I intended this to be a different post entirely.
The title was supposed to be:

Adios Azucar  (goodbye sugar).

I am giving it up for Lent.  
Even though I am not Catholic I think that there is such beauty in prayer and sacrifice.

But instead the title is just: 

Adios (goodbye).

you can find this print here

Because things in my life are a little unbalanced.
My husband needs me.
My kids need me.
Sleep needs me.

So I am taking a little break.
I know the world will keep spinning.
I hope you will come back.

I won't be gone long.  
Just long enough to play catch up.
Regain peace.
Order.
Sleep.

Blessings to all,
julie
