time goes by like wildfire...

i need to start writing things down.

there are about 20 thing a week that i want to sit down and write about, but it seems like the time never comes.  in truth, the time could come, but i have regularly chosen and early night of sleep as opposed to burning the midnight oil infront of the laptop screen.  nonetheless...perhaps things will get easier in 2 weeks once i've completed my post-Georgia goal of my 100 mile bike race.  not a race for me per se- more a personal goal to get myself training this past summer, back in some sort of (cardiovascular) shape, and another tick off the bucket list until i set another goal.

....

today was one of those perfect sundays.  not perfect as in weather-perfect (it did rain much of the day), but perfect as in family activities.  everyone woke around 7:10am, slowly ventured downstairs for breakfast (we ran out of rowan's freezer collection of my homemade pancakes a week or two ago, so i stole the first hour of the day to make a double batch so i could stock up the freezer again for the coming week), then spent another hour or so just hanging out, doing airplanes on the bed, and teaching rowan how to perfect his back "massage" for mommy and daddy (which currently consists of pressing into our backs 3 or 4 times with the palm of his hand, and then lying on us and rolling back and forth- whatever!  any pressure feels good these days!).   then, we decided to venture out to the farmer's market and bulk barn (for candy for the ever-tedious task of toilet training).  there is nothing quite like tooting around town on our mountain bikes, kiddies nice and cozy in the chariot trailer, and just enjoying our own little heaven for a few hours.  yes, we got rained on (in truth- it poured!), but better than sitting indoors and staring outside at the sheets of rain.  returned home and feasted on some of the farmer's market vegetable bounty we got for lunch, family naps all around, and then swimming (in the rain), bbq dinner, and an evening indulgence ahead for glen & i- a yoga video in the basement, likely followed by a few episodes of Big Bang Theory.  Ah, sunday- love you- sunday.
