Yep, quiet time is exactly what I need right now. Last week was intensely busy. We started off with two days of pampering and R&R with a few bloggers from the south at Fringe Salon. Then I spent Wednesday at home so that I could write, but I also made sure to sneak in my last batch of school errands. On Thursday, I had the ever-so-enriching opportunity to sit down with a WAHM friend and start-up blogger for a quick chat. I love that I am now able to give advice and help people who want to start their own blogs or begin a work at home career.I fell that these little meetings allow me to give back for all the help that I received three years ago when I was the newbie.
Friday was the most relaxing day of last week, with only a few grocery errands and some writing on my list. I actually got to grab a yummy lunch at S&R with my mom. Saturday started mighty early with day one of the June-July Futbol Funatics camp at Cuenca. Then I went straight to Fringe afterwards for our last blogger event day. Sunday was an early football day as well, and then afterwards, the boys and I spent time with our relatives on the Cuyugan side. It was certainly a long, but super rewarding week.
Today was mostly spent at home. I decided I would take it easy because I feel a cold coming on. True enough, I fell asleep on my mom’s couch, my favorite spot in her room. Guess my body really was asking me to slow down. Taking even one day to slow down for some quiet time can really make a huge difference in the ever so eventful life of a mom or dad. Do you guys agree? Now that I’ve taken my day off, I know that I’m ready to face the week. Of course, there’s gonna be writing involved. Lots of it, if I hope to really make a dent in my crazy backlog. Here’s what you can look forward to reading about on the blog in the next few days.
- My new baon plan for the next two weeks
- Our lunch experience at Wooden Spoon Restaurant
- The amazing sweet treats of Pink Wasabi
- My extremely overdue #BetterMe post. For real this time.
What do you guys do to get even a few minutes of quiet time in the middle of a busy day, week or month?
My quiet time is twice a week, and it’s very helpful when it comes in calming and relaxing. Great post!
I just had that buffalo wings last Saturday and I like the taste. One of my favorite Pizza is S&R.
Quiet times are really important. It enables growth to catch up on us 🙂
Well, I’m looking forward to my quiet time, this week and the next would be the busiest! I usually eat sweets like kitkat, cakes etc, basta anything sweet sa quiet time ko..:) But before that, I think I have to treat my family at S&R first, kasi we miss na the pizzaaaaaaa there!! 🙂 Looking forward to your baon plan next week! 🙂
Mmmm S&R pizza. I want!
Yes i do get those times when am not thinkin am just sat down and keep silence.
I’ve heard lots of great stories about Wooden Spoon but we have not tried to dine in there yet. Pink Wasabi food looks really good. Huhu I’m envious! 😛 To get away from busyness and stress, I just sleep.
Well, don’t forget to take a rest every now and then, ’cause that’s the best way to live a happy life, together with your loved ones.
