Yes, you--my friends and family who love me enough to read my blog even though my posts are very sporadic these days.
And I miss you--my time to read and blog and teach my children things and get my house organized and have coffee with friends.
And I miss you--my ability to go to bed by midnight and not feel guilty because I'm not getting things done.
And I miss you--my family, some of whom I haven't seen in a few months.
So I got a promotion this month. Most people are happy about that. I am feeling stressed and busy and missing my life. My old pastor who I used to work for told me once that just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you should. Lots of people tell me I'm good at this, but I'm still wondering if I should wear the shoe just because it looks on the outside like it fits. I may feel differently after the crazy holiday season is over, but right now I'm just missing my old life. And how are you?

I am sympathizing and understanding exactly how you feel. We really do spread ourselves far too thin sometimes. Sadly, it took trauma in my life to help me learn to say "no" to some things - even things that I know I do well. Probably still have some things I'm stubbornly hanging onto, but at least I'm learning. You are, too!
hmmm, you're in a tough spot. I bet the new year will shed some light on things. Hoping you settle into a groove soon. I miss my life too, but for different sorts of reasons. If you lose your life, you will find it: that's a promise. I'm starting to find my life again in a new way. grace and peac, jennifer
