You may remember that awhile back I read The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho and decided to take a good look at my life and dreams. I’m interested in L-I-V-I-N-G as opposed to existing and am convinced that there’s a better way to meld the life and dreams that I have.

I guess this is just a long way of saying I’ve been feeling introspective lately. It’s such a weird place for me to be. I’m usually the sassy go-to girlfriend, the life of the party, the social butterfly reading / commenting / posting and flitting around in general.

Strangely I seem to have lost my game. I wouldn’t quite call this place depression, but it’s definitely not sparkling effervescence either. It’s like I’m in a holding pattern and my usually quick wit has deserted me. (Let’s all pray that it’s a temporary condition)

Busy life with hubs and our three kids is still going on and I find that when I do have some free time, (when I’m not torturing myself in hot yoga classes) I’ve been spending it pondering.

No epiphanies have occurred, and no major changes have taken place. I’m sort of mellow though and haven’t been making too much time for posting.

And when I do make it out and about to all of your lovely blogs I just can’t quite muster commenting. I hope you can forgive me and stick it out as I go through what I can only describe as “percolating.”
