simplify

I have a word for 2014...

Doesn’t need much explanation does it?

 

It simply means, if you come to my kid’s birthday party, you might get store bought cupcakes.

If I give you a gift, it might not be handmade.

If you ask me to do something, I might say no.

Things like that.

 

If you know me at all, you know that I like to have the best parties, the best gifts, be involved in everything, etc.  And it’s finally caught up with me.  I have been really sick twice in the past six weeks and I chalk that up to simply not getting enough sleep. 

 

I can say that I almost never sacrifice time with my family to do all these projects, I do them after the kids have gone to bed. 

Did I mention that we have two night owls who stay up until around 10 o’clock most every night. 

And I get up at 5AM to exercise before work.  

So by the time I get my projects done, that often times puts me at 4-5 hours of sleep a night. 

My body is speaking up and I am finally listening.

 

Plus, I’m looking forward to a simpler, dare I say it, slower paced, year!

Like yesterday, I finished a book…that I started six months ago.

 

So, I’m just telling you all this because, well, I don’t know…my blog may get really boring while I’m busy being simple!

 

Happy 2014 friends!
