Is This Normal???

I am having a HARD time focusing today.

I KNOW I should get up and get the laundry going... I should be making the grocery list and planning this week's dinner menu... I should be planning my son's birthday party... the list is long of the things I SHOULD be doing!!

Instead... I sit here at this computer... looking at pictures from our trip to Uganda... zooming in on EVERY picture of the faces I have come to call my son and daughter...

I sit here and search blogs for adoption stories... hit refresh every ten minutes to see if my "blog" friend (who's girls I have fallen in love with) has a court date yet... I search for adoption information... look up facts about Uganda... visit websites of organizations that help orphans...

I KNOW I should take care of my responsibilities here...

but... my heart feels very far away.... there's a longing in my heart that brings tears to my eyes... it makes it hard to concentrate...

Is this normal? or Am I being lazy? or Am I physcho!?

Well... normal or not... I'm off to get the laundry... even though... my heart is somewhere else...
