are great alternatives to blogging! Granted, I'm sure you would have had time to blog to your hearts content had you not had to deal with the "L" word.

    PS--Hooray for my blog reel working!
