Tired is not my norm, but I realized that in one week's time, in addition to my usual work schedule and kid schedule (swim lessons, homework, football practice, etc. etc.) I had:
- Traveled to, toured, and ran a half marathon in Berlin
- Traveled back to Amsterdam on a 5 am train after a long night of flight delays in Berlin and Frankfurt (photo above was snapped on the 5am train)
- Stayed out late catching a world class European football match
- Experienced an amazing Matisse Exhibit (I dream of the piece above)
- Packed the team for a ski weekend
- Woke up at 4:30am so that we could travel to, tour and have brunch in Innsbruck
- Drove up to Pitzal, an Austrian Glacier
- Skied all weekend

I am optimistic that life just gets better and better. But when I look at the list above I wonder, how could it? When I am old and truly tired, I hope I have access to this blog and I read this post and I remember what it was like to live a week like last week filled with my family, friends and experiences. It was awesome. Feeling grateful. And tired.
PS - how scary are these signs?
