Happy Monday my GOLDEN friend !
Are you sandwiched between competing responsibilities? Raising kids or caring for grandkids while also looking after elderly parents? Juggling a job that seems to trump family time? Running between obligations and wondering if things will ever “get back to normal?”
I totally
get it.
I am sandwiched between parents, grandkids, and work. Layer in working on my personal writing projects and taking care of rescue donkeys, I often feel like a thin piece of ham being squished by thick heavy bread.
Last night, I found myself in a fort made my my five-year-old granddaughter, eating lunch and reading books about cats. Each of the five grandkids had made personal tents around a “campfire” in the living room. It was a weekend filled with crafts, snacks, games, movies, popcorn, and my poor stiff muscles letting me know my big 60th birthday is right around the corner! I wouldn’t trade these experiences for
the world.
