Random thoughts

As life is going pretty well overall, I guess I wonder what my expectations for it should be. Sure, having a new baby is a major life change (and I can't say that I'm quite used to the idea quite yet) but I wonder if I should be expecting more or less of myself. I guess I expect "normal" to resume, and it never will the way I've known it in the past. A new normal will take its place, and that will continue to change continually (which means 3 kids waking up early and trying to figure out what to do with them, instead of two today). Sometimes I'd like stuff to just stay the same for a little while, but then I'm bored when it does. Hmm, never satisfied it seems. Maybe it's all because my thoughts are all over the place due to lack of sufficient sleep. Or too much time to think because nursing a newborn takes almost every hour of the day. I think I'll go make some coffee while the getting is good. Then maybe I'll try to sort things out....
