...one little word...
i resisted. at least i tried.
Ali E launches her One Little Word Project like she does every year.
and i resisted to join in.
me, who usually signs up for EVERYTHING!
but this just didn't speak to me or inspire me.
although i LOVE Lisa Leonard's necklace she created for the project...
and plan to get one when Bean #2 is born
and is given a name :)
but i am side tracking....
so while blog surfing
i came across this blog
who i met in Shimelle's Blogging for Scrapbookers class
another one of those things that i sign up for b/c i always sign up for everything :)
and she chose BALANCE
and it spoke to me!
i have always struggled with BALANCE!
probably b/c i say yes to everything and always take on to much
but not this year!
this year i am going to try find BALANCE with it all:
Work- create a schedule and stick to it
KLP- create a schedule that works with the goals i want to achieve and doesn't interfere (too much) with the other important aspects in my life
newborn- make sure she is given my full attention while on Maternity Time. this is our time together
Bean- continue to give her all my love while welcoming a new addition to our family
Zack- SCHEDULE date nights! i am hoping this time around (not being a first time mommy and all) i will be able to leave the girls so Zack and I can have date nights!
Money- it SCARES me to look at our YTD earnings. Where does it all go? We've got to get a a handle on this, create a budget and stick to it so we can achieve the things we want in lfe.
Exercise- make time to get back in shape after the lil one's arrival and throughout the new year. get creative with it so that it incorporates the girls, sophie and the family
Friends- we've been pretty good about scheduling playdates. would LOVE to keep it up.
Computer time- oh boy! this one is going to be HARD, so very hard for me.
Creativity- i would love to attend a crop a month or set aside a night a month to scrap my lil heart out or do other crafty things. i foresee this one staying at the bottom of the list...
i just did a Google search of BALANCE and rediscovered that my astrological sign, Libra is represented by The Scales and/or Balance.
it must be a sign, right??
and...a scrappy share. i was kind of productive during this past weekend's VC at Scrapvillage.
making good ground on my JYC 2009 album
excuse the HORRIBLE scans...
