Feeling kind of "blah" today. Like I'm in a fog. Call it post-Thanksgiving blues or whatever, but I'm desperate to get back on track. Physically, spiritually, mentally.

It might be the copious amounts of food I seem to continue to consume, post holiday. It might be the overdose of football...something I was pretty convinced was not at all possible. It might be the lack of discipline to exercise for several weeks now, or the simple and sad truth that I tend to lack spiritual discipline during holidays and vacations.

Certainly, the whole adoption process isn't helping matters. Things are not exactly moving quickly. Rumors float about the adoption blogger world of just how long things are going to take, and frankly it's depressing. Today's one of those days where I'm just tired of waiting. I want to hold my kids.

It's no single thing that is causing my blahness - it's the cumulative result of all of them.

And yet I know that I'll soon snap out of it and all will be well. I'll stop consuming food at a Kobayashian rate and will cut back on the pigskin as well. I'll start exercising again and digging into Scripture. I'll stop staring so much at computer screens and television screens, and pay more attention to faces and creation. And even though I have zero control over our adoption process, at some point we WILL get our kids and the wait and frustration will be well worth it.

I am blessed beyond all reason. God, disturb my slumber.
