Saturday

 

My last assignment for trimester 3 2014 is finished and the submit button hit. I have a couple of weeks before trimester 1, 2015 kicks off and this week is my first week that I am back to part time hours.  I have been looking forward to this, and almost immediately felt my world right itself. Everything feels more manageable. 

I read a quote last night, which hit the nail on the head for me.

that was the day she made herself the promise to live more from intention and less from habit. ~ Amy Rubin Flett

With every part of my life, beginning with my family, my kids, I want to ensure I am living life intentionally, not simply existing.

I have thought over the last couple of weeks about the things that bring me joy.  An outing with my family.  Seeing my kids excited.

A candle (my favourite scent) burning in the house. A good cup of coffee, or a chai latte (not made with syrup).  A magazine.  A book.  

I guess life has been so busy over the last year or two I feel I got a bit lost and was not being the best I can be to either myself or my family.  I'm looking forward to getting back there.
