So this weekend my intention was to fall frolic about;-) And the weather is not supporting my intentions......and truthfully this week has been a week alongside all of September.....September is always a lot......at work and with my kids, everybody adjusting.......and the kids and I all agreed to do our fall celebrating from the coziness of our home.....and finding another weekend to frolic in the world, we have plans to carve pumpkins, and watch Hocus Pocus with special popcorn......and I am making a hearty homey meal for us......and just enjoying each other......maybe a fire in the fireplace if it gets chilly enough.....church tomorrow.....and sometimes you need to cozy in......it is one of my favorite things to do.....always has been.....even as a kid, when there was a snow storm....and my mom would throw a crock pot meal together, and we would cozy in.....and watch the snow fall, safe and sound inside.......and September has been INTENSE.....SO intense....each week more intense than the next......like hold my beer lol;) And I have found life is like that....sometimes when we don't want it to be...and sometimes when we don't choose what finds us......but we have the ability to hunker down too.....so I will revel in the space the three of us occupy....and give us all time to recoup and BE.....my kids love it too....it is one of their favorite things. And I was thinking of all of the angels that have stepped into our path so far to help make it all work.....and I am so so grateful.....there is a woman that takes Mads to school for me.....I drop her to her in Milford.....and after school is covered with a few ladies....and one of them bakes with Mads every Friday after school and she loves it.....and she loves to hang with one of the other ones and girl talk, and loves to hang with my mom one day too......so it all fell into place until I can get home.....I feel left out of Madeline's school community some because I don't pick up or drop off, because of work, and the other moms spend time chatting and bonding then, but there is nothing to be done about that.....it is in the way it is pile......I am a working mama with a commute.......but I am grateful to have found people willing to step in for me. and I have to pay some now for those things, but am grateful to be able to. I finally wrote the deposit check to order my kitchen cabinets this week, and it was the biggest check I have ever written, and it made me clench for a minute lol, but I need a kitchen if I will ever sell this house one day, and to live.....so I am trusting it will all fall together.....I have gotten this far:) And the way has appeared.......I continue to focus on the provisions I have finding me.....I have a little trip planned in a couple of weeks that has me so excited....offering things to me I have never had.....My book chapter is coming out on Oct 2nd and that feels so exciting too! My story in print and out into the world......and I just continue to trust the inclinations and the path......knowing it will lead me to all the best places.....and the places for me, but for this weekend I need to cozy in.....restoring my soul and space to continue on:) Happy Saturday!
