Well, it is official the kids are back in school and I am a self proclaimed "House Frau!" I am now alone a majority of the days. As it is right now Scott is taking the children to school at 7:30 and I don't see them again until 3:00. On the days they have music or circus after school I won't see them until 4:30! Yep, it's just me all day long, nope excuse me; it's me and the dog! All day! So after 3 loads of laundry, mopping, vacuuming, scrubbing toilets, weeding the yard, running, grocery shopping, and making beds what else is there to do! Well to be honest it is time to discover what I like to do! I know longer work, I know longer have that many social obligations (still gotta meet friends), and so it is all about me! Here is what I have learned in a few short days!
1) Apparently I am a crier, who knew!
2) I actually enjoy noise, just not from kids (or the dog)!
3) The 10 or so books that I have bought in the past year have pages with words on them meant to be read!
4) Walking the dog seemed like it would be a majestic task, it is really a pain in the butt.
5) I love to cook! It's just I make too much for one family to eat; I need neighbors like in Davison to give it too...
6) I keep putting off German lessons, why? Most likely the fact that I hate school!
7) I use to spend too much time on the phone...I miss it!
8) TV was way too much a part of my life; I haven't watched anything in English since last Monday.
9) I still love running, but hate these German hills! Really hate them!
10) I wanna learn how to be still, I am always running around doing something!
11) I am more out there than I thought, meeting new people every day, now if I could just remember their names :(
12) Finally, I don't like exploring without someone to share it with! Hmmm, need to work on this one.
Well it's out there! Like an open book! Something for me to reflect on in the next few months! Hopefully I will continue to see changes in growth in myself while on this crazy journey!
