Faults

I wish I blogged more.
I have so much to say so much of the time, but really, I just have no time. That sounds so cliche.
Truthfully, I probably don't take enough time.
Working full time, (two jobs in fact!) does not leave me much mental room to express all that is in my head.
I store it inside.
I talk about it when I can. In the car, with my mom, my boyfriend, my sisters. In between the living and shuffling that a working parent does with a kid every day. The working and shuffling, and the time between trying to be present with your kid, while you get your stuff done each day. I come home, so tired, drink a glass of wine..do the dinner thing, fall asleep with Aidan, and another day is over.
The words inside are in there...the me I like to share here, bubbling underneath the surface until after time it pushes up like a volcano.
I envy those that take the time.
I feel so good when I do, when the inner me bubbles up like it used to do: when I put pen to paper.
Thanks to grad school, I can't write like that any more. I must write now into the computer.
Funny, it seems even my writing mind is changing as my life changes, gets busier but lately even more fulfilling.
That is it.
I am loving, living and being a me that is so new and comfortable in the moment that I want to share these new discoveries-of being a single parent in a fulfilling and loving relationship, of making changes and creating new beginnings that are slowing making the future I never thought I was destined for.
It feels good.
but it leaves me little time to reflect in writing.
I need to play more with Aidan, and make time to write.
Ugh.

I hear you. I blog because I have to process this experience of single motherhood. There are just too many stories in my head and no one nearby to share with. More than once, I've thought that blogging (even for 10 minutes) has saved my sanity! Can't wait to hear more about your summer--
