We’re Getting There
We are finally getting a little bit of a rhythm in the house and in my own life. It has been a long time since I have been in the right mind-set to actually get sorted. We have after all had a few things on our minds!
But we are finally getting there, the main difference has been the sorting of the house, once that was done then the other things are starting to all fall into place.
Everyone is starting to help keeping the house in tip-top shape, Baba is cleaning up after himself, Mr L participates in the cleaning! We all work together to keep everything in the same condition. It is lovely to know that it is not just me running around like a headless chicken trying to tidy up after everyone in the house.
As the house is tidy we are eating better, I have got back into cooking, and not just chucking something premade into the oven, but actually cooking things from scratch. We have had beef wellingtons, filo pastry flans, and risotto in the past week. All things that have been great hits and all of us have eaten everything on the plate. It is much better and healthier for all of us.
I am able to work and I have literally had to really start again with Scrapbookerry, I have been absent for such a long time that I have had to get my head back into that mode. Do a stock check and get cracking. I have time to make things, promote things and get talking about the business. It has been great to get back into the craft room, and great to feel like I am actually doing something again to help with the bills and everything else in the house.
We have also got back into a routine with the dog, managing to fit in his walks, and to get Baba out and about learning to use his scooter while we are out. Making walks fun for them both.
Everything is taking time to get used to the routine of things that are happening in our lives at the moment. I am taking a very sensible view with this, and tackle a new thing every couple of weeks and get used to doing that with everything else so that I know I can still keep on top of it.
It is working I am nearly there with everything that I need to do.
I have two more things to add to the list of the stuff we do, a little more exercise and writing. I still have my course to complete and I have a new writing job coming up so they both need to be included in what I am doing now. But I am positive about it all, as everything is now organised and sorted it all takes much less time to keep on top of it all. It is easy to do everything that I want to do nice and quickly and then get on with the other things that we want to do.
The making, creating, painting, drawing, writing, playing and being outside!
