Finding Balance

Whew! That's all I can say. I really should just stop typing right now and leave it there. What I am flabbergasted by is that my last post was in March.

That is pitiful...

Last night was the midterm election, and frankly I'm exhausted. TC and I were both able to vote yesterday which is an accomplishment alone. We had to balance the taking and picking up of the kiddos in order for us both to have time to get to the polls. I should really make an effort to take advantage of early voting (the nearest poll is extremely close to my office), but I seem to always say to myself,"I'll go tomorrow", and before I know it, it's over and election day is upon me.

Well, election is gone, and not the recovering starts. Who knows what'll happen at this point. I just hope things get better than what they are now.

Honestly, my head is still spinning trying to wrap itself around my absence. It all comes down to finding the time to get it all done, right? And unfortunately, TC and the kiddos come first, and then the career a close second. With commuting 3 hours a day, 3-4 times per week, I'm pretty drained in the evenings, and they're relegated to feeding the kiddos, getting them bathed and to bed, eating and catching up with TC, who I haven't typically made contact with at all during the day. I do, however, get a "Good Morning Beautiful" email from TC every morning which lifts my spirits every time. He's been sending me those emails since we were dating so it's been nice to have that little boost each day. I call them because they start out just that way - each and every one of them. Aahhh...love! It's a wonderful thing.

It's lunch time, and I'm hungry, and I have a ton of work to do before I hop on a conference call and hit the road to pick up the kiddos before the child care facility starts charging me by the minute. And so it continues...
