My return to blogging as a lot to do with writing my next story. The last 10 plus years of my life have been lived at a pretty frantic pace. I was a single mother way before I was an actual single mother. Balancing kids, work, home, life, I am not sure balance even exists. When I became an official single mother, it was not too much longer until I started grad school. I see what I did there. Busy was my norm. As the kids needed me less, I needed something to fill that void. I have no regrets about getting my master's degree (my work paid for it too), but seriously, I don't know how I did it. However, I know I over did it for a long time.
Now for the first time in a long time I finally feel I can breathe. It's such a good place to be. I want to tell a different story now. A slower story. This feels exactly where I need to be.
These pictures are from a fast road trip we took to Wyoming this last June. We went to see my husband's family and attend his class reunion. We saw so much in just a few short days. I took a knitting project but found myself staring out the window instead.
