Well we are fast approaching the middle for July and it is almost as if I can see the summer slipping by. The field behind the house was hayed yesterday. The process began in the early morning with the hay being cut, laid to dry in the sun, was tetted and then raked and baled by sundown. It is just before sun up the following morning and a gentle rain is falling on the field and I can now clearly see where the corn has been planted for silage for the fall.
I feel as though this year is a race to the finish line as we approach the end of the second quarter of the year and the summer is upon us despite the incessant clouds and the persistent rain. Life has entered a little bit of a lull, until the craziness of the summer starts and me feeling as I am not sure I know where everyone is during the day, but the weather I will take. So, let us see…where to begin?
Well it is approaching April and we headed to the Beach House last night. The sleepy New England beach town is still covered in snow and the yard I thought I would be able to get cleaned up is far from awake. The boys slept longer than usual as did I. I always sleep better up here with the ocean air less than 2 blocks away.
Well today could be the day!
Hey everyone! well my adoption worker called yesterday, and she finished my file and submitted it so she says i should be approved and put into the adoption pool on friday! This is exciting news for me. The frusteration im having is the differing opinions on how long the wait will be. Will it be soon?
So we just returned from the annual NYE event in Maine. Our friends could not make it so it was just the boys and the dogs and I.
If I start this now perhaps by the time I am finished, it will just be a retrospective posted on NYE. There is a lot of reflection going on in my head these days and there is a lot more that needs to be done. I am sure that as usual the process of writing will help in the “processing” of all of the information and incidental facts and situations resulting in lessons and something I can look back on and say “OH! Is that what I was supposed to learn”.
