Week in Review...

This week has literally been like Christmas in July!
Danced around the house to Frosty the Snowman and various other Christmas songs while nannying...all of Zoe's favorites! She wanted to play it...
And now...to add to the feel of 'Christmas' I have come down with a slight cold which started off as a terrible sore throat. The cold isn't too bad, but I feel like it is taking a lot out of me. I'm not supposed to get sick until at least fall! :( Boo.
However, I think this cold could be a symptom of my continued lack of balance...
My life has went from this:

Too much work...
To this:

Too much fun... Always on the go.
In a lot of ways I was thinking that to have balance meant to make time for relationships in my life. But now that I have made time for relationships, they have overtaken my life to some extent and not left any time for me and for rest and relaxation.

Instead of taking time to relax and bring balance to my life, I have been filling my schedule with country music...baseball games...and time with family and friends.
My view of the stage at Country Jam last weekend.

Even had a "Social Networking Hot Spot" Seriously!?! Can't people leave their computers for even a few hours!? Wow. That was funny and I had to document it :)

This past Wednesday I made a trip back to Wisconsin and went to an Eau Claire Express Baseball game...learned a thing or 2 about the game even!
My family...

The Express players warming up with some little t-ball players...or maybe little league players?

Me and my mommy-o

Cute little bat boys!

Lesson learned...the "Ks" hanging on the fence are not from some fans representing the Ku Klucs Klan with an extra "Ku" .... The K stands for the strike outs...the number of batters the team's pitcher has struck out during the game. NOT the number of players on that team that have been struck out. Good thing to learn! ha ha

Despite all my busyness, my garden has been doing great and bringing in 'slow moments' to my life.
My peas have arrived! :)

And my tomatoes are getting red! I'm thinking tacos this week to use up a few...


I only have a handful so far...

Goal for this week - rest more. play less. and still work hard. :)
