We are wrapping up our second week of summer vacation. Last week was incredibly lazy. We stayed in our jammies until noon. Some days Beanie (2) never really got dressed. The kids watched movies, played on the computer, swam and played outside. I read, played on the computer (blogged), swam and putzed around the gardens. At moments e.g., when someone came over and none of us were dressed, I would feel like a slug.
Looking back I could see we were all just exhaling after one of the busiest and stressful years of our family life. It was mostly good things, so I wasn’t especially mindful of the burden. I just kept sprinting. I will leave it at that since I get really annoyed when people go on and on about “needing to unplug” or I hear others bragging about “letting go” for their whole week of vacation. Blah, blah, blah.
All this to say, I am alive. My kids are home from school. I am committed to giving them my time and attention. Will have to fit blogging around that.
Nice blog. Keep it up …
Hi there
Apologies for posting an off topic question here.
I am invitation your views on ABORTION in order to present a case to help those in the developing world.
I personally see abortion as a NECESSARY EVIL and that unwanted pregnancy is not only a personal problem and it is also a very real problem for the society at large.
Do you think it is right to burden say a 15 years old school-going girl with a new life when she is yet to have any economic mean to sustain herself and obviously, most girls of her age are not mentally ready for a family life. Furthermore, is it fair to rob her of her career, aspiration, dream etc., in the name of preserving a life that is yet to be fully developed?
If you have an opinion, please email it to me at divinetalk@gmail.com or if you wish, you may post your comment here: Your Onion Counts!
Also, what do you think of the recent “Pharmacists Refused Contraceptive Prescriptions”.
Do you think Pharmacists have the rights to Play God?

Hi-My name is Gwen and I have made my way to your blog through my good friend Mrs. Fish! I just wanted to say hello and that I am enjoying your blog!
Nice little set of comments there.
Hope you are well. I’m envious of the relaxation I read about. I’m hoping to try it on next week at my mom’s/ friends’.
