You stopped during homecoming. There is a beautiful sunset but is 12 o\\’clock. You were invited to your 10th friend birthday party but you were not able to go because you had school. You were invited to go to a Halloween party and a slumber party but you couldn’t go to either. You were invited to go to a birthday party but you couldn’t go to it because you didn’t want to miss your birthday.

Two people share an oddly bittersweet moment as they stop to watch a beautiful sunset… at noon. I find myself spending time on my blog, doing some cross stitch and reading.

My house is tidy and clean and I’m getting some much needed rest.

And when I’m not doing any of those things, I am re – creating my past for my blog.

If you don’t like the way my house looks, I won’t blame you if you stop reading now. The last few weeks have been a flurry of activity and change.

At times it has been exhausting and at others it has been exhilarating.

Most of the time, it has been a little bit of both. I will admit that I feel a little bit like I’m going around in circles… it seems I’ve been going around and around in the same old circles for a while now.

The only difference is that the circles have gotten bigger.

Lately, I feel like I’m spinning.

And I’ve decided that spinning is a good thing.

Because if I don’t keep spinning, I’ll run out of air.

And that is no good. I’ve been going through a time of change in my life.

And when you are going through a time of change, the first thing to go is your time management skills.

In the process, I’ ve realized a few things about myself.

I’ m not a very good multitasker.

I don’ t handle change well.

And I ‘ m not good at being flexible. It’ s hard for me to go with the flow and just go with the flow.

I like to have a plan.

And I like to stick to my plan.

It’ s a good thing that I have never been a good risk taker.

I get anxious when I’ m not in control of my life.

It’ s not something that I like about myself.

But I’ m trying to let it go.

Because if I don’ t let go, I will run out of air.

If I’ m not going to be flexible, I need to learn how to be ok with not having a plan.

Life is too short to live my life by a plan.

So I am trying to learn how to let go and just go with the flow.

I’ m trying to learn how to be flexible and go with the flow.

I’ m trying to let go of the anxiety of not having a plan and just go with the flow.

I’ m trying to be ok with not having a plan.

Life is too short to live my life by a plan.

The truth is, I’ m not very good at it.

I’ m learning.

And that is a good thing.

There is nothing wrong with having a plan and sticking to it.

And there is nothing wrong with having a plan and keeping to it.

But life is too short to live my life by a plan.

That is something I ‘ m trying to learn.

And I am still working on it.

I’m getting there.

I hope that someday, I’ ll be good at going with the flow.

For now, I’m working on it.
