Life is funny

It’s amazing how quickly times passes. As a stay-at-home mom, you rarely get time to yourself. Then when you do, you have to learn how to use it. Initially I felt I should do housekeeping first & still ended up with no time for myself.

Then I learned to take time to do things that made me happy & started to find myself again. You can get so lost being a mom, wife, friend, daughter & sister that you forget who you are. Once your child starts moving around on their own & you realize that you need to make yourself happy or the isolation will depress you. After a long journey, I now understand that.

So once again, I’ve started picking up various hobbies which I interchange at will. I recently learned to crochet & have gotten pretty good at it. I’m also finishing the organizing & storing of 30 years worth of photos. Once I’m done, I can start making my scrapbooks & putting some photos into albums. Our son loves to look through the photos & I want him to grow up seeing where he came from.
