Today

Today I just want to write.... 
 
I want to forget the fact that I haven't been blogging as much as I used to... Life is different now. 
 
I have a daughter... three dogs... I coach softball... I also play softball... I essentially run three businesses.... 
 
So blogging has certainly taken a backseat in my life....and I just need to be OKAY with it.. 
 
Give myself grace with it...  
 
And I have ALWAYS stated from day one that you'll never see blogs posts from me that don't actually 'matter'.. I'll never post every.single.day. just to keep my SEO up. 
 
And maybe that makes me a terrible hustler... 
 
Today I just want to write.... 
 
I want to put on Matchbox 20 and remember myself 20 years ago. 
 
The little girl scribbling in her journal... 
 
Scribbling about boys... about feeling ugly.. and how I'll never amount to anything.  
 
I still remember the feeling of the pen writing those words.  
 
As lost as I was... you know.. deep down. I still knew that I mattered. 
 
That I actually didn't give a shit about being ugly... because I felt 'cool'... in my own way. 
 
Today I just want to write.... 
 
About all of the shit I feel like is on my to-do list.... 
 
About all of the huge life changes that are about to take place for our family.... 
 
About the big bucket list items we're trying to cross off our list this year... 
 
And about how it never seems to happen on OUR time-schedule.... 
 
Today I just want to write.... 
 
About how funny God is... 
 
Haven't you ever felt like He's placed something on your heart... only to remind you to wait on HIS timing. 
 
He does that a lot with me... HEY SHARON.. THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN... GET EXCITED.... 
 
But be patient.... My timing is so much more perfect than yours.  
 
I just want to remind myself to be patient today.... 
 
And I also want to write about how the hell I even wrote any of this... how did I go from Matchbox 20... to God telling me to be patient... 
 
See... this is why I write.... I had no idea I needed to hear that... 
 
Just kidding.. I did.. just didn't want to admit it. 
 
I'm so funny....  
 
but not really...
