This month has been absolutely, insanely, busy. Considering, I think I have maintained an upbeat outlook on the kids, work, home, and family.
I have so much on my plate that there is really no option but to just smile my way through it. And laugh. What the hell difference is 11 days going to make at this point? I might as well have fun.
It certainly helps that I've taken two days off...much needed, but also necessary in terms of familial responsibilities. I think that has been the key: taking time for myself. Now-that said-I am pretty good at taking time for myself, but I think making the most of that time is the difference. I have been more conscious of 'being in the moment' during yoga, my runs, or even when I go to sleep. This means not making mental lists, planning the next few hours, or analyzing every word I uttered that day. I make a point to just enjoy...and let it be about me.
I've also rediscovered the naps.
