Blogging On The Go

The Resistance is winning.

If you’ve never read Stephen Pressfield’s amazing book, The War of Art, you probably have no idea what that means. If you have read it, you know exactly what it means. Basically it means I’ve been super lazy when it comes to blogging.

Something about sitting in front of a blank WordPress dashboard on my laptop makes me run screaming. But blogging from my phone when I’m bored is far less intimidating. So here I am!

I post on Facebook constantly, so much that it probably annoys people, but most thoughts and doings feel unworthy of a whole blog scribe. So here are a few things I’ve been up to lately:

Soccer season has started which means practice on Tuesday and Thursday nights and two games on Saturdays. I generally enjoy it because the boys love it and are both doing well and getting exercise and I get to make new friends with other parents. I love making new friends! Right now is a great time to meet people because one of the first questions is “how many kids do you have” which flows immediately to our adoption, which everyone loves to chat about. It makes conversation easy.

Then I have cool things like my local social media lunch group, where we do stuff like brunch food sampling at the new Dunkin Donuts in Katy. Have I mentioned how Dunkin is my fave and I missed them so much because they were virtually nonexistant in Houston till now? Besides the food, this group of ladies are THE. AWESOME. We spur one another on to blogging greatness. Or try, at least.

And of course I’ve been continuing with caring for my grandparents, which has shifted some from keeping them happy and healthy to cleaning out their old house. This is a huge undertaking since the house is five bedrooms, 3500 square feet, and they saved everything for the forty plus years they lived there. I mean EVERYTHING. Borderline hoarders. My great-grandmother lived with them for awhile but she died a loooooong time ago, but all her stuff was still in the house. Every stitch of clothing, every card she ever received, every medical bill.

So I’m working my way through a few hours a week, room by room. Not getting very far yet. Meanwhile the real estate market in their hood is scorching hot. Hope it stays that way awhile.

Of course there’s Rose too, who occupies my thoughts and heart always. Soon, sweet girl, soon.

  1. Hi there, coming over from your Facebook comment. Are you adopting Rose now? She looks like a total sweetheart. And while we don’t do soccer (my son got my uncoordinated gene), I am so glad for that warm time of year too!
