VETO

Lot's of things to post about. For one thing, I need to say thank you for all your support and kindness during my two weeks of R&R. Kday and I headed to St. Geezy for some mucho needed sleep and a little soul searching. I found my center again. I found a little piece of the old Sday.

A while ago I was toying with the idea of changing my blog to "My 3 Ring Circus" because of the chaos of my new life as a mother of 3. However, after a lot of contemplation and reflection of my place here on the world wide web... I veto'd the idea. There a million plus - blogs about motherhood and the daily musings of kids and life as a busy mom. Heaven knows I'm not the first busy mom. This little scrap of writing space is my notepad to fill with scribbling thoughts of the age old question of "who am I?" I wouldn't say I'm an identity crisis kind of gal, no, but I'm ever changing and growing. I'm in flux - so to say. So it shall remain "Finding Sday" because each day, each challenge, each accomplishment, each moment... I find a little more about myself and a little more about the person I hope to find when I search inside.

So my weekend away brought me great solitude and peace. The almost seventy two hours of not being constantly interrupted by a toddler or baby crying really allowed me to think and listen. I haven't had that kind of time to listen to myself in a long long time. I'd say... about nine months or so. I had a lot of listening to do... and a lot of reflecting.

More to come on the findings of my trip to solitude down in the red rock dessert of St. G.
As for now... here's a smokin hot picture of me after getting eleven and a half... count em again - yes 11.5 hours of uninterrupted sleep. That's like pre-kids kind of sleep. Or teenager on a saturday kind of sleep! It was awesome. And so was my hair afterward-
No shame.

So glad things are on the uptick! And happy that you had a good chunk of sleep. It makes all the difference.

Ha! You look so happy! I can't even remember the last time I got over 10 hours of sleep. Congrats! And I am glad you had a relaxing time!
