Crazy busy....

Just to give you an idea, I wrote the title yesterday morning, and tried to finish it off yesterday afternoon.....

Yes, it's going to be that kind of week.

Which is not necessarily a bad thing, I really do enjoy running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I'm serious. We have had very few busy weeks this winter in the Nut House, and most days have been spent wallowing. I'm sure I have grown spiritually as I wage the daily war against sloth and irritability, but it sure is nice to square my shoulders and suck in a deep breath of fresh air as I busily plan and strategize for the week ahead.

It's all about being and staying connected. I've mentioned over and over again how lucky I am to live in the midst of such a vibrantly Catholic community. And many of you bloggers have mentioned the necessity of keeping in touch with our IRL friends, and not replacing them with the internet.

That's what it's all about for me this week.

I have a few dinners to host, some play dates to keep, hair and doctor appointments (just check ups, thank goodness!) a few sport sign ups, a "couples only" dinner out... etc. Full of FUN busy stuff. I am grateful for all of it.

And after an afternoon tea and heart-to-heart with one friend, I am just returning from highlighting another dear friend's hair and of course, more heart-to-heart chatting..... to finish this post at midnight.

Our life is all about living it these days. Tonight I go to bed tired, but content. And extremely grateful.

Thank God for wonderful friends!

:)
