Monday Motivation

by - October 11, 2021


Happy Monday, friends. I feel like I need this reminder today. Not for any particular reason, if I'm being honest. I've just been feeling a little blah the last few days.

I feel like I'm running behind on something. I'm not. Not really. The holiday issues of my magazine always make me feel hectic. These are the months where deadlines really do matter, so there's no wiggle room. And because of the nature of the holiday season paired with all the things going on because of Covid, there's no "working ahead" on these ones like I can do with nearly all of my others. In fact, I'll be working on January at the same time as November and February at the same time as December.

I also feel a little out of sorts because I haven't nailed down my schedule for this week. Today is a holiday, so that limits me a little bit on my communications with potential clients, but then our school system has an extended weekend for fall break so that will also impact me. I'll get it all done, but right this second I'm feeling a little overwhelmed about everything.

If I'm being honest, I feel like I didn't quite fully recover from that week where Alexis was at home unexpectedly. So many things fell to the wayside that week, and I haven't had the energy to get it all straightened back out. I did have a rare weekend to myself, but I didn't sleep well so it all kind of cancels out.

Wow, this post feels very doom and gloomy. I promise everything is okay. It's just been a rough couple of weeks, and I've always vowed to be honest about stuff like that with you guys.

In other news...actually, I don't have any other news. So I'm going to end this before we spiral down the rabbit hole I unintentionally jumped down.

I hope you all have a great week!
