quiet time- ramblings

i haven't been carpooling lately since my schedule has been a bit weird with Kadison's new daycare situation. even though I like the idea of carpooling i do like it when i can have the alone time in my car. it's really the only time I'm really alone.

it's funny sometimes how i feel the need to crank the music as loud as possible so to drown out all the thoughts in my head and other times i need it off so i can hear myself think...

i've been feeling very restless lately; more so I guess since I'm known to be a restless soul. the imbalance of life has been getting to me one way or another and trying to keep it from going to far south or too far north can be exhausting

so to have some quiet alone time in the car can be such a blessing even if i am sitting in bumper to bumper traffic

awhile back i wrote about taking a walk in berkeley on a random day and how that helped me so much.... i need that again, and not in the thinking about it till i burst way ...the really needing to get out in nature and walk way!

we went on a mini vacation this weekend - where we stayed in a hotel in the area to be able to swim in a pool and to just get out of our own lives for awhile. it was just what was needed; we didn't need to go hours or miles to feel like we were away. we hung out in nature, played at playgrounds, swam in a pool, had ice cream in the middle of the day and had a scrumcious dinner out.

just a little something can go a long way.....
