Last week I wrote about my season of life.
And I used an example of a short workout video that I tried to do.
One week later… it reminds unfinished. I have not completed even another second of it.
The following day my kids were home due to a storm. My husband was home working so my day was spent trying to keep them happy and relatively quiet.
Thursday I had my little ones check up which involved shots 😦
Then I went to PT for 2 hours . 1 hour of regular PT and then an evaluation for my back.
Friday I needed to take my daughter for an eye exam at the children’s hospital ( she’s only 4 so we couldn’t go to the local office)
Saturday and Sunday and Monday were a blur of mostly happy busy weekend stuff.
And now it’s Tuesday.
I am fortunate enough to be able to laugh it off.
But I wonder why.
I find time for so many things, but unless I have an appointment I don’t find much time for myself.
I find time to help my kids with all the thing, help my husband… but I put myself last on my list.
I have found ways to cope though.
I make sure I drink coffee I like. I listen to music I like while I drive my kids back and forth. I try to take in the moments… knowing that this won’t be forever. I try to walk while waiting for my kids at their OT appointments.
I do need to find some more balance though. I did the dishes while my baby happily played in his playpen…incould have done something for myself instead.
I didn’t do for myself…and I didn’t finish what I needed to do…maybe I should have just done a little more for me.
Hard to say…even know writing this my thoughts are a little scrambled because I’m tired… and being tired isn’t helping my motivation either.
Tomorrow I’m going to put my workout on my actual do to list. And I hope I will finish it….even if it takes me the entire day to finish.
