My daughter is going back to school on Tuesday, and there is a sense that we are moving back to a schedule after a very busy summer. Our second child, a boy, was born which was (and is) a stressful and sleep depriving experience (it appears every child of mine has to have a birth story). We also bought a house and are in the process of selling our condo. The time has been swept up in baby caring, daughter entertaining, condo staging, storage locker filling, house planning, leaving August a blur of not sleeping and work. My work has been busy as well, but I think it might be more the fact I have a low energy level (or rather more energy demands), but I think I am getting my stride again.
That said, I haven't really been writing, drawing, or even reading. This is starting to change with each day as our son sleeps longer and we have started to build a routine again. I think Z going back to school will help a lot with that, as four year olds seems to crave patterns. Drudgery is a foreign concept to them.
In my lazy mood I have been consuming some videos on the You Tubes. Mostly game instruction videos (Radho Runs Through, Watch it Played, Tabletop, etc.) and some Web shows like Geek & Sundry and Comedians in cars getting coffee. The last one is a surprising initially, until you realize it is essentially a conversation between smart funny people filmed in a New York stylish way. Highly recommend.
I can honestly say that a full life is a good life. If I cut back on the You Tube, get a bit more exercise it would be perfect. That is what Autumn is for, my favourite season. Let September begin.
