Spinning

The madness continues as I desperately try to make it all work. Work, family, passion, play. It's a lot to expect I suppose that all of these things in life can be manageable. But, I never ever lose hope, or faith that if I keep following my heart, being my truest self and let the way I feel (like in my deepest gut) guide me that I will be led as I walk. Or run. Or spin. That doors will open when the time is right for me to enter. That the windows will be cracked just enough to let the breeze in and that in summer or winter I will be looked after. It's the only thing that keeps me from getting too dizzy from all this spinning.

i'm celebrating a brief quiet moment, a respite from the usual "spinning" in my BSM:
Quiet Time

I hear ya....sometimes between spinning and time passing so quickly I feel what I want to do will never get done and what I want to enjoy will have gone by already. I struggle trying to hang on to memories and want more than anything to find a better balance before it all go whisking by~ Take Care and I hope you have a wonderful week!

My Best Shot:
The Witch and our Princess

My head is definitely spinning from the challenges of my children and with dreams of my own.

Your image is darling...captured perfectly.

Such fluidity! I have a "spinning" shot of my own:

The Original World Wide Web?

very much identifying with the trying to make it all work thing and not quite finding the time for all the little things that need doing. In it's place, indulging a bit in just being and spending a long morning out of the house running errands and enjoying a windy afternoon at the park and letting my 5yo have one of my cameras. Here's her best shot Monday this week.

I've been trying to focus on enjoying my two little ones before #3 arrives tomorrow!

Autumn here is in full swing ... just celebrated my daughter's birthday with a party in a pumpkin patch and I definitely have to get back with my camera and without 15 kids running around! Here is my favorite from the day: http://dandelionseedsanddreams.blogspot.com/2009/09/despite-my-grumblings-i-have-to-admit.html

Now I'm off to do some spinning of my own - thanks for the reminder :)

September 28, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterLis

Wow! digging that shot!

Here is my BSM

Cute photo, Tracey! (**I posted earlier, I think it got lost!) I've been MIA lately - been gone a lot but life seems to be slowing down! Things are changing around here and, you're right, makes one a little dizzy sometimes!

September 28, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterBerta

"The madness continues as I desperately try to make it all work." Wow, that sentence spoke right to our lives right now. Could we ever fill up an evening sharing lives, you and I.

Thanks, as always, for sharing the "real stuff" with us, Tracy. I'll agree...life is very unpredictable and I'm slowly learning to go with the flow of circumstances. I'm glad your pursuits are rewarding. You'll get through this crazy time! ;)
