Hustling and bustling since I have been back. No fun running around and feeling the stress that is all around me. Still not feeling 100% since the trip. A bit unbalanced literally. Trying not to get caught up in the craziness of buying and buying more. When do you say when. Kids are older and price tags are more money. But when do you say enough?
In the past, I made it a point not to out do the other parent. I don't think I could if I tried. My kids have always had more then enough. Looking at the pile of "stuff " I have for them I am content with what I have but have I taught them the art of being grateful for what they have and what they receive? Not so sure of that one. Oh my kids are not brats but have they ever known what it is like to go without? Do I?
One to ponder I think. I truly believe I have enough "stuff ". Well I would like a large fry pan.(hint) Because when I have the extended family over I have to use two fry pans for the potatoes. But for the most part my "wants " in this world are few. Stuff doesn't make or bring happiness. We create it. Knowing what one is grateful for-that is enough!
I wish you "enough".

My 5 miler was enough for me today. But new shoes and sock are always nice.
