Who am i

 Ive been able to recognize that although summer is hard in the idea that the kids are home; making messes, needing entertainment, feeling my presence or lack of, it is good for my brain. The kids have gone back to school this week and I am thinking I need to make some goals. Make some plans, for myself. Lately, I look at quotes, or memes and think: Is this me? I almost am not sure. I have decided to start actually figuring out, who I am now at 46. It's been awhile since I've had the time, energy, or maybe even money to think through who I am and/or who I want to be. When I say energy, I mean brain and physical. I've decided to do this here. I have terrible handwriting, and hate having pen in hand for long periods of time, so typing is better for me. This will be a process. Thinking, planning, problem solving. It will require some effort, and some patience on my part. For example: this morning is friday. I do my paperwork on friday mornings. But, I decided to take my personal time until 9, and not feel guilty. I read my scriptures, wrote my thankfuls, drank my hot caffeine flavored water, and am writing. I (think?) I need to take some personal time each day. I need to work on a goal, or project each day. I need to figure out what I love, and do things to embrace it. My idea is that if I push myself to do these, I will be able to push away the extreme depression and loneliness that encompassed me last school year. I will try to come here to plan, and report. 

Today: Paper work until 10:30, get ready, town, lunch (with Amy, Emily, Krew, Carson),  meet Canyon and Cruz off the bus at 1:30, take them to gravity factory, nap, paperwork, weed,  pick them up,

I'll be back.....
