The energy the last couple of weeks has not been my favorite.....I feel like as I have become more in tune with stuff, and have learned more about it all, I can really feel the changes that come out there in the atmosphere.....and it can get intense.....this week was intense energy...and I could see it play out in lots of lives around me.....but also I could feel some of it myself......so....I am hoping as this next week arrives things ease some....however the energy that was out there was very beneficial for getting stuff DONE!......I had a to do list a mile long, and I broke it down in each day, and got it nearly done! Which feels amazing.....this week will be another busy one of getting all of the stuff done......physicals for the kids and I, cardiologist for Gabe, and back to work for two in -service days.....I also have a business professional development meeting......so lots of moving parts......and then the following Monday is the first day of school.......I did a grocery order yesterday in line with my whole food goals and my food prep goals again.....and for the kids and I to sorta right our ship as the school year comes....and I think that for me the "newness" of a school year never gets old.....I love to have a clean slate.....a new place to begin again.....a do over if you will.......and that is what each year brings for me......I have some new plans for my little family, and for my students this year.....some new ideas and things to do! But the pressure to complete my to do list.....before work takes hold has been a force.....I have felt it so deeply.....and did my best to do that.....I met with my kitchen guy to attempt to finalize our plan......and the hope is to have it complete by Christmas........the timeline for that has not been what I expected....but I am trusting the cosmic and divine timing of it all.....knowing that it will shake out as it should.....I think that is the freedom I have found.....knowing that the energy that comes supports different parts of our lives....and if the energy out there is playful and light, our to do lists are likely going to be harder to complete.....not impossible....but not easy....so as the energy comes I have to feel what comes and work with it the best I can.....recognizing what it is calling me to do, or feel, or experience......Life has taken on a different quality for me since Covid......and maybe there is no way to return to the before for any of us fully......I think we can all agree that the world has changed some or life feels a little different, living feels a little different......and what is the saying? The only constant in life is change......well yeah I would have to agree......I have certainly had my fair share and continue to. And the old Jenn HATED change.....;-) she would hunker down in routine and stability and want to stay there......and while there are parts of me that love those constants, routines, and disciplines, and the coziness they bring I am now a person that embraces change much more often.....is open to it......willing to explore it all and see what I see.......not feeling afraid or having my boat rattled so much as feeling like I am open to what is next! I am hanging with my kids this weekend and soaking in the last minutes of summer loving on them! Happy Saturday! Make it a good one:)
