Can one have it all??

First off, my apologies for no pictures lately. My camera's batteries are dead, and frankly I haven't had time or interest in getting new ones yet. So, it may be a while longer before there will be new pictures of Tuks in action.

Today, I ran a 5-mile race at noon. My friend E came over and brought Tuki to watch her Mama dieing.....It wasn't pretty. I hurt more in this race than I have ever in any other race I have ever ran. Good thing it wasn't my first or I would give up the idea of racing again...ever!!! It was a sunny, warmish day and over 800 people ran the course. There was a hopping party after and Tuki, E and I had a good time, then we came home, E bought, and then we ate; PIZZA. After, we took the dogs for a walk while Tuki had a wagon ride, and finally we visited neighbor A.

Tuks is sleeping, Mama is tired, and hopefully E had a good all around day as well. All is cozy in Snowville...........

A friend told me that it is impossible to "have it all".i.e. be prepared to run a good race, be a single Mom, prepare healthy meals, work full time, on and on it goes, etc., etc., etc., ..what do you think???????

  1. For me it's the housework and home maintainence that goes first. Unfortunately.
    And I hate that! A housekeeper, if only part time may be the answer.

  2. I think it depends on what "all" means to a specific person. My "all" certainly isn't necessarily what the next person's 'all' is. I am pretty comfortable with what I have on my plate on a day-to-day basis (I'd sure like my two boys home now, though!), and my "all" has become simplified over time. But, it's give and take too; some days are bound to be better than others.
