I love a good book and clean sheets! Lately Clara has been staying up until 10pm, but I’m hoping this phase ends soon because I need some non-kid time!

I’ve found that writing in my planner has helped me to stay organized and to not expect myself to accomplish 80 things per day. Now I just write one or two tasks down and leave the rest for later! Also, getting up earlier than the kids is the WORST and I know I’m supposed to do it but I’d rather just stay up an hour later.

I think I’m going to start putting self-care acts down in my planner so I can treat them lik ea chore and ensure I make time for them. It’s such important stuff! I hope you get a relaxing weekend soon!

I’m so glad you can relate, because it reminds me I’m not the only one not able to manage this super-well! I agree, some days I feel so busy and then I realize that ‘busy’ meant I washed the floor a bijillion times and had no time for anything else. Bleh!

I feel totally the same way, even though I’m not at home with my girls during the day. Being a mother to small children is sooo rewarding but can also be so tiring and “busy”. By that I mean, yes, it feels busy cleaning the floor 18 times a day. It’s great to be able to acknowledge the things that still make you feel like you and make you feel happy. Even if you hit one or two of those things every day, that’s great! 🙂 Glad you had a rejuvenating and good weekend!!
