Bubble burst

For about a month now I have either woke up at the crack of dawn to go walk, run, or go to the gym. I have been very pleased with myself and  even more pleased with the way I have been feeling. More energy, rejuvenated, clear minded. Today I met up with my walking buddy Kami. She has two little girls at home still and lives just a few streets over so we meet up halfway and walk and chat about our lives. Its been great to have someone to hang with. I have missed my husband as he has worked the vast majority of the month. So I havent even gotten to really see him or talk to him but on the phone. So ready for him to be off this weekend. But anyways, back to my story. Kami and I had a conversation that lead me to think about my life as a whole. On my way back home by myself, I had this thought come to me "Life is good. Its not perfect but its really good right now. Simple in so many ways." Such a calm, comforting thought. Then I had another thought come to mind "When will the bubble burst?" I know what a downer huh. I had such a great feeling of happiness and then BAM! Another thought ricocheted and ruined my happy thought. But I do often wonder when will something bad happen in our lives. Our kids are so happy and healthy, Mitch has a good job, I am  able to stay at home with the kids. I have little worry in my life compared to some I know. It made me feel very grateful for all that I have in my life.
So today I celebrated the simplicity of my life by making homemade fruit roll-ups and some pesto. Yum! Our neighbors {we have the best neighbors}, have been giving us alot of peaches and melon, so I am using those up in the roll-ups.  Monique made the best pesto and shared with us a few weeks and so it spawned the idea for me to make some too with all my basil.My basil plants were out of control. Glad I made good use of them.
I decided to put that unpleasant thought to rest for now. Because life is good and I need to be enjoying the simplicity of my life at the moment and enjoy days like this. Days were I can just stay at home, with no makeup and my comfy pants on. Days were my girls can play outside and watch Tangled to the hearts content. Days that I can take pride in being a mom and enjoy my littles running around. So here is to yummy fresh food and happy thoughts for the day...
