A Balancing Act




Don’t you hate it when you’re in a hurry to get something done and life gives you a red light? Last week, I made a decision on a publishing avenue and was ready to hit the gas. Then, over the weekend, we found our future home. And it doesn’t make sense to assume the publishing debt just as we’re in the process of securing a home loan.

So the good news is that we’ve found a house all three of us like. If all goes as planned, we’ll put a contract on it this weekend. I’m very excited about the idea of having our own place, and hopefully we can move over the summer before Grace begins her middle school years. (Aaahhh!)

It seems that life is always about waiting for something and balancing all the different priorities. And so now I must put my novel on hold again and wait until we get settled into our new home. We’re also anxiously counting down the days until we can bring our new puppy, Jake, to live with us. He is only a month old and must stay with his momma dog until he is eight weeks old.

We have a lot to be excited about. A new home, a cute little puppy, and finally being able to share my writing with the world. Everything just has to come in its own time.

It’s a shame we can’t fast-forward through the boring parts in life like we can watching a movie.
