What could you do differently?
So many things. There is time management, meal planning and caring for myself. Let’s explore each of them.
Caring for myself
Right now that looks like waking up before my son and having a coffee and reading my Bible to start my day. But other then that I have zero time to myself. Living in a small space is the main reason for lack of space. The other is it’s winter and I’m not into sitting outside in freezing temps. I rarely go to town and when I do I usually have my son along with me. I would love to take a weekend away and have sometime where I can read a good book, soak in a nice bath and have someone else cook for me.
Meal planning
Friends this part is so hard to keep up with. I love to cook and I love do cook different things. But that is where meal planning is hard. Growing up we ate the same meals on a 2 week rotation. I honestly don’t like that. But friends my mama knew her budget and had to make meals that fit it. So in 2024 I have a goal to figure out the top 14 meals my famioy loves the most and have them on a steady rotation. I even plan on getting my son more involved with the meal preparation.
Lastly there’s Time Management
I don’t think there is anyone who can confidently say that they have their time all set up. I have a rough idea of how I want my day to go. The order in which things happen. But nothing is written in stone. Our daily life changes from day to day and season to season. What works for one period of time doesn’t for the next. As each season comes I start with a plan but it quickly gets changed and I find myself aimlessly scrolling through IG or pinterest. I will be setting time blocks up so we can get things done. We are also turning the generator on after chores and turning it off way earlier then we have. Because who needs the internet running all through the night?
So friends there you have it. A small glimpse into what I feel I could change. I know I have some practical ideas for implementing some of the changes. I’m just not too sure how I will implement time away for myself to recharge.
