I was writing a response to a friend’s blog post this morning when suddenly I felt the urge to expand upon it so here I am…
It’s the beginning of a new year. I am both tired and energized. Life is crazy. I am constantly in awe of how my life has changed since I stopped working, yet I still can’t find enough hours in the day to get it all done.
And that’s ok.
That’s what I’m trying to tell myself. I don’t always have to be on, to be going, to be doing, to be creating. Sometimes I just need to be.
I know I should be in planning mode. Planning for the coming year. Planning my business strategy, outreach plan and more.
I should be writing. Nightly. Coming up with great ideas for blog posts.
But right now…I don’t have a lot.
The kids are both in some sort of phase. They both are waking at odd hours of the night, which means sleep deprivation on my end.
I signed up to an exercise challenge for two weeks. It starts today. Maybe that will clear my head.
If not, that’s ok.
I’m just going to be for now. The rest will come.
It always does.
Absolutely! I couldn’t agree more. Sometimes you just let life happen for a little while.

So true!!! I often shut off my computer and phone and just hang with the family and that’s what recharges me or I go sit in my “lab” and concoct a new recipe or scent 🙂
ooooh, I wish I had a lab 🙂
I’ve been feeling similarly. This past week or so I have spent more time just being, and less time worrying and working. It’s made a world of difference!
I feel this way right now, I have just being, no real drive. I have been wondering if it is my new normal. I hope not. I do like just chilling
