Christmas was good this year, although not as exciting or festive as normal. It had, none the less, some interesting surprises. My vacation started on Christmas Eve. We went and visited family and didn’t get home until around midnight. A very long day. Matthew and I were both very tired, but Vincent was well behaved in the car. Meaning he slept most of the way, as did my sister.
Christmas vacation as a whole, has been restful; although I can hardly believe that it is almost over. I have been trying to use this time to renew myself and find a base for the next year. This past year, I have realized, I have spent focused on others to my detriment. This next year, I am going to focus on taking care of myself. I need to restablize, find focus, and live deliberately. This is something I probably should have done last year, but somehow never found the time. I hope that I will be able to keep this up throughout the year, Lord willing.
Among the changes being made, Matthew and I have started to attend one of the local Baptist churches. We haven’t been very good about regular attendance, but we’ll get there. Trying to take it slowly. Baby steps seem to be key, even though I’ve tried but always want to go full force. Hopefully this time I’ll get it.
We’ve decided to try for another baby, Matthew and I, and I’m curious to see how long it takes without trying persay. We’re just trying to let it happen when it does. I’ve also been thinking more strongly about continuing my education, but probably won’t until after we’ve had the new baby.
I’ve recently taken up Yoga. It looks like it will be fun as long as I can keep it up. That’s all for now…
