Now the the 5K has past, and fall is settling in, I think its time to get back to basics, to get on a schedule, and to make some plans. Summer is my favorite season because it’s carefree, fun, happy, sunshiny. Autumn is my favorite season because it’s about back to it, organization, cooling it down, enjoying every precious sunshiny moment.<\/p>\n
What am I going to be up to this fall?<\/p>\n
1. Getting on the blog. Big plans for GMS and this blog, but I think I need a noncomputer day to map out everything I think and feel and just create<\/em>. I am recommitting myself to keeping both blogs accurate, not letting one suffer for the other.<\/p>\n 2. Putting me first. This fall, I am going to try to: a) get up early enough to eat breakfast at home; b) get back to exercising my whole body, keeping up running and yoga, too; c) learn how to meditate, and spend at least 10 minutes a day doing so.<\/p>\n 3. Moving on up. I want to be looking for two bedroom apartments so we can find somewhere to live that fits our growing lifestyle, and allows Jeff and I to work from home without sacrificing comfort.<\/p>\n 4. Paring down, doubling down. Moving and putting me first mean really looking at my “busy” to see what it’s comprised of. Fun activities that uplift me, or commitments that stress me out? Everything is up for evaluation (soccer coaching already passed the test, as did book club.)<\/p>\n 5. Relaxing. All of this is to say, relax<\/strong>. Figuring out how to do nothing, and be OK with that. Enjoying small moments, the sun, the wind, the sounds around me, my friends’ laughter, smiles.<\/p>\n Excuse me, now, whilst I head to finish a National Geographic.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Now the the 5K has past, and fall is settling in, I think its time to get back to basics, to get on a schedule, and to make some plans.
