The Weekend
13 Apr 2013
Today would be a good day to write and write and write. It’s warm, my head is full of ideas. There are few plans for other things.
But I won’t. I will shop and cook and organise. I will exhaust myself with the dashing to and fro gathering all the supplies to survive another week. I will waste the precious time with talk to myself about how my family needs me and that I be happier if I rearranged the furniture.
This is a waste.

Oh sweet. It’s so hard to fit it all in. The shoulds and the wants. I decided (last week) that maybe I just needed to change how I thought about my life. I needed to acknowledge that it’s ‘hard’ and that maybe it’s supposed to be. (Note, my life isn’t hard – I have a job, a warm place to sleep, food in my belly and a wonderful wonderful family). Anyways. I’m not entirely sure of my point. Sometimes how we think about things can influence how we feel about them.

My self talk needs work. Maybe I’ll address this one day. I need to. x

Sometimes it’s ok to just enjoy a day doing “the chores” without feeling like you’re losing a never ending race. Sometimes just doing that can bring you peace and perhaps mental and physical space to do something just for you later in the week. X

I need to work on my self talk. It’s getting a bit heavy xo

It’s usually a huge leap to step out of your life and into that headspace. I know the feeling intimately – and sympathise. Write soon, and be happy :)

I need to put it first. Put writing first, the rest of it can wait.
Trying again next weekend :)

Good luck. I’ll be doing the same x

Hope you have both managed to fit some writing time in. I have – and thought of you L. My writing is heavy going today though…typical!
