The one where she takes a break

Gepubliceerd op 20 februari 2024 om 20:17

Hello,

 

It's been a while and I am so sorry for that. I know I normally say that I am back to stay and really intend to write more often.... but the message today will be a bit different. I have been wanting to write and still feel the need to do so, but other things in our lives right now need more attention. I tried to set a goal for myself to write every 2 weeks but even that goal seems to be impossible to maintain. The last week I've been pushing myself to write, angry because I missed yet another deadline and I thought to myself "maybe the blog needs to be put on the backburner for a few months". 

I really can't imagine stopping with Whathaveigottoshare, It's done so much for me. It has been my outlet, my guidebook when reading back and in some ways like a report card. Seeing how I made changes and implemented them in our lives for good. If it has even done a fraction of that to somebody else I have accomplished what I wanted to. I really hope and wish that it did make a difference for somebody out there.

 

So this is going to be my last post for a while and I do not know when i'll be back to writing. What I DO know is that I will pick things up again when I feel like the time is right. 

And some of you might wonder what could be so overwhelming or comprehensive in the life of a housewife/mom that there isn't even time to write every 2 weeks.......  Honestly there is nothing like that.

 

Things have actually been going really great. I love my job at the library and it seems like we are getting more into a rhythm with combining those schedules. I love being able to put on a podcast while cleaning and just completely focusing on the job at hand. It brings me so much joy to be able to drive back home to Niels and Kevin and hear about the adventures they have been on. I don't know, it's hard to put a word to but it feels like there is more balance in everything now.  

 

Kevin is growing like a weed and with that growth come some challenges in his interaction with other kids. Those challenges are especially hard for me to be witness of and I am getting some help navigating this without putting my trauma or burden onto my kid. Same mantra goes: one step at a time with the right intention will get me there.

 

Hopefully when I pick up writing again I will be able to update you guys on how we took that hurdle because I am sure this is just another challenge that we have to go through. And really, in the grand scheme of things we've already been through, this is peanuts. 

 

Well I guess that is it for now. Not sure when you'll hear from me again, but please stick around and or reach out. I appreciate you reading being here and reading along.

 

Until next time!
