....I am a blogging loser. I wouldn't particularly care, except that my friend Taylor makes me feel guilty by being a blogging rock star. She is The Lumberjack's Wife. And she blogs at least once a day. Where do you find the time, Taylor? Or the energy? Or the things to blog about? Because, frankly, my life is simply not that interesting or exciting. Oh well, I shall never be a blogging rock star. But I guess I could at least try to post once a month...... see? Blogging loser.
In all honesty I'm really just very, very, very tired. Which I realize is probably because I have four children who are home with me all day and I'm 22 weeks pregnant. But when this particular lady is tired, it's hard for me to do anything beyond the completely essential. I become very anti-social because it takes too much energy to be social. I also find it difficult to psych myself up to do anything that involves leaving the house. Because getting four kids dressed, bundled up, and in and out of the car is exhausting!
And yet, yesterday I not only left the house, but I stood in line in 18 degree weather for 6 hours just to see and shake Sarah Palin's hand. And it was totally worth it. She is a woman I greatly admire. Not only her ideals and principles, but her grace and strength under fire.
Today, I am sore. And exhausted. I have issues with having too many contractions during my pregnancies (my doctor refers to it as an "irritable uterus" which is just a funny term, in my opinion) and sometimes it's hard for me to tell what's going to trigger it. Evidently standing in line for 6 hours does, because last night was a contraction filled night! So this morning I am doing something I never, ever do. I am lazing around in bed at almost 9 am. Oh, I'll get up eventually and clean the house and fold the laundry. But right now, I'm enjoying some down time. And blogging! Imagine that.

good for you! you should sleep in and stay in bed for awhile. :-) I called off school myself this morning to clean the school room and get organized. it's my "teacher-in-service" day. so my kids are off playing a video game - sad, I know. but sometimes you just need those days!! glad to see you back to the blogging world!
Glad to see you blogging! I think it is fun and easy to blog. It is my hobby, so I find the time for it, usually when the kids are in bed at night.
I can't believe you waited in the cold to see Sarah Palin.
I don't know if I would be able to do that to see anyone.
Well, actually, I might wait in the cold to see Pioneer Woman.
And there is nothing wrong with a lazy day every now and then!
