When I grow up

Somedays I wake to find thoughts of dishes, schedules, chores, errands and all the other mundane topics shoved to the back of my mind and replaced with the question I've been asked since I was just a wee one. What are you going to be when you grow up?
My birthday is just around the corner and this question is on both my conscious and subconscious mind. One day I have the elusive answer only to find I wasn't quite as sure as I thought and decide to rethink my decision. This leads to more doubt and then I do what I do best decide not to decide. Makes total sense right?

Maybe it's time to not wait to figure it out but go and try it out. I know that I will waste some time but I can help but wonder what mistakes I will get to make. Maybe, just maybe I will make enough mistakes to find my answer. Then the time won't be wasted and I will have new and exciting topics to write about. I will continue to write my attempts and failures and there results.
And so it begins...

End of Darkness

I know that many people (my husband) hear its the beginning of Daylight Savings and moan but for me it is time to rejoice. I count down the days to the shortest day of the year knowing that from then on the days will be light longer. I love waking up to the sun!
It means time outside which with all my boys is an extremely welcome time of year. I love spring. I am not a cold weather person so spring brings hope of warm days to come.
Though here in Idaho it will still be awhile before the "Snowbirds" decide it is warm enough to come back we do have days were we receive a glimpse of spring. Today was one of those days for which I am truly grateful.
