You ever been in the kind of quiet that is deafening? You know, it’s almost too…”loud”?

That is what I am experiencing right now and for this upcoming weekend. A retreat in “Being Still.”

As a mom, it’s so hard to be still. There’s always something to do and I will admit that when I am still, I’m watching television most of the time, just vegging out.

Isn’t that awful? All of the other things I could be doing other than watching television….see, there I go…not being still.

This weekend is all about me being a little selfish and taking time for myself and my relationship with God.

I can’t figure out what is making me more nervous, not knowing people, or the quiet that surrounds me?

Today I Am Thankful For:

1. Skype
2. new headphones
3. parachutes
4. the camera on my phone
5. my iPod
