I’m a little late on this post because it’s like the 5th but better late than never. Summer is over and there are only a few months left in this year and it feels like this year just started. I had goals, I had dreams, and quite frankly none of it has been done. I spent the Summer being very lazy. I mean lazy to the point where I gained about 30 pounds because I didn’t want to cook and ate out a lot and slept all day long and didn’t move a lick.
This Summer I did learn that it’s ok to rest and I did that and even though I didn’t reach my goals I got to enjoy my home for 2 months. (August through the first week of June I’m in a car for most of the day carrying my daughter everywhere) Nothing new happened over the Summer. We did cook some new dishes in our cookbook, I finally worked on my backyard, and I read a few books. Other than that Summer is now gone since my kids are back in school. This was also the last Summer that my oldest has with me as he will be a grown adult next Summer. That is a little bittersweet for me but I can’t wait to see what the adventures of having a grown man will look like.
New intentions
As we enter into a new season I have a few intentions that I want to set.
- Get out of the house once a week and work in a new environment. I work from home 90% (I do have to go into the office occasionally) and I normally work in my bed. There is no dedicated office and my bed is comfy but this new season I want to get out of that rut and actually go to a coffee shop or the library and work.
- Be in bed by 12 midnight (even on weekends cause I don’t go out after dusk anyway). I had it set to 11pm but that didn’t work and I don’t want to pressure myself a lot so I think 12 is a much better time. I probably won’t sleep til 1 or 2 but I can be in bed reading no electronics.
- Take more pics for me. I bought a new camera and I want to be intentional about capturing memories just for me. I will be starting my project 365 back again in 2024 and this new camera will help me do just that. I want to get back to taking pictures just for fun.
What are your intentions in this new season?
