« The light at the end of the tunnel. | Main | Update and a little drawing. »
All the boys in this house know that I'm a sucker for a kiss on the forehead.
And I guess that Annie's been paying attention (she started making kissy noises while I was in the tub earlier today and when I went to kiss her, she kissed my forehead instead).
Man, I love that girl.

well - is there a light at the end of the tunnel? how did your meeting go/
Posted by: elizabeth holder | July 27, 2007 at 08:29 PM
I've been there! It's a popular place and unfortunately, we all get to visit from time to time. Here's what I know for sure:
1. Just breathing is a good move.
2. Your worst day is so much better than many other peoples' best day (women are very hard on themselves).
3. Annie won't remember your stress, she will remember your arms - holding her, laughing with her, teaching her.
4. The fact that you care about balance and your family means you're doing ok.
I can be kind of morbid, but I like to go with the 'if I found out I was going to die within the year, what would I change?', it helps me focus and get the clutter in my life under control.
Good luck!

Hope your day went well. And was pivotal in the good kind of way.

I am certain that the folks you met with are going to love your ideas (we always do!!). Either way, feel blessed that God has placed in you a position to inspire and encourage others to capture their life and loved ones for all to remember. That is so cool!

Love your blog and how you tell the truth about everyday life and that it's not all easy. It's so refreshing to see someone else with the same feelings about work and kids.
Have a great day!!

I can so relate to where you are. I work full time away from home and then try to run by scrapbooking business from home...and try to take care of my kids, my husband, my house...and I can guarantee you, I'm not doing any of them well. There just isn't enough time nor energy to to it all. What seems to lose out is my kids....I'm just too worn out to do anything. It really stinks. I then beat myself up telling myself that I'm a bad mom for not spending more quality time with my kids, a bad wife because I can't keep up with my house...I truly know where you are...Guilt, Guilt, Guilt....I believe that is my middle name! LOL
Anyway, love your kit! Hope I'm the lucky one! Love your products...

he Tunnel at the End of the Light is the 2nd in the series of Time Hunter novellas and features the characters Honoré Lechasseur and Emily Blandish from Daniel O'Mahony's Doctor Who novella The Cabinet of Light. It is written by Stefan Petrucha.
The novella is also available in a limited edition hardback, signed by the author (ISBN 1-903889-44-8)

The Tunnel at the End of the Light, read by former Doctor Who actor Mary Tamm, is the third in the series and was released in February 2009.

That is so weird, I married my wife in Clearwater, FL as well Marylin! It was a wedding/honeymoon combination. Our wedding was very low-key and only involved our immediate families. We booked the rest of the week through iTrip because they offered great vacation rental vails. The trip was magical and so relaxing. I'm sure you had a great time while you were there as well.
