Nearly a month

It's been nearly a month and I spend so much time on my computer at my new job that I barely open it at home. Read blogs? Write blogs? Oy vay! I am lucky if I am home before 9:30, so I will try.

I am trying to figure out this new life. This new working mom schedule. Never been like this before? WHen do you go to the grocer? When do I do laundry? Tuesday laundry day is definitely not a go anymore.

With all that said...we are going to Palm Springs Ca on Friday. Spring Break here we come. 87 degrees. Sunshine. love. laughter. family. shopping. drinking. swimming. cribbage. rummy. relaxation. no soccer. no school. no taxi-driver.

I will come back refreshed.

I will come back renewed.

I am hoping to come back recharged and ready to go!

Wish me luck!

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

Jeff went to work last night and so I had the remote and tv to myself. These days that is a rarity. We have had the netflix movie The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel for a while now. We haven't had alot of movie watching time and everytime Jeff looked at it he tossed it back down on the table. Not a sign of enthusiasm for a movie.

Keegan and I watched it last night. Konley wandered off to the man cave. Not really his genre. It was good. The characters in it evolve and change so much and you are rooting for them to become better. Become more. Become more of who they really wanted to be. Not bitter. Not lost. Not on the edge of nothingness. One wanted to find an old friend. One really just wanted to find herself. And another few just wanted to be wanted/needed by someone else. Not necessarily even loved just finding a place in life to be needed.

These are all things that we all want I think. To be found. To be wanted. To be needed (though there are days I would like to not be needed quite so much). To be as much of ourselves as we can.
