Overactive Brain Seeks Lazy Summer Days

I have overactive brain disorder... No, that is not a real disorder. However, my mind has been swirling for days! Somewhere over the past week, someone pressed the "random" button on my mental music player as well as the one for my thoughts. I've been bouncing from one thought to the next with no "pause" or "stop" button in sight. I'm also randomly singing songs that were buried deep in my memory, while having no idea why these melodies were popping into my brain. My dreams have followed along with this theme. I awake with such a strong sense of chaotic reality that I have to take a few moments to determine what is real and what is not. I believe that I've been trying to absorb, accomplish, and admire so much lately, that I temporarily lost my sense of focus and exhausted myself in the process! I'm very grateful for the fast approaching lazy days of Summer! Just thinking of how much less stressful my mornings will be is enough to slow my overactive mind and just breathe. As this change in seasons occurs I'm also wondering if my kids will turn into Phineas & Ferb. The ideas that start with "I know what we're going to do today!" followed by projects their mom would never allow. My boys are all for that kind of activity. Hmmm.... maybe my Summer will be busier than I thought. Either way, I'm looking forward to it!

  1. You are officially a writer! Good luck with calming down that over-active brain of yours. BUT when you do find the button to make it stop...please let me borrow it :D

  2. lol I fear it will never be found. If a miracle occurs and a beam of light shines upon it with angelic music in the background, I'll think to share it with you first! :) I might add that I currently have that "Bow chicka bow wow, that's what my baby said..." song in my head...

  3. Thanks for stopping by my blog! I know that feeling of having an overactive mind! Mine works that way at night and sometimes I have to get up and just work in order to have peace!

  4. My brain likes to do this right at bedtime. The only way I can get to sleep is to write everything down on paper so it's out of my head. Hope your having a good week.
