It's who I am

I've gotten into a rut of blogging just what's been happening. I find it easier to sit down and say something about the kids or dash or what we've done as a family then to gather my thoughts. I think that the difficulty I'm having is that I haven't been thinking a lot! I go through times like this where I'm busy and I'm focused on life and the here and now and my brain just isn't processing things around me in an analytical way. I find solace in Sudoku where I can for a while analyze without true "deep thoughts."

I'd say that this is out of character for me, but since it's what I do, I guess that's not true. Maybe a truer statement is that I wish this were out of character for me. Sure I can let my hair down and have more fun when not thinking of the deeper meaning of life, but where does that lead to in the end? We play a game (yes another one) that's called Cash Flow. Cash Flow's whole point is to teach people to get out of the rat race, to think a head and make deals while you can. I guess I realize that I'm stuck in the circle of rat race in life and yet I'm not unhappy there. Which leads me to another thing. I don't want to be lazy. I don't like to think of myself as lazy, but when it comes to this I guess I am. I'm stuck and I see it, but I figure "if you're not unhappy do you really need to change things?"

I guess with that I've come full circle. I'm getting tired of thinking now, so I guess I'll be lazy and go back to the way things were before (again) and my next blog will probably be about the kids or family. I've got such a diverse personality! :)

I don't really think of certain types of posts as better than others, but I am almost the opposite from you I think. I sometimes post the, "this is what I've been doing," posts, but I enjoy typing up the, "deep thoughts," ones more.

Don't raise the bar and get too deep all the time, because I want to remain at a surface level with my blog.

My mom used to say, "A mother's work is never done." It's hard to find time to think when you have kids!

Yeah, I go back and forth. The what happened ones are easier to do, less thought. Though I do get excited to write and see posts when I feel I have a thought-filled one.
