Maintain pace, keep the peace
After a busy weekend full of Happy: anniversaries, birthdays, mommy celebrations, gorgeous weather, BBQ’s with friends, impending niece/nephew, deep sleep… and Not So Happy: communication glitches, unexpected hospital visits and worries, plan pitfalls, accidental baby bleaching, long drives and late night traffic jams beside extraordinarily fragrant fields (not in the good way – in the catastrophic cow caca way) with tired, cranky kids, frankly I’m ready for another weekend already.
But…
It’s Monday, so it’s make a list and get the gumption going time. Spectacular sunshine is exploding outside. I’m down to my sleeveless T and shorts, smiling and focusing on external speed and internal stillness. Ready for strength in the new week.
