Hickory Dickory Dock…

When I was growing up I always wondered why my parents didn’t have different hobbies outside of yard work and house cleaning. From what I remember, they seldom sat to enjoy just being, and really didn’t have additional interests outside of me or our family.

After recently becoming a home owner I understand their separation from peace.

It’s been three weeks since I’ve taken time to sit down and write, read, doodle, listen to music, play guitar or much of anything for that matter. I can’t even fathom my schedule after my first or second child is born.

Maybe I need better time management skills, or more motivation, but between work, sleep, showering, shaving and eating I don’t have much time to focus on anything extra in my life.

To me, this is extremely disturbing.

It would be nice if the whole world would decide to just slow the fuck down for a while and enjoy being. I imagine that might solve a lot of peoples’ problems.
