Inspiration

I am a lousy planner
I don’t write in advance
and I don’t schedule my post

I don’t do drafts or make notes on pretty little notepads
dreaming that the day will come when thoughts will flow
and the story will be weaved

It doesn’t work that way though I wish it does
which explains why I can’t write for a living

It doesn’t help when the memory is failing after 2 kids

Inspiration comes and goes
It needs to be seized
but time is a luxury with kids and chores
and this space goes into hiatus when life gets derailed (such as a last mintue holiday)

As by the time the dishes are done
and the last bedtime story is read
and when time is finally with me

I sit here thinking
wondering
staring

blank

Here’s one with the kids at Bachalpsee Lake overlooking the Bernese Alps
It’s our 5th day here and we have been hiking A LOT
The weather has been great and we are all looking like cooked lobster now, slightly peeled

Have great week ahead
