stepping through the muck

for the past week and a half or so i have felt so stuck. there is so much to do and i just don't even know where to begin. usually i have plans devised in my head. during the duller times of my day, walking with the kids or driving somewhere, i'll be busy planning in my head. then when the time comes to get down to business, off i go. last week i found myself wandering around the kitchen when it was time to make dinner. back and forth from the cabinet to the fridge, doing nothing. i couldn't even figure out what to do first. 
i think it might be a bit of  burn out. henny is now so wildly on the move that i can't leave him for a minute. he is climbing and falling all. day. long. we are also in the middle of the birthday season. right in between henny's birthday extravaganza and bee's upcoming celebration. i know maybe i'm going too all out, but i just can't help it. things seem to also be moving real fast here. as soon as i clean something up, oops there goes a peach smashing on the floor!
i'm hoping that after this past restful, long weekend i can get my head straight. i want to enjoy this time while i also do all these things that are important to me. last night i broke through and made bee's birthday crown. it felt good to do something, start to finish, all in one night. it also felt good to just make something.
more birthday things to come later in the week, including a full fairy ball round-up.

*btw, through all my haze i still found plenty of time to google all different things about sarah palin. i am obsessed, it's official!*
