The ups and downs of life....

I haven't written in awhile (again) and so I sat down to write my thoughts but first I read my last few posts. "We did it" and "Money Woes" got me thinking how in a short time my life has been a roller coaster ride. I took the day off to have more work done to the house. We're back on the upward motion of this house-building ride! The end is in sight but boy what a ride it's been! I am thankful to have figured out a way to continue the process. This journey has been exhausting. We'd lose sleep over the many decisions that came with building our house. How much money could we save for the next project? Should we spend money on the house or take a break and go on vacation? Many families struggle with money like saving and spending, but not many also have the burden of building on top of everything else. I am looking forward to an easier balance of work and rest.

Music helps...

Wow this has been a crazy ride of ups and downs emotionally! I've made sure I've been exercising and taking vitamins, but I haven't been able to shake the slump I've been in. I'm sure everyone knows exactly what I'm talking about! Anyway, today I finally figured out what works for me! I have the music blasting and I'm dancing around the living room with my daughter - dancing our cares away! Actually, dancing is exercise which is also why it helps me. I'm just letting the music pour through me and get lost in it, singing at the top of my lungs! Next time you're feeling low, having "one of those days", turn the music up and get your silly on!
