The Morning Sun is Shining Like A Red Rubber Ball!
Is it Santa Claus, or is it a turkey?
Now who doesn't love that song for one reason or another? heehee its kind of a family song for me. Amber and I laugh when our mothers sing it. I don't know why I thought about it. But it cheers me up.
I've just been thinking and thinking and driving myself up the wall. You know, sometimes you can think yourself crazy. I think about life and the things going on in my life and the things I love about it and the things I don't love about it....and I wonder what my purpose is and what I'm supposed to be doing and my thoughts are usually one long run-on sentence like this one. I'm not sure where I'm going with this, but, maybe I should take "Red Rubber Ball" as my new mantra: "I think its gonna be alright" b/c I do think everything will be alright. Life can be so overwhelming at times, you know, but situations always pass. Don't mind me, I'm just thinking things out as I'm writing. I really, really do want to know my purpose, what it is I should be doing with my life. I think its time for me to move on to a new chapter, a new beginning, but I'm not sure where to look for it.
Last night, Seth had the cutest homework assignment. He had this coloring picture of a turkey and the assignment was to disguise the turkey so no one would eat it at Thanksgiving. heehee! At first Seth wanted to make it into a football player, but I wasn't sure I could do a good helmet, so then he though about Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer but we ended up settling on Santa Claus. So I made the turkey a little beard, a Santa suit and hat and some black Santa-turkey boots. LOL! It was so cute. I love assignments like that.
In spite of myself, I'm getting excited about Christmas. I'm getting nervous b/c its so close but I'm excited about it as well. I've been trying to make a list of what I've already gotten for Seth and Lily, but I've forgotten what I put on layaway for them! Hopefully I can get it out by the end of the month. I know the kids are going to be SO excited when its time to decorate (in TWO WEEKS! Unbelievable!) Lily really, really gets into that. Seth does too, but Lily gets beside herself with giddiness when we decorate. She tries to do it all, resulting in the decorations ending up in some strange and low places. When they decorate the Christmas tree, most of the ornaments tend to end up crowded on the lower branches, its really very funny. I love that they get so excited about it though, I was and still am the same way. I hope I can get into the spirit this year..it just seems like the year has shot by so fast. Anyway, its coming, ready or not, and some people have already decorated for Christmas, and to them, I have to ask, "are you crazy?"
