May Madness

I’ve mentioned that I’ve been in a blogging, and life, slump. Nothing is wrong! Everything is just fine. But nothing feels special. There’s nothing to get excited about, other than, of course, my son’s wedding at the end of July! Obviously, that’s a VERY exciting event. So exciting that I constantly find my mind skipping ahead to the wedding. But as we know- EVERY DAY COUNTS. The days between now and July 25th are just as precious as any other day. Furthermore, if I let time fly in this way, by the time we get back from the wedding my daughter will be starting her senior year. These are days I especially want to savor! But… easier said than done. I decided I need a project. Since blogging has been difficult, I’m going to get myself out of this rut by blogging every day for the month of May. I KNOW. I know how excited you are- think of all the cat photos you’re going to see! Seriously, I’m going to focus on good things, funny things, anything I’m noticing that makes the days distinct from one another. Well… there might be some cat photos as well.   “Monotony collapses time; novelty unfolds it… creating new memories stretches out psychological time, and lengthens our perception of our lives.” -Joshua Foer in Moonwalking with Einstein I’ll be kicking off this project tomorrow, with an Ultimate Coffee Date post. See you in May! Top photo by Rahul Pandit on Unsplash
