Whispers...

The Church's food ministry, Little League parent meeting, a sleepover, a birthday party, the hymn sing... it's been a busy weekend. We've had a lot going on. It seems everywhere we turn lately there's something that needs to be done. We found out on Friday night that Richie will be a Pirate this season. There was a meeting with his coaches yesterday; they're both very nice men who have boys on the team. Practices will be tight with the boys in three different leagues but we'll manage it. All I can think is whew, he's not a Yankee HA HA HA! Richie's birthday party got off to a slow start but ended up turning out pretty nicely. Thank goodness for internet, I was able to find a neat little science project that the kids loved. If you want to try it, drop me an email and I'll let you in on it, it really is great! As successful as everything worked out, I'm not sure I can keep up this pace for too long. We've got practices and games and scouts and church and work and blah blah blah. The list just seems to grow every day. I looked at my calendar for later on this month and I swear, I'm triple or quadruple booked for a day. I can't remember the last time this happened. Then, Summer'll come and Richie will go to Mom's and I'm going to be lost. I'm wondering, can't we spread some of these over for a little while?!? Pleaseeeeeeeeeeee! Still, it's nice to have so much to do, it keeps my mind working and doesn't allow me to think about the things that bother me. One example is someone who fell off the face of the earth about a month and a half ago and then suddenly reappeared. I guess I should be used to it by now, it's not the first time it's happened but then, it still sucks. Wish someone would just be honest and say what they want then ACT like it's what they want. How can you expect the world to stand still for you if you won't make a move to get where you want to be? Wait... should I just sit here with my arms open waiting for you to make up your mind what you want? I don't get it. But I will say this, quit walking away then acting hurt when things go on. Like Reba said "I guess the world didn't stop, for my broken heart." Life goes on, it has to. The sun will rise and set and others will try to put their lives back together. When was the last time you stopped to help someone else pick up the pieces instead of worrying about what you wanted? It really is a lucky thing for you that I am so booked right now. If I didn't have a column to write I'd really tell you what I think!
