I seriously suck at time management. I see something shiny and I get distracted so bad. Like I jump on Facebook to check one notification and four hours later, I remember I was doing something. Senioritis is setting in hard core as I wrap up my classes and having an almost six year old keeps me hoping! But what makes me happy...THIS RIGHT HERE! The coffee cup full, the music going, the feel of the keys under my fingers as my fingers fly. No worry about word count or APA format, headings, double spaced, or citations...ugghhh!!! Only 3 more classes and I get a break before I take on a double masters program! 15 weeks of school and the Bachelors is DONE MAN!!!!!!
So what else has been going on in my neck of the woods? Well I got the position I went after work (WOOP), I am finally getting a handle on making this apartment a home and catching up on the slew of housework (Laundry day tomorrow). I also have been working on staying in my recovery from the food addiction and I am 80 days away from claiming 2 years in recovery from this!!! 2 years WOW!!!! I met Coach Tulin and in the 8 weeks since that I have seen a shift in my mind that was missing. Like I will get it for a few days and lose it.
But tonight, tonight there was a moment where I was posed a question that got the wheels turning. If I had to work doing what I loved and what made me happy 30 hours a week what would it be....it took me a minute but then it clicked by the end of the call...I would cook, I would plan, I would work on my virtual races, I would Mom (I am always mom first and before I sat down to write this I had a 5 min dance party with the mini!), and I would write. Not for school, not for anyone but me.
This is something that started as a hobby back in October of 2012 and it has grown into something that I love. For a few weeks now, I have wondered what was missing and why I could not dig back into what was working, this was one thing and the other I am handling in the morning.
So because I have to get to bed to get that AM workout done and to do all the things I need to do tomorrow....I am wrapping this for now.
I have a plan and I am about to start something major...I can not wait to see this unfold! Putting what is in my head and my heart into action! AHHHHHH!!!!! There are new recipes to review as I tell you all about the new foods I am trying and gadgets I am using to make them! There are new planner layouts coming as I move into my BIG happy planner...Summer fun with mini....OMG SO MUCH TO TELL Y'ALL!!!!!! But to tell y'all...I gotta live it first!
Okay, I am really going now (southern roots of the 20 min goodbye showing here...or nah?) till next time.... (and after 5 years I finally figured out to sign off...)
