Can you feel the rhythm?

Being by myself is wonderful.  Truly by myself.  There isn't someone in the next room.  Well, actually my son is home, but he is napping.  Somehow I feel lighter and more motivated when there is no one else home.  Why is that?  Perhaps it is because it is just my energy in here.  Perhaps it is because I give myself permission to do what I want without worrying about other peoples expectations.

Today I feel like dancing.  I have some funky music playing over satellite, the "Chill Lounge" and I feel like closing my eyes and just moving to the music.

Maybe I will...but I will have to close the blinds first.

Do you ever feel this way?  Would you close the blinds?

Santa is Scary?

Okay, this Christmas season is officially over.  Its time to take the decorations down.  Part of me doesn't want to.  I love how it looks and I simply love the season.  At the same time, I am really ready to get back to "normal".  I have been coming up with all kinds of excuses not to take it all down.  Maybe its also part laziness. 

So, as a final ode to Christmas, I will post my all time favourite picture of my son during this festive season.  Now, you may think me a bad mom for loving this, but I simply can't help it.  I wonder, do all babies cry at Santa?  Chase was seriously afraid of him.  I snapped two pictures quickly, before going to comfort him.

Oh dear, check out those tears...poor guy was very afraid of Santa.
