We're almost a month in to 2015 and so far im loving it. We have so many plans for this year and so far all our dreams are coming true.
Ive gone back to work, casually. This is something i started thinking about late last year, not for the money but for me. To feel like I'm not just a mother and a wife, to have some timeout from cleaning my house, making sandwiches and wiping butts. Now i get to clean a store and put clothes away hah but i get to do it in aircon while talking with adults and listening to music. Its actually been so good for my soul. I was telling a friend i hadnt spoken with in a while that id returned to work, i couldnt wipe the smile off my face and saying how good it was. I feel refreshed, like im moving forward and its making me happy.
James and i also joined the gym, this is another for me (or us) thing, which might seem selfish but after 4 years of being a stay at home mum and spending day in day out parenting little people, i think i deserve to be a little bit selfish. Ive always been a pretty lazy person but i wanted to change that, ive always tried but fallen back to my lazy ways, this time is different, i get excited about going, im excited to push myself and wake up woth sore muscles, i feel like ive accomplished something. The kids love the creche, theres so many toys and other kids to play with that now they look forward to that time they get there. All i need to do now is change my diet up a bit and ill be feeling 100%.
Seb starts kindergarten this week, im so excited for him but after having him around for the last month since he left day care i feel like im going to loose my helper. It will be nice to have some one on one time with Dais again though, i feel like she'll be the one to miss Seb the most. Im looking forward to watching him grow and learn and make some great friends. This is the last year before he starts prep which scares the life out of me, he'll be 4 in a few weeks and while i think im prepared for him to grow up, im definitely kidding myself.
2015, I love you.
