Finding Balance
I am struggling with finding balance with work, kids, the house, and my mental state. After having a garage sale I have greatly reduced the amount of clutter, but still have two rooms in a state of chaos.
I spent a week cleaning and organizing my office in search of a quilt pattern, which I just ended up ordering another. I moved the chaos from the dining room to my oldest son's bedroom only to move it again last weekend to the office and dining room once again to allow a place for my Dad to sleep over the Christmas holiday. The last four months of re-organizing and purging has helped in finding some balance. Although that all came to a screeching halt as the last four weeks I have spent my weeks in Texas and my weekends home. I feel as if I am starting all over again in addition to now being behind in quilt orders.
Life happens, people need us, kids have schedules to maintain, and I am always putting myself last. In 2018 I hope to make more time for me. And I don't mean me working, me taking care of kids, me maintaining the house... I mean for me. At the age of 41 I realized that I need to be a priority.
Thank you to all who have supported me this past year, it has meant so much.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year~
