Life Needs to Slow Down

I love being busy, busy with friends, busy with my kids, busy with all the things I love but there has to be a balance. I have very recently just stopped doing everything, mostly because there was so much to do that I just did not even know where to begin. I'm in a new job, I'm still working my old job, I'm still doing all the things with my kids, I'm still trying to get my training under way for my half marathon. I'm launching my home based business so my husband doesn't have to work away so much, so many things are going on and my oldest is graduating from high school and I am trying to get that all figured out. Last month I felt I was in the eye of the hurricane, watching the world I am in spin completely out of control and knowing if I moved one step forward or one step backward I would be sucked up by Hurricane Busy and who knows where I would end up.  It was terrifying. It was not the first time this has happened to me. I took some time as I stoppe...

a change in the schedule

So I had my whole month of blogs planned out, I wrote what I could ahead of time and agreed to work on the rest as time permitted. Then, Life happened.  One boy needed to go to soccer, one needed to go to soccer and hockey, the flu invaded our house, another boy is teething.  So all that adds up to very little sleep for mommy+no spare minutes in the day = no writing completed. Plus hubby should have been home yesterday but now he's extended another week so what I thought I'd get done by having him home to help out is not getting done, so what does that mean for my poor little blog? Essentially it means my Christmas holidays will start after this week.  I have three more scheduled blogs ready to go and then that's it until the New Year.  I'll post a couple more blogs in the next two weeks but they won't be daily as I'm going to go on holidays.  I'm going to enjoy the time with my boys, and file away blog entries for the New Year!! I wish all you my reader...

Well I took a break

From life really.... but I am back now.  I was on Spring break and we were in Saskatchewan, which usually doesn't restrict me from posting updates, but I was busy and I did not feel much like writing. I have become very intra-personal as of late.  Reflecting on the things I would like in my life.  And how I am planning to achieve those things. I have come up with a couple of ideas and a couple plans of actions, but I still have some more work to do.  Getting bills paid and working more are top priorities, but I am doing well with those.  I have decided that I am the only one who can make my goals come into reality (who knew right?).  I just finished reading a friend's novel that has been published and it is a true motivator for me.  If she has the ambition and conviction and wherewithal to stick with her writing then I can do that as well.  I just have to organize my time and get better at sticking with my desires and not getting distracted. ...
