Today is my day off. I am enjoying it with the kids!
Last night I went on a turbo cleaning spree and cleaned the whole house, it looks great! This morning I was able to wake up, make breakfast and play with the kids with NO cleaning to worry about! I was thanking myself the whole time.
I volunteered at our churches nursery, I start this upcoming Sunday and am committed to working in the nursery once a month. It will be a great way to get to know more families and to connect more. I am looking forward to it, AND I get to be with my little Evan pants!
Tomorrow morning at Toastmasters, I am the Table topics master. I decided that I will ask the said people to "defend where they live" and I will assign strange places to live...like a nuclear power plant, the dessert, Antarctica, the moon and such. It will be fun and interesting to hear the responses.
I am trying to muster up the ambition to take on my next project. Not sure if it will be painting the master bedroom wall or trying to sew the office curtains. I have what I need for both projects... Which bring me to my next thought. Last week at church the pastor said something that resounded with me... He said that a lot of times people say something/s or imply something about/to you and you buy into it, but it is not true. I have been thinking, I have often had the feeling that there was someone in my life that thought/implied I was lazy. When I look back even at this blog I realize...hummmm...I am not lazy. I manage to hold down a stressful career, to maintain a clean and functional household, 2 young children, 2 busy dogs, being involved with Toastmasters, Volunteering at Pine Lake Pastures, now starting at the church nursery, and doing my best to maintain and re-connect with friends as well... I feel like I do a good job balancing, that I have my priorities straight (my family and God as #1). I feel like all of this shows that I am in fact NOT lazy...which makes me feel really good about myself!
This being said, my daughter is asking that I snuggle her...someday I will wish I was able to so I need to get my fill when I can!
Cheers,
Beth
