Striving to Underachieve

Hi gang, I believe it's Katie's turn to blog but she is next door playing with her friend Julia and Emma is off to gymnastics so that leaves yours truly - Again! I could wait and have Kate blog later tonight but I thought I would take advantage of a quiet house to write down some thoughts. (Okay, there is a teeny weeny glass of wine involved too but a girl needs to relax, right?)

Speaking of relaxing, I've never been very good at it. I have always been a type A personality - times 10. And it's a double-edged sword. On the one hand, well, you get a lot done, you "achieve" things. But on the other hand, you are constantly looking to achieve the next thing which means you sometimes forget to just relax and celebrate where you are now.

Sometimes I think we are all running like hamsters on a wheel with no real end in sight. You know what I mean? Anyway, I'm trying like heck to be a little more of an underachiever so I can just enjoy the present. I've been wracking my brain trying to bring bread + butter to the next level but maybe we're okay right here for today. You have all been so incredibly supportive and I know how many other deserving causes there are out there right now, especially with the devastation in Haiti. Thanks everyone for helping us be where we are...right now.
