Homeostasis

Forgive me, please. I don't really have an excuse for why I have not been blogging, I have theories why this gap has occurred. One theory is that you know when you get into a certain rhythm and you just do things naturally because that is the way you did them the day before and the day before that and before that, well I have have fallen out of that rhythm. I blame the vacation for this one. Then I came back and did not make it a part of my routine and here we sit, almost a month later and I am making up theories for why I have not been blogging.

But the truth is I am just really sorry. Today is my first effort to make up for that, although sadly I have no pictures to post because Z is out of town and I need his phone to take any pics. But this little splurt of words will be my first attempt at un-doing what I have done.

Today I went to Ideal Market, the grocery by my house and a miracle happened. They had brie cheese on sale for $1.80 per pound. Now, I know that you have been in Mexico for awhile and my guess is they do not eat a whole lot of brie, so you may not be familiar with how much of a steal this is, but let me tell you, this is amazing. So naturally what did I do, I bought two of them.

And now I am very happy.

Also today my financial aid came in. Yikes! That was a scary one. It is weird to see numbers that big and remember they are referring to money, I have never seen numbers like that in my savings account or my checking account or on a check, ah maybe someday.

And for my last thought of the day... a quote.
"Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten."
G. K. Chesterton

I have been reading a bunch of kids books recently, I think my mind just needs something that I can push through quickly and that makes me dream. And yet I have been finding so much life in them. And so much about life. So much about how and why we love, where we can go, and that bravery is still something to be desired.
