We had a busy but blessed weekend and I needed it.....Gabe had football Friday night, it was a good night for the game, and the Warriors won! We had to leave a little earlier, something had come up, but it was a fun night. Then on Saturday I got to entertain and have my parents, and my brother and his wife for dinner....and the weather was lovely, fall was afoot, and I got to bust out all my fall decorating pieces, and set a pretty table....and the truth is I have missed it so much.....single people don't entertain as much as married folk......who knew;-) and where I used to host holidays on the regular, and dinner parties, and get my entertaining on often, it doesn't happen so much anymore....so I pulled out all the stops.....and it was a lovely day....then yesterday we went to church and hiked with friends....getting my weekly dose of therapy, the kind that only the woods can provide....and then the kids and I picked up our groceries, and spent some time unwinding late afternoon, before the craziness of the week takes hold......and it felt like exactly the kind of weekend I needed.....and I enjoyed every minute of it.....the end of last week found me kind of harried and stressed....Friday during the day some stuff happened that was stressful, and being able to shake it all off felt good.....and listening to what I need, and trying to meet those needs in this chapter feels good......so I am ready for the week....have some cool things on the horizon....making some moves...and working toward some things, I want to see come into existence.....continuing to promote my women's series, set to launch in October....and working toward some other goals I have for my coaching business.....finally feel as if I am getting into the swing of the new school year...it takes a minute....the first couple of weeks are bumpy for sure! I am working on doing some more writing lately, and reading in the evenings.....encouraging Mads to read with me.....she is a good reader but prefers drawing, or watching silly stuff over reading any day of the week lol;-) so I am trying to encourage her to choose it by having her watch me do that....tech reading has taken me over, leaving a stack of books by my bed.....so I am working on tackling them and finishing them! My plan this morning is to grab a good workout, and meditation, and get my head straight for the busy week ahead and tackle it piece by piece! Make it a great Monday:)
