Everything after that is pretty much a bonus--but oh so craved! It's good to keep things in perspective. Can only live one day at a time...great message, Sara!Carolina M.

If you can't take pleasure in the little things...constantly pacing the floor waiting for the big event to happen...then not only are you setting yourself up for a major fall, but you're missing the point.

There are so many things I want to accomplish, but I don't get through all of them each day--like exercise, cleaning, writing, fixing a nutritious meal, getting homework done with the kids and actually spending time with them, too. It seems like things are always coming up and all of the day to day things I plan to do fall by the wayside. So, really, just making it through the day putting out all the fires and getting to as much of my list as I can is all I can ask for. <br /><br />Enjoyed your post. It made me think. That's good, 'cause my brain needs some exercise now and then.Sharihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05184772057308479564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9086092860215091270.post-48209033874252936372010-11-29T10:07:49.570-08:002010-11-29T10:07:49.570-08:00Yes, raising my daughter to be a loving, responsib...Yes, raising my daughter to be a loving, responsible, happy adult is my numbering priority. I think I do pretty well with her, and my husband and relationships in general.<br /><br />I think the one thing I need to be doing each day, but I haven't been regular, is daily exercise/workout. Somedays, too many days, I let my family, house and writing take priority over my life. I say yes to so many people and projects, and since I'm healthy and relatively thin, I don't make it happen as often as I should. Sometimes I go weeks without a single workout. *sigh* I told myself I'd make it my top New Years resolution, but really I should be making it daily right now.<br /><br />Lovely post, Sara.<br />~LolaLola Sharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14394765053485642935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9086092860215091270.post-30469837249600314212010-11-29T09:24:07.805-08:002010-11-29T09:24:07.805-08:00I'm almost done raising my kids, and I'm v...I'm almost done raising my kids, and I'm very blessed to be able to say that it was an enjoyable ride. My kids are young adults now, but you know, they still need me. There are universities to decide on and filling out student loan applications, and financial and girl matters (or boy, eventually. My daughter's 16 but too busy for boys right now--yay). It's wonderful watching them walk down their own path and finding their own way, but I'm grateful that they still want me to be a part of it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09687047513163296827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9086092860215091270.post-87360863588947956742010-11-29T09:20:17.441-08:002010-11-29T09:20:17.441-08:00We were talking about something similar to this wi...We were talking about something similar to this with someone who came to visit yesterday.
