Scattered Brain

  I walked down the road today in the dim trying to catch those last rays of sun on my face before it slipped behind the mountain. It seems these days my mind is in more of a flurry than ever. Is this because everyone is getting older? There are so many things just always in my mind:

Dont forget the testing to go to on Monday.

We missed our last soccer on Friday, that sucks so much, but that's life. It's okay.

What would the perfect gift be for her?

What would be fun games for an eleven year old's birthday party? Please brain think! You've already thrown two eleven year old birthday parties surely it's not this hard!

I need to ask him again to please put a shelter over the chicken food.

Oh dear, the cats! The cats need food too.

What to make for dinner and what to feed them all tomorrow?

Is she having fun and is she feeling okay while she is gone?

Oh God please can you help her through this?

Okay, my body is aching,

It is so cold today ~ do I have gloves for everyone? I know I need new boots for her, does her coat fit? He needs new pants and socks. 

I HAVE to schedule those dentist appointments

Oh yes, his Halloween costume. Why do I always put these things off!

I wish I could bake a pie.

He needs his nails trimmed I can't forget!

I wish I could sleep, just for a few hours

The sun is fire right now and that dusting of pink is so glorious. 

Okay I have to get back and get that cake made

This was a small portion of it all. It is 10:26pm and my children are not asleep. One day they will all be grown but I wish there were bigger windows right now where I could enjoy it all in a different light. 

Just being honest
