Happy Friday Friends!
I didn't think I would get a post up today but I was able to sneak a few minutes to get one done.
I was kind of mad at myself because I had the best of intentions to get a Flirty Thirty post and a Fashionista Fitness post up this week. Life got in the way and I didn't have the hour+ time it takes to write each of these posts, not including links, pictures etc. It kind of overwhelmed me to be honest. Then I realized that was the reason that I blog for fun and not as my job/business. If I don't/can't write then I have no one to answer to. I can take a break or not post whenever I want. And that made feel a little bit better.
I took a minute to go through my planner and realized that I have completely overbooked myself. I am out of town, hours away, for the next three weekends. Yikes! Throw in work, my 4-5 workouts a week, friends, dating and blogging and I don't even have a second to breathe. Every single one of those things is super important to me and I don't know how to pick and choose what to slack/sacrifice on. Trying to figure it all out!
I saw this pic on Instagram last night (sorry I cannot properly cite it) and it was exactly what I needed to read at that moment. So I am sharing it with you!
I am sure I have mentioned what a control freak I am in past posts. I have the hardest time letting things "Just Be". I am trying hard to let go. Trying being the operative word in that sentence. Every day, every friendship and every date/relationship I have I am learning something new about myself. Sometimes it is big things, other days it is something tiny. But everything learned is shaping and molding me.
SOOOOO with that, I head off to celebrate my sister and soon to arrive niece this weekend in San Luis Obispo. We are throwing her a baby shower and I am excited. I cannot wait for baby girl to arrive in the next few weeks!
I hope you all have a GREAT weekend!
"Just let it be"
