As we approach our next departure to Disney World (another surprise trip), I realize how long it has been since I posted. Job change, family and health issues piled up for a while and my time and energy were overwhelmed so that habit was lost. I literally had a dream the other night that I was a published author, a legitimate published author, and woke up ready to write my novel! It did make me realize how much I have missed writing. It is time consuming sometimes. Life happens and writing gets pushed to the side because it isn’t a requirement. My family isn’t dependent on writing, it isn’t my job and I don’t HAVE to do it. I realize though that maybe I NEED to do it. Maybe I need to prioritize writing. It helps me in so many ways. Writing for myself feels somewhat selfish, I guess that’s why I feel like it isn’t required. 

It is May though, which is always an overly busy time of year.  I told my coworkers that May is busier than Christmas for me. They didn’t understand, they don’t have children yet. 😉 May is awards day, graduations, parties, Mother’s Day, field trips, birthdays, we have lots of (April and) May birthdays, Dance Recital Rehearsal and the Recital itself, tryouts for next year’s activities and everything getting crammed into the end of the school year. There’s just a lot going on in May. All that to say, May is crazy enough on its own but I am crazy enough to cap it off with a surprise trip to Disney World. Our first trip as Annual Passholders and I can’t wait!
