How does one quit being in denial

I just realized that I've been in denial for a long time. It's been 4 days since we moved and I still have a lot to unpack. I am in denial that my tiny bedroom and living room still has obvious boxes that need unpacking. In denial that kids actually have to eat more than 3 times a day. In denial that I have to order a few more homeschool items for the new year. Instead, I've been blogging, participating in live calls, accepting chess on line and scrabble on Facebook games and catching up on my friends' blogs. Everything except unpacking. But I got tired of being in denial. So, I am going to town (have to go 5 mi out of the way since the creek we have to cross on a shortcut is way high due to heavy rains we've been getting here) to get a few groceries for the kids, that is. Because I am in denial that I have to eat too, LOL! So, to stop being in denial one has to make a step. Realizing that I've been in denial and too lazy is a huge step. Praying that we reunite with hubby who would most definitely make sure I stay out of denial is step 2. The rest i hope will fall in place, that is if I keep staying out of denial!

Anyway, I had a really fun start to my day and I wanted to blog about before I get to work, finally (well, the sun is shining after hours of rain and my vit D levels are finally up!). I tuned in to a live call on Grace Talk Soup (see badge on the right) where they discussed communication and cultural differences. I had a blast! I've done a live call before with Urban Homemaker interviewing Sally Fallon of Nourishing Traditions. But there was no chat or anything fancy. I felt like a super triple tasker! I was on a live call on my long distance phone, answered the local phone and chatting! What a start to the day. You'd think I'd be revved up to get a lot done afterward, but, alas! Rain kept pouring down literally dampening my industriousness.
JoJo, the host of the Grace Talk Soup posted a funny You Tube video to go with the last episode. I laughed so hard. My kids agreed with English being crazy too. After learning Russian and Romanian I can't side with them though. I think English makes sense, well, compared to Russian, at least, LOL! Enjoy the video too!
