The title of this blog is a favorite quote from Gretchen Rueben's book, The Happiness Project. I admit, I do catch myself wishing away some days, some seasons of life, hoping for better things. The years pass quickly and when I look back I realize those WERE the better things. In an effort to capture those better things I begin this blog. The details of my life are many things: mundane, quirky, sad, joyful, and hopefully, at times, entertaining. About three years ago my life was pretty much an open book when I blogged about our family's struggle with leukemia. When that was over I closed the book. I now open it again----well, at least a few chapters

And That's How I Feel Today

I was listening to my Wicked soundtrack today while I was working on my 100 item to do list before bedtime. The song 'I'm Not that Girl' came on, and for some reason really hit me hard.

Especially this line:

"Every so often we long to steal
To the land of what-might-have-been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel when reality sets back in."

Yep, and thats how I feel today.

Do you really have 100 things to do on your list? I need to re-read that post you did a few months ago about priorities and getting things done. Sometime reality stinks. I hope you have a good day.

Oh Cor even though we only have a virtual friendship as in we virtually never see each other, hope you know that we love you. I glad you could write about it writing about stuff and putting it out there always helps me process.
