Life lately has been pretty interesting. I can’t complain too much but things have been interesting. Well to start with some good news, my son made the HS Varsity soccer team and also has started in a couple games! We are so proud of him and it is still crazy that he is in high school now. He seems to be adjusting well and now has to wake up earlier to catch the bus. It has been a little rough with transitioning from the late Summer nights, sleeping in to now in full back to school mode. This leads to where I have been struggling.

Now I have to get up earlier myself to be up and ready before he gets up. I actually wanted to start being a 5am girly and it has been a bit of a struggle not hitting the snooze button so much. I just wanted to have slower mornings and not rush so much as I sometimes do. It would be nice to have time to sit, enjoy some coffee and breakfast, read, enjoy some quiet time before heading to work. I know things don’t happen overnight and I need to be patient, it will come. And maybe some of those early mornings, I can hit the gym.

I also had plans to do a September Reset and failed miserably so pushing that back. I just feel like I need to change, need things to be different and all but it’s been hard trying to change habits, stick to things and just be consistent with things. I started saying that I’m “Consistently Inconsistent” and that is not a good way to refer to myself. I know I can do better and be better and just need to keep working at things and keep showing up for myself.

Again, I can’t complain too much but I just want to get better at things so I can feel better about myself. I do have Blogtober coming up next month and I am really determined to not miss a day at all. I already have my graphic created and all the blog posts mapped out that I want to post for the month. Now I just need to start scheduling posts so I can stay on schedule. I just had to look but I think I started doing Blogtober in 2021, don’t remember if I did so on my other platform before moving over here. I can do this!
