Break Time - a blog to clear my head

I'm currently sitting in my kitchen nook attempting to parent (from a distance while the girls run around in the living room) and do research/study for a class that I am teaching tomorrow night entitled: "The Deep."  I guess I'm taking a little break.  My mind is on sooo many things other than the DEEP...  this blog is about things on my mind right now.

According to dictionary.com DEEP (as a noun) is defined as:
the deep part of a body of water, esp. an area of the ocean floor having a depth greater than 18,000 ft. (5400 m); a vast extent, as of space or time; the part of greatest intensity, as of winter.

...the part of greatest intensity...  hmmm...

thoughts, thoughts and more thoughts...  BSSM homework; catching up to do; home school lesson plans to do (I am loving Confessions of a Homeschooler); financial paperwork for Mom to do; financial issues for my sister to do; readying ourselves for a trip to SF today for Ari's bday; teaching this Deep class tomorrow night; my anniversary plans (we're celebrating SEVEN years in a couple of weeks!); laundry; dishes; being pregnant; finding a name for newest family member; making lunch for the kids; other family issues; getting warm...  my toes are quite cold.

Other thoughts:
I like these recent pictures of us/me from Jorge & Hasina's wedding:

And other thoughts: I think I would like to make crepes (maybe for lunch with some spinach).  I just ran across a crepe recipe on some scratch paper that the girls and I were using to do some painting this morning.  It's from  The Pampered Chef Cooking for Two & More cookbook.  I have never made crepes before.  When I was in grade school I would sleep over at a friend's home.  One of the greatest expectations sleeping at her home was the inevitable crepes the following morning.  Her mom served them with peanut butter and Karo syrup.  I can hardly believe I ate that now that I think of it but MAN I loved them!
OK.  Enough for now... I need to get warm, do some laundry, make some lunch and get back to work.

Perspective.

Rain coming down.  Wind blowing.  Sleep evading.  Boxes multiplying.  Peace.  Joy comes in the morning.  Blessed are the hungry and the thirsty.  Deep calling to deep.  My soul cries.  A longing.  More.  A drink for me has become a river out of me.  Come up higher.  2010.  Higher this year.  Songs of deliverance.  New songs.  Grace.  More grace.  Spring up O' well!
It's a beautiful day.  Life has been put into perspective for me this morning.  I am grateful.
