living summer
By heather | June 22, 2010
Out of curiosity yesterday I went and peeked at my site to see when the last time I posted was, and it was even longer than I thought. Several things have been contributory – I started working on an MBA (why? anyone’s guess is as good as mine) and I’ve found that while I have a lot of actual paid work to do, being able to work from home allows the work to flow around other things I want to do. That flow also means that tasks really expand to fill the space I have to accomplish them. I used to get more personal stuff done between 4:30 and 7pm than I sometimes do in a week now.
I also took a week and went to visit my parents, which was an awesome and relaxing trip despite the almost 10 hour drive. We had beautiful weather and the trip consisted mostly of park visits, making ice cream, bubbles, and other good stuff. It is so amazing to me to watch these two distinct little personalities as they emerge and grow and leave impressions on people around them.

I really miss the mountains. And this is one of my favorite pictures of Emily Kate:
Her expression says so much about her personality, the raised eyebrow and half smirk indicating that she had a bigger plan for that water table…
My dad and I were laughing too hard to stop her. I think that should be the goal this summer…to be laughing so hard that you can let the little things go.

Awww! Those pictures are too cute.
Exciting about the MBA! Are you taking classes?
I know what you mean about having tasks expand to fit the time. I can’t seem to get enough done no matter how much time I add!
