Basically, you set a timer for five minutes and just WRITE. No editing, no stopping to second-guess yourself, just a free flow of your thoughts hitting paper....keyboard....whatever. She gives the topic and then you just GO. Then you link back to Lisa-Jo and invite others to join in.
So this is me....taking the Five Minute Friday challenge. Feel free to join in! Just go for it and write for five minutes on today's theme: Here. I'd love for you to share in the comments the link to your post. And be sure to link back to the Five Minute Friday hub!
Here.
GO.
I wish I didn't have to talk to him through a computer screen. I slept in yesterday morning because I've become so used to turning off my alarm, knowing full well he will wake me up at 6:15 with a freshly brewed cup of coffee made just to my liking. But he's not here. After more than 25 hours of travel, Evan finally arrived in Taipei and crashed into his hotel bed like a rock. It's hard when he's gone on these business trips because we miss him so much and also because I have a LOT of childcare to arrange, but it is very easy for me to forget that he's not gone on vacation. He is there to work and when it comes right down to it, I know he would rather be here.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the kids have been taking advantage of their grandma, playing her like a fiddle. Thomas woke up at 4 in the morning and ended up spending the rest of the night sleeping snuggled in on the couch under a blanket with his grandma. In fact, he is so attached to her that he has wanted very little to do with me over the last couple days! When Grandma is here, Mommy takes a back seat in the affection department. I can leave the kids knowing they are in loving hands. I rest a little easier when she is here.
We are on Day 3 of 18 of Evan being there....but I'm already ready for him to be back here.
Time's up.
