What We have Been Up to.....

Time somehow escapes from me every day. Does anyone else always feel like that?  And before I even realize it, December slipped right through my fingers.  We have been crazy busy, as usual. 

I wish I could say that all of December has been sitting by the fire with this view....

I did happen to find a few minutes one afternoon a few days ago where my taxi wasn't needed, homework was done, games weren't on the calander, instruments were practiced, and the laundry wasn't waiting for me.  And so I sat on the couch and just enjoyed myself.  (And who cares if we had pancakes for dinner that night after my momentery bliss, right?) 

I wouldn't change anything about our crazy busy schedule.  (After all, I am the one who books the calander!) However, I must say that those brief peaceful moments sure are appreciated.

And hopefully while on our 11 day Christmas Vacation, I will have a few more of those moments where I can sit and catch up on my blog (seeing as at this very moment I have 2 lods of laundry waiting to be folded, packing lists to make, bathrooms to be cleaned, a broken ornament to be cleaned up, dishes in the sink........I think you get the idea :)!)
