Balance ✨
Something I have been struggling with lately.. when I feel like I have a good work groove going on, I feel like I’m lacking on being a good mum. When I’m focused on being a good mum and doing my work, the house seems to slowly turn into a tip. When I’m keeping the house tidy and making time for Joseph, I feel like I don’t have time to do my work. Argh!
I know in reality, Joseph doesn’t notice if the house is a mess or if I’m a bit busy, he doesn’t mind.. the work will always be there to get around too and I will find the time. But I get myself all stressed trying to do a little bit of everything and sometimes that’s just not possible! 🤯
So last week I spent some time away from my phone, my screen time was down by several hours (!!) and we just rolled with it, we spent a day outside at The Abbey and out walking, we went to the Zoo, we had an afternoon at the beach, spent lots of time in the garden and it was just sooo enjoyable!
The house did look like a storm had flown through it quite regularly, but I feel like I learnt to just accept it and do what I could and nothing more. 😌
So I guess this is just me having a bit of a moan/explaining why I haven’t posted and have been quiet on stories. But this is also a reminder for you too, to take some time out if you need. If there’s something in your life that is making you overwhelmed then have a shift about. Take care of yourself and give yourself permission to rest! 💫
