Trying to balance family commitments, work, hobbies and staying healthy is not always obtainable. For every action towards balance there are internal and external events pushing back. These unbalanced events often turn out to be the best and worst moments in my life and the root of growth. They also remind me of how great a life I have.

The way Sundays should be...
Most of the time Sundays are taken up doing all the "stuff" that was not done the rest of the week (and for me still needs to be done). Today was different, we accomplished nothing and did things more important. We started by sleeping a little later than normal and went to church. After church Renee stayed home and cleaned up after our guests from Saturday and I went shopping for dinner. As usual I had less than a plan for dinner, I normally just look for what looks good and I know we can enjoy for 2 or 3 days. I finish shopping with the intent of making beef stroganoff, tabbouleh, grilled asparagus, peppers and summer squash , tempeh, chicken and a rustic French bread. Well as I'm checking out from shopping Renee calls and says my Mom and her Aunt will be stopping buy for an hour. I got home and talked them into staying for dinner (mostly by the aroma of cooking bread). So I did not get my bike ride in, but I did get several hours of great company and great food out of the deal. All Sundays should be so good. Now off to the Troop 755 Committable meeting. I may not have gotten a bike ride in, but I sure got my two hours of passion and I will eat well for a few more days.
