When it’s all done, when real life can get back to being real life, it’s kinda nice. I’ve been working for months on that prom party for 400 that I posted a few days ago, and then had some graduations to attend, of kids I am very close to, and now Monday morning, the world is back to regular. When I have a lot to do like the last few months, it’s like I breath in, and can’t let my breath back out until it’s all finished. I do believe I let out a two month big breath this morning. And ah, it felt amazing. No more worrying about making the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s come alive in three gyms. No more cards to make, no more dredging my computer for pictures, pressing my brain for memories and meaningful things that I want to say to the graduates. Graduation season 2014 is officially history. And even though I didn’t have a cap and gown-er this year, I gotta say, it was exhausting. File under “Congratulations, but I’m taking a nap.”

I'm a wife, the mother of two full-on adult kids, and a dog, a really, really good friend, a freelance advertising copywriter, and an accidental blogger. (I'm also a whole bunch of other stuff, but who's got time to hear about it.) You should come visit my blog (it explains the accidental blogger thing, plus you might like it). It's at gratitudeathon.wordpress.com. I write about stuff I'm grateful for (I'd be grateful if you stopped by.). View all posts by tonilansbury
