Last week I was out sick just about everyday. I am happy to report that I am up and running (though not literally) once again.
This week, Robina and I have been walking. We do want to eventually have the walking turn into running, but through our little exersions, I am learning that I am not as in-shape as I had once so foolishly thought. We have been taking our little men on slow treks through Duncan Park. The first trip Knox screamed the entire time. It happened to co-inside with naptime. The next time, we were a bit more prepared. We strolled in our too-flat-tired-stroller while listening to "My Boogie Shoes" on repeat on the cell phone. Knox is turning out to be the biggest music nut I have ever met.
Yesterday Wesley went to Brookhaven to once again work on his CD. I am glad that he is making this a reality. We have been looking forward to making his CD for so long. Also, I'm glad that he is able to take a break from his job to work on music, b/c when he is away from music for so long, he seems to be burndoned. I can understand this, b/c when I am not able to write or paint or any sort of expression, I get burnt out.
I have been reading Edith Schaeffer's "The Hidden Art of Homemaking" lately, and I highly recommend it. It has proven to be an excellent tool to help me think more wholistically of the Kingdom of God and my daily life and how creativity can (and should) fit therein.
I am trying to find some literature by Anne Steele, and have not been able to find anything. I have googled her, but nothing substancial appears. I see that her hymns and collections exist, but nothing seems to be available online. Strange. Please let me know if you know anything to the contrary.
I have begun to journal again. After about a year hiatus, I am returning with a vengeance. I have misplaced my former journal...still in boxes in storage at Dad's...but I have a new one, and hopefully, once it is full, I shall find the former and resume where I left off.
