Wow! When on earth did it become August all over again? Who can I blame for the fact that the summer, so often a draw to all that I love because I have more time for them--God and my family--just haven't at all received the attention they deserve?
Honest to goodness, I can't blame anyone other than myself. I'd love to blame work, but going in every day was my choice. I love to blame coaching cheerleading (Go Aucs!), but yet again, that was a choice that I made. No, every excuse that enters my head is my own fault.
Aren't the minutes the Lord gives us precious? Aren't His words to us to "pray without ceasing"? And what have I done? Certainly nothing I feel proud to admit to Christ that I spent His time doing.
So I'm here at the beginning of a new school year, and it seems like the walls are crowding around me. All of those things I procrastinated are falling over and yet even though I admitedly spent all summer not listening to the promises made to me, like the wayward Isrealites, I'm given a second (third, fourth--you get the picture) chance.
What am I going to do with it this time?

Not even Disney can fix flu season
Something's wrong when I don't even feel like planning a Disney trip. It's not that I don't want to--it's that I don't feel well enough to. I'm sitting here, at home, with my feet all covered up and you know what? I would love to open the Disney binder right now, but I just don't feel well enough to do it.
Flu season has hit our home with a vengeance. It's been tough, to say the least. Tough enough that rather than pour over menus that might make me nauseous, I am on my blog--something I haven't done since October. Yep. Facebook can't get my attention (although, a little nasty thought entered my head when I realized that Dan left himself logged in), the Disboards make me think of planning, which just makes me more uncomfortable, and to top it all off, the laundry, though I've attempted to tell Dan otherwise, needs little attention once I have it in the washing machine until it's folding time.
So that just leads me to this realization--though I've tried to tell myself otherwise, Disney just can't fix everything--especially the flu.
