To every season



I know I haven't been here in a while, well, to be exact since mom's birthday.
I have been pretty busy, or at least it seems that way. Funny how you can fill the spaces of grief in your mind with extra day to day life, but when that is done, those spaces go back to where they were before.
I started two classes online towards my bachelors in nursing. It seems like a lot of work, but I do enjoy it. It's something I wish I had started a long time ago, better late than never! I am officially an "adult" learner.
For the past two months I have been training for a marathon. The marathon is this weekend, I had resigned myself to not running it. Two weeks ago I did something to my foot, just walking! Though it probably was a cumulative injury from training. Up until four or five days ago I was still having some pain, none now. Today will decided whether I go on Sunday. One more test run!
My photography business is also starting to have a go at it! (I told you I was busy!) So far I have three or four bookings for October, which I am thrilled about! Any chance to create art and beauty makes me happy.
So I find myself wondering why my head is spinning, and then I sit back and mentally list off what I have been doing..all this along with work.
Sometimes I think I have gotten myself into too much by going back to school, but then remember the moment I was officially signed up, and the feeling it gave me. It was instantly a positive feeling. It is just a lifestyle adjustment that I need to get used to, a plus being that it is not a bad lifestyle adjustment!
Do I talk too much about me??
Guess that's ok..it is MY blog, so will allow it.
I hope all is well with my readers. The change of seasons this year has been bittersweet when I think of how things were supposed to be. I would have had my best friend, my mom, to enjoy some of it with. I hope she is still able to see all the beautiful colors of autumn.
