uh oh
it finally happened. i caught up with myself.
and before you get too excited and start congratulating me, let me explain that i am not caught up, it’s just that I am so far behind that i turned the corner and ran smack dab into myself.
running in circles never gets you anywhere, does it?
and believe me, it wasn’t pretty. i look a mess, all disheveled and distracted and harried. and i’m not even going to mention my hair.
i keep trying to force myself to slow down, but there just isn’t anyplace to do it. right now, my life is a scramble. some of it is self-imposed, but when it comes right down to it, most of it is not. so i keep scrambling and scurrying and squeaking by.
but, oh my.
now that i’ve gotten a good look at myself from behind, i can see that some things just have to change.
i need to, um, pare things down a bit.
i’m not yet sure where to start, where the give and take will happen.
but this rubberband is about to snap me back into place.
here’s hoping i land on my feet.

I think maybe it’s a blessing to realize this before the band breaks, instead of after…here’s to landing on your feet!

Well, if you don’t (land on your feet), just fling an arm out like the girls in the Olympics do, and make like you planned it that way. The show must go on!! (or something like that) : ]

I know exactly how you feel – I feel so scattered and pulled these days. Hope you land on your feet! Hang in there!

I feel like this RIGHT NOW. I’m trying to get organized to leave for vacation, a whole two days earlier than what we’d originally planned and wow ~ I feel discombobulated. Gotta run ~

I think it’s going around, kind of like the flu. Just remember to keep those jeans!!

Try and follow your own track for a bit instead of erasing it. It may turn out to be very educative. Good luck.

Lovely shot. Your words resonate so deeply. I think we have all been in that spot before.

Damn, I’m sorry. BUT on the plus side, now you can take stock and switch that circle out for a straight path. Cheering you on!
