But in January, I had no little time at all. It was all about work and I did not want to let that suffer.

I cried, I sulked, but most of all, I laughed a lot and breezed into Feb, and am looking forward to this funny month with fewer days. Plus, my 20th wedding anniv is staring me in the eye! :D Hugs and cheers to a fab Feb.

You seem to be in such a sensible frame of mind. February will certainly be a peaceful month only because you've decided to make it so.Obsessivemomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06659233519392456624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140698802730756464.post-22008910075121424312017-02-02T08:21:28.168+05:302017-02-02T08:21:28.168+05:30This post, and this past month of yours - remind m...This post, and this past month of yours - remind me of my Aug to Nov 2016. I was overworked and overwhelmed. I had to repeatedly remind myself to calm down and let go. It wasn't easy because I am a closet control freak, but that is just what I did, what I had to do. For my own sanity if nothing else. And it has made a world of difference. Hoping you have a more peaceful February.Shanaya Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08053129459391925174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140698802730756464.post-9686585948801493702017-02-02T03:27:16.070+05:302017-02-02T03:27:16.070+05:30There's only so much you can do in a day my de...There's only so much you can do in a day my dear. Don't be too harsh on yourself... Yes, acceptance is important... Acceptance to let few goals slip away, after all peace of mind is also necessary. And even then you managed to continue your reading.

I am very much similar to what you describe yourself to be and for me to be sitting at home with no real thing to do has been challenging. It was difficult to come to terms with myself and then later on I realised what you realised too. That is to slow down and take things easy. But mind you, I will tell you from experience. We can't take this slow life for too long ;) we tend to slip into our speedy selves very soon.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12689832075777772296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140698802730756464.post-47411972021899334152017-02-01T21:08:59.998+05:302017-02-01T21:08:59.998+05:30I have been lazying around on the contrary, I need...I have been lazying around on the contrary, I need to set deadlines and targets to keep myself on the track.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201944110009448855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140698802730756464.post-19065577256008058072017-02-01T20:43:56.910+05:302017-02-01T20:43:56.910+05:30I completely understand what you mean.

Last entire year I did not do as much of reading as I liked but then I said it's okay. I just didn't have the band width to cope. That realization helped me manage my emotions better. Like you said reading and writing are important but they are not our lives. Happy that your schedule is much better in February. Hope things look up.

I have been telling myself that work will always get done and work is a part of my life. Not my life. So I am committed and give my best every single day, I want to have the time to write and read. I want to be able to do things that I like to do. And having just 24 hours a day, the only way I can do what I like to do, I will have to prioritize. :) Work in progress but yes, working on this.

Don't ever do something because it has to be done. Do it because you want to, find joy and love the process. I found the same thing to be true for myself these last few months. Made me happier than ever. Big hugs and I hope February is more peaceful for you and less stressful. Shailaja Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12639542621638996802noreply@blogger.com
