Today was my daughter’s last dance competition for the year. I feel pretty exhausted. It’s funny because I hardly had to do anything!  We got her makeup done here at home and then her friend’s mom picked her up. They have to arrive an hour and a half before their competition. Because I had to take my little monkey (my 4 year old son) with me, she offered to pick my daughter up, so we could come a bit later. It made less time for my son to have to sit and watch dance. Even so, he sat very quietly. He only started to get restless near the end. By then there were only a couple numbers left. So, I know I’m sick and not up to snuff (whatever that really means), but, man oh man, why am I so exhausted?? I am super tired of how slow my body is…I’m not sure that made any sense, did it?? What I was intending to say was that I wish I had a normal amount of energy. That I wouldn’t get tired so easily. I mean how hard is it to sit in a theatre and watch kids dancing? And she’s only in one dance! Many of these girls dance in a lot of dances! My sister’s girls are probably in about 8 dances. She had to be there on one of the competition days from 9:30AM until around 10:00PM! I don’t know how I would survive that! My daughter would love to be in more competition numbers, but that’s not happening this year! And, in many ways, that’s a relief, because I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t get through it without collapsing!! I’d have to be recruiting help from friends and family, even more than I do now…which would be over-the-top…

And, on that note, I wish to thank all of my friends and family for their continued love and support. I would be lost and alone without you.  XOX

I have this yuck feeling in the dark place under my heart…I can’t figure out why. But, it’s this sick feeling that my spirit is in a state of unrest…Usually when I have this feeli, it’s because something needed to be said and was left unresolved. Yet, I can’t put my finger on what is causing it. Hope I can sleep and it comes to me in my dreams, or I awaken knowing what it is, because I hate this feeling…yuck!!

Hopefully one day I’ll get it right, or at least have fun, while about it I write!!
