My grandma is back in town. We call her Mom-Mom. I'm so glad she's back. We go shopping and make my house look pretty together. The best part is when we just talk.
I have been feeling a little...stuck...lately. It felt good to talk to her about it. Talking made me realize while I'm stuck.
I'm a planner. I've always had a plan for my life and I just tweak it with the twists in the road. The problem with right now is, I never saw it coming. I knew I would be a student. I knew I will be a mom. What I didn't expect was the time in between. The interim.
Since I didn't know there would ever be an interim, I didn't make a plan for it. I feel like I'm standing at a fork in the road, but instead of there being two paths to choose from, there are many. Maybe ten, maybe more.
I'm thankful that I have choices. I'm thankful that I have a supportive husband with a great job that allows me the freedom to figure out what's next. Sometimes I think I need to be more aware of how blessed I am with that freedom that so many others don't have. And I need to be more careful communicate to him how thankful I am.
Because it's so much easier to focus on how overwhelming all of these choices are. I can be overwhelmed and thankful, cant I?
"When there is a mountain to climb, waiting won't make it smaller."
That's what the postcard that Mom-Mom left on my car the other night said. It so true. But what mountain should I climb?
