Yes I do watch the Kardashian's! Khloe and Kourtney have always been my favorite. I have been thinking about what I wanted out of 2016 because 2015 was a blur and I was so busy at being busy I don't have a lot to say about 2015 except I'm glad its over. I started reading Khloe's book and it hit home and a lot of the same things I have been thinking about.
My kids school sports schedule in one big joke!!! I think we should just take the schedule out of it because either they don't have one and you never know what the heck you are doing or you get one only to be changed 40,000 times. Who wants to have that many scratched out things in their pretty planner. This girl right here!!! That issue has almost lead to the death of me. That is my sole issue with this year and I let my mood from that drift into all the other aspects of my life and it just wasn't good. I'm so OCD and thrive on schedule and routine so when I don't get a schedule and its fly by the seat of your pants kind of thing or another change in the schedule oh wait another change it drives my cuss word nuts. I understand things change from time to time but not all the time and times again because of another change. It got to a point to where I was mentally and physically ill over this. I have been dealing with this for 4 years now and this past year I literally had ENOUGH!
While reading her book I decided right then and there that this is the last thing in life I should let it effect my mood, my husband, my kids, and my friends. I never wanted to do anything due to my brain being mentally exhausted from it all nor did I feel like dong anything from being physically drained from the chaos. I have a God who loves us wholeheartedly and never forsakes us that shows more grace than I ever deserve, a husband who does his best providing for us, healthy kids who I would be bored without, great friends who I have been put on the backburner.
2016 Goals:
Grow in my Faith
I've put it on hold for business when I should of made it my first priority
Khloe's advice: Don't sweat the small stuff.
we spend a lot of time wallowing and or complaining about what's wrong with life...
It's not fair we complain, not realizing that, perhaps, it was never intended to be
Be present: live in the moment!!
The dishes and laundry can wait
This hits home with me so much and its my biggest struggle in life.
I want to house to be perfect with everything its in perfectly organized spot with all my candles filling the rooms with wonderful fragrance in the air, my planner planned out for the week, month, or year anything I know in advance is color coded as well as meal planning. If I am doing something I am all in and I want it perfect. One of the hardest things for me is letting the kids make a mess I want to shout and cry buy I realize that's what being perfectly imperfect looks like. Trying to strive to make everything perfect is never ending and in turn has stolen my joy for loving life it feels more like a chore that never ends.
There you go those are my New Years resolutions. What are your?
