A little something about me

I have three absolutely amazing kids and a really cool, geeky husband. I love my parents and my sister. I love my in-laws.

Sometimes I think I have too many friends. I love them all and want to see them all the time. But it's exhausting trying to keep up with everyone.

Having a full time job gets in my way. It takes time away from doing things I would rather be doing. Lucky for me I love my job. Contradictory? Not really. I love my life.

Sometimes I get overwhelmed with my life and will say that I hate it. I'm lying.

I have discovered that a really good bbq sandwich makes me feel so much better when I'm in a bad mood. I'm not going to question this phenomenon. I will accept it on faith.

I have creative outlets that I pretend to be good at. When friends compliment my work, I have trouble believing them. When strangers compliment my work, I know it must be true because a stranger has no motivation to lie to me.

I love coffee. It's almost an obsession.

I tend to overextend myself. Lately I've been returning inward in an effort to have a saner life. I fear this is affecting some of my friendships.

I have discovered the child I am most similar to is the one I tend to struggle with. This is probably common knowledge but it seems to counter intuitive to me.

I believe there are forces at work in the universe that are neither good nor bad. I believe we have the power to tap into those forces but sometimes we need help to see. I love my oracle decks and my runes because they help me gain clarity when I have an issue I am trying to understand.

I now have 3 online journals, plus a paper journal. I plan to post in all of these, but not necessarily the same post.
