I get the same question myself - even though my youngest is only in school for a total of 6 hours/week. My answer? Nothing whatsoever has changed with my schedule...except that I now feel a bit more stressed because I feel like I'm always driving someone somewhere!

I'm with Kwana, I think it is a strange question, as though you need to justify your time.

I guess I just mean to say, go ahead girl!

Love your post.
I have similar goals -- nothing makes me happier than to see the ones I love happy -- excepted I don't run, I swim !
And I love these poppies :)

Great answer!

As I looked at your photos this morning, I couldn't help but think of what Waldorf education calls "the out breath." During the school day, the kids move through a rhythm that includes "breathing in" (book work, concentrated study) and "breathing out" (movement, free play, being outside).

Looking at your photos today is my

Your photos are wonderful! I always chuckle when someone asks me what I do with my time. I'm never bored,never at a loss for soemething to do- I keep busy with friends, family, volunteer work, reading, blogging, organizing, cooking, working out...in other words, BUSY.

Beautiful pics. So lovely. It's funny the questions people ask as if the hours are endless when the kids are in school. Also as if you have to somehow justify the day for them. I find the day goes way to fast and your really don't have all the time you thought you had. Being a talented artist like you of course you would want to spend time on your craft and the day would go quickly and

UGH!!! that wildlife. what's the big deal. Recently, I've spooked a wild turkey and her poults and a deer. seriously though they were pretty far away. Hey Lecia - i read that book. I really liked the style and many of the ideas were spot on!

Sounds like a good Idea to me!

The stark contrast between the two rocks in the second photo (top to bottom) is stunning. It is almost as if the one in the background is stalking the one in the foreground. Many thanks.

We place so much value on "doing" that it is wise to have a moment to undo. I think one word of advice is that what you do belongs to you and brings you happiness. Do you know how you delight me with your photos and all that you "do."
Let us know about the book, I think am doing a lot of unconditional parenting over here! :)

Beautiful pics! I've found that the more time you have, the less time you have:) Somedays it seems as if evey minute is taken up with something - what's great is that they are "my" somethings. Time with family, time to help a neighbor, time for swimming my dog at the beach...all necessary and important but probably not the traditional "busy" day for most people.

It's amazing how the time flies and how easy it is to fill your day with little errands and putzing here and there. Enjoy and look forward to more gorgeous photos.
