Enjoy it while it lasts.

Famous last words right?
Enjoy being a kid.
Enjoy being in high school.
Enjoy being in college.
Enjoy being single.
Enjoy being childless.
Enjoy being young.
Enjoy the kids while they are young.
Enjoy being retired.
The list is long and goes on and on.

Enjoy every minute of it right? The words were coming out of my house as some just left for vacation. Didn't they just have a vacation? Good for them right? I am a stay at home mom, technically every day is considered vacation for me right? No, not really. I don't get to see anything different than my house, my town, my neighborhood. The beds are made while I am out sight seeing, the suit case isn't packed with clean clothes, there are chores to do and dishes and meals to prepare and life coming at me from every direction. There is no flight to an exotic location. sigh. It is what it is for me, right now, maybe forever. I enjoy traveling. I want to show the boys the world but... but what? Things just happen. Have happened.

I have been stressing too much lately. Neighbors on my last nerve. Lenders. School. Jobs, schedules, headaches, this and that. Wait and worry and in the end it all works out as it is suppose. In the end it all happens for a reason. In the end there are just some things I have no control over and I have to just let it all go. So I should even enjoy the worry right? Enjoy having too many irons in the fire. Enjoy that options I have. Enjoy the time.
I do not enjoy the worry. I would like things to go more smoothly.
I would enjoy a vacation. I would enjoy smooth sailing on house purchases and schedules.
I'll try. It might be easier from a different local but for now I have to sit and worry here in my little rental house. I'll enjoy while I can and try not to roll my eyes too much while I do it.
