Let’s just say April was eye opening. It has been a struggle to keep up with my personal project-ME. This has been the second month now I haven’t finished a scrapbook, or a room, and the first month we haven’t had date night. Now, it’s not as bad as you might think. I’ve had some great things happen this month as well. First, I started working out again and it’s been good. Even though, I went off track for awhile I kept the weight I originally lost off and maintained my endurance. I’m still at it. I was accepted as a VIP blogger and attended an event in NYC with Vanessa Lachey. Can you say cool? So, things have been moving along, but not in the way I had planned. It’s now time to change the plans a bit.
Darn it, I still need to finish those scrapbooks and I will! Exercise-I’m still in and even more motivated since trying on clothes today. ( Now that was horrific! A mirror never lies people!) Date night will remain on the list. The month just got away from us. I think I’ve been putting my energy in the wrong places when it comes to my children. I’ll be fixing that soon. Now, the biggest change I have to make to my plan is spending more time working on my craft. ( That means my writing/blog) Things have been progressing, but I know I can do more. I have been fighting with feeling guilty over focusing on my work. I need to start thinking of it as work and do it as such. It would also help if others would think of it that way too. Alas I can’t control anyone, but myself.
This months focus is going to be living my life artfully and worrying less about what others think of me.

Hi, I really liked that post. It could have been me. Certainly my life is completly different. But its really helpful and reassuring to read someone elses notes on the daily struggles to really care perfectly for oneself.
I work with my clients on these topics and as everyone we all face these challenges. And now that I am experiencing how good it is to read about in detail, I think I will blog about it too. So thank you for the inspiration and have a wonderful sunday
