Surviving

Well, it's January 31, and I am still surviving my change in work status to full time, from part time. I actually settled in much quicker than I thought, and any speedbumps have been miniscule. In order to actually enjoy my weekends, I make sure that I get as much done during the week as possible - groceries, 1 load of laundry per day, meal planning for the week. I have hired a cleaning lady, and biggest surprise of all -- I am getting out of bed and to my gym for the 05:45 workout. That's AM, not PM. Crazy, I know, but it is a great feeling getting it done early in the day, then feeling energized for the rest of the day. I love being able to come home and have the evening to myself, relaxing, making dinner for my kids and husband and enjoying the rest of the day. I may now even be able to start a few sewing projects again! Happy! It seems the less time I have, the more I get done. Plus, I have recruited my kids and hubby, and they have pitched in to share the load with a lot less complaining than I had anticipated. So, all in all, life is good.

As for the vogue dress I had started in my previous post, it is still in limbo, but I hope to re-cut two back pieces, rip the existing seams and sew up the new pieces.

Happy Thursday :)
