Keeping up with the Me

I’ve never really bothered with the whole “keeping up with the Jones” aspect of suburban life. I think it’s 1/2 I Don’t Care and 1/2 So What? – it is the keeping up with my own sense of what I should be able to accomplish that runs me ragged. For some reason my brain thinks that the four hour block I have after job #1 (Mon – Fri) is more than enough to cook, clean, garden, and clean again because teen boys and three year olds are not the tidiest creatures.

I made the most of my Sunday off though. Worked in the garden tilling and weeding and finding all of the little pumpkin sprouts the squirrels were nice enough to leave me. Everything is coming up great – cant wait until harvest time!

    Keeping up with Jones will NEVER make us happy, because we have no time on focusing what is important to US, what fulfills US. Gardening and kids, even if they are OT tidy is much better than any Jones can have. be blessed!
