Lol, I am SO ready to come home!!!!!
I don't staycate very well I'm afraid. I LOVE to rest and play like anyone else but give me two days and I am ready to go home and WORK. I have always loved to work, it doesn't matter what kind. Clean, cook, school, massage therapist (gosh that seems like a lifetime ago!) now the magazine..it really doesn't matter.
I have always secretly wanted to be a cashier!!! I never have been a cashier (darn) but I think the attraction is the mindless work coupled with my favorite past time...people!
Yep, I'm ready for the job. It was the hardest part of my "coming home" from working outside the home. Realizing that my skill set could be used in the home and applying it. I think if I may be so bold, that one lesson I learned from God through it was that as soon as I accepted it, did it, embraced it and learned to love it, He gave me another outlet that I could "work" in without really leaving again.
I surely hope that I find a really great spot to work at church too. I also surely have no idea what will come of it, lol but I know that God will bring it all together.
I think the new plan for our family though is to BE TOGETHER. We are all of a sudden super sensitive to time for some reason...and are hard pressed to be apart. I hope that is not a foreshadowing. It must be my latent Jewish-Italian-Catholic Mother side coming out. Worry!
But I think we will work hard for three weeks, endeavor to get school back under control (we never take off for summer because we take so much time off regularly) and bust the issues out and then come down here for the weekends. Not sure what will happen with the house here though as my Mom will soon be coming to live here again. We think.
It is weird to think of the issue being delivered all over town and me not having seen it yet. Jeff got me laughing when I complained. He said: "You've seen it! You've read it! You wrote it!"
But you know, it is just not the SAME....lol
but he should be here in about an hour and a half and then I SHALL SEE IT!
We have been getting steady emails in from even strangers now commenting on the magazine and boy does that make me happy.
SInce my own world is the group and I don't get much response there, (except for those few who I ADORE and thank for giving me input! You KNOW who you are!) it is SO WONDERFUL to receive.
But I miss M terribly and we are at our wits end so I am going to have to just ask the Lord for more hours which I am sure He will answer with better balance instead.
Can there be time for cooking, cleaning, training, schooling, mag moguling, writing, networking, friendships, church, rest and fun?
Heck, why not. Let's give it a shot.

Wow. I just re-read my own post and realized how choppy it was. Sorry. Just posting in stream of thought mode...:)
Where IS everybody!?!
lol... I think everyone is having that fractured time too! I know I am.
The cover looks wonderful! I'm sad we "missed" each other!
We missed you today!
I heard the fox n friends team talking about staycations this morning...
I miss M too, come back to us M................
I am extreme home makeovering so my time is crazy, but will see everyone soon.

I'm here - absolutely cannot get motivated to write my own blog even though I have so much to say - but I'm reading everyone elses. Haven't seen the mag yet - Luke used to bring it home from school - will have to grab it from somewhere else.
Jewish, Italian, Catholic...throw Irish in there and you can add guilt to your worry...as my dad always said "Guilt is good!" Yep, can't beat that sage advice.
Okay, I've given you some time here but now I just insist on seeing something new!
did anyone else see that tumbleweed rolling by?? Just kidding!! You KNOW we miss you!
I'm with you chewhi!
