Vacation




i had a great time on vacation. i always have an "adjustment period" with my mom - where i get back into the daughter roll and she's in the mom roll. with all that she has done for me over the years i love that i can now do things to help her. since my dad doesn't travel and i know she loves to & so do i - it really makes perfect sense. i love that i'll have this memory of our trip together for a lifetime. i have to say that this is one of those times that not having children makes it easier to be able to take these trips. i have a really amazing talented mom & i'm so happy she's in my life. she has become so understanding and caring about our IF struggles and i'm lucky to have her.

Praise God

i'm leaving. on a jet plane. for a week in mexico. with my mom & some friends. i can't freakin' wait! i have been mia from here because i've been so busy trying to get everything wrapped up. i can't wait to come up for air with a frozen cocktail in my hand! to take a nap in the middle of the day. to go for a run on the beach. ahhhh

my photography business has been busy. good busy. it makes me beyond happy. it's what i love to do. with more business comes the need, yes need, to build a website, more equipment & to start seriously thinking about it actually becoming a "business".

i have to say that i've had a hard time finding balance. there is always something to do - and to just sit and do nothing - i can't wait for that!

i'll report when we get back from our trip. i love my mom so much - i however - always take a day or two to "adjust" - to go back to daughter role - to let go of control - and to just be in the moment. i hope i spend the whole trip - loving being in the moment.
