Ahead

I did it! I found my pace! It is Sunday and I didn’t leave it all till now. Anything I do today is extra. Maybe I will read a book or go on adventure, or nothing! Only took a month to get into the new groove. My brain of course says, “ oh spare time huh? Maybe now would be a good time to start…” insert lengthy list of all things I have wanted to start. I will just take the win for now.

Hustle and bustle is real and more often then not we have to fight to get it right. Pushing against a clock that has no give, that is me most of the time. Really the clock is just one we create. The element of time is ever moving forward, but what we put on the plate of our day is within our control. There are always going to be things we have to do. I always had the to do list, but when my daughter suggested a, what have you done list, it is far more rewarding. Nothing feels more disappointing then a list that never ends.

I only write down crisis level to do things. I could dig out a journal of my lists from previous years and there are things in there that are probably still not done. My agenda of items were overkill. I would scan all the spaces and write down everything that I wanted to accomplish, very unrealistic. I had to change that obviously. You have to have down time and fun. When your days off are spent racing, you will burn out pretty quick. I like just one day for nothing, you owe it to yourself. If you don’t have to, don’t!
