Balancing

Isn't life all about balancing? We balance our time, our money, the things we eat and pretty much everything else. Right now our lives have felt very out of balance.

Homework seems to be dominating our time right now. They boys have their every day homework with projects on top of that. I have work and projects and volunteering and all such "mom" stuff. Damon has work, cub scouts, and "dad" stuff. The one thing that isn't getting enough attention is, "Down Time". The only one who seems like they have a pretty nice life is Lily.

In a way to balance my time I try to break it up, but when I feel like I don't do one of my normal things because I spent more time with another thing I have guilt. It's way frustrating. I'm working on it.

Tuesday I drove on Lily's field trip to the apple orchard's. It was nice, but with lots of wasps. I don't like those. Of course, now that I drove on this field trip I will be driving on everybody elses too. Must keep things balanced.

Well in a need to spend more time with my kids and not let work get to out of control we went to the Science museum for a couple of hours on Oct 30th. We had lunch in Balboa Park and then explored the museum. We all had a nice time.
