I've started this post three different times now - with three different topics. I'm in one of those "I'm all over the place" modes. I've been doing a lot of introspection, lately so the deep thoughts in my head are many. It's Sunday night, so my to-do list for this week is in the forefront and it feels like emails and phone calls and chores are in a vicious game of rock/paper/scissors. Of course how I really want to spend my time this week is by doing nothing unless some sort of fun! Unfortunately, fun normally doesn't show up on my doorstep in the middle of the week unannounced, so I'm guessing a huge amount of laundry is in my future.
There's always the possibility that I'll figure out what to do with my life by the time I wake up tomorrow, so then I could do that instead. Of course, that's why I'm here. I have a friend whose dream has inspired me! I want to help, I want to be a part of it, I want that excitement. Oh, wait - I have a dream, right? Ummm...yeah? Oh, I remember, I wanted to try my hand at writing. The only problem is that deep introspection, emails, phone calls and chores get in the way. Not to mention the whole mommy thing - driving kids back and forth, practicing the piano, homework and making them feel cherished all at the same time. It's no wonder that writing got pushed to the bottom of the list.
I decided not tonight. I sat down and started to write. Hmmm...that first one didn't feel quite right. The second one - well, I have something very profound to say on that topic, but the words just weren't coming out right. Then I heard what sounds like a frog outside of my window and I thought, "That's what I should write about." How cool would it be to have a frog outside of my window? I know that those who know me well are thinking that I'm not the type of girl who likes frogs - wrong!!! I LOVE frogs. As a matter of fact, I do much better with slimy than I do with crawly. (I guess I have my Jr. High biology teacher to thank for that.) So I'd be thrilled to have a little froggie out front.
The more I think about it, there isn't really a lot to say about the possibility of having a frog outside of my window. The good news is that little croak got me going. I have officially written a post tonight. So here we go again, faithful friends. Let's hope I'll be back tomorrow night. And if it's getting too late and you're not seeing something from me - let's hope that little frogger dude croaks me into another writing mood. Maybe next time, you'll get some profound thoughts.
