Autumn=Change
Aug. 6th, 2004 11:33 amFeels like autumn today.
Too much to do lately...I could update my journal more at home, but my computer's so slow that it feels counterproductive. Nevertheless, I'm updating at home right now, because I have had scant time after work these days.
My father is recovering from injury. He is ready to get back to work--in spirit. Still not able to put his weight entirely on his foot.
G. will be going to kindergarten in the fall. This is a decision we just made in the last few weeks. We were thinking of keeping him out for another year, or sending him to a preschool for a couple days a week. Big changes ahead for everybody in a few weeks. Plus, shudder, school shopping...at least I could conceivably go without him and just buy a bunch of clothes...he won't care yet if he's got the on trend sneakers.
Very busy with creating things and trying to rearrange my schedule in time for September, and all that stuff. It should make it easier for me to spend time in the studio, and even to walk him to school and then take a short bike ride before work. But there are certain ways in which it will make my other work more complicated. Hmmm. This means that I have a lot of energy focussed on harnessing certain situations to the horses of change. Much time spent meditating on which things will be eased by this transition and which present situations can be unstuck by it, if I let them; which drawbacks can be changed into advantages.
Will it work? God, I hope so. I'll let you know.
