Behind. Again.

[fleurdelysa]

How did I get so incredibly behind on reading LJ? Not to mention posting and everything else. This keeps happening lately whenever there is a hiccup in my schedule. I've been thrown legit curve-balls the last couple of months, but I think it is time to down-size my life again. Simplify. But what goes? Not the travel. Not the sewing and craft

Thank you! Natural lighting is the best. :)

The LJ community I'm a part of here helps keep me grounded and realistic. I am finding that if I don't have time for LJ, then I'm probably not making enough time for my mental health. It's a good warning sign! I'm trying to figure out how to heed it.

You look SO lovely!! And I understand what you're feeling. I've been looking at how to simplify and downsize more: it's difficult to do but I like the resulting feeling of more freedom and/or more capacity to enjoy life.

Oh thank you so much! I was having such a good time, I feel like it really shows on my face here. :)

Yes, for me the feeling of rushing and being overwhelmed comes over me easier these days. My health is quite good compared to a couple of years ago, but I need to be vigilant about not over-filling my life because I feel better! It's very hard to decide where to make cuts. I keep thinking that if I can just get caught up with the current back-log it will all be fine. Problem is... well, you know... there is a chronic backlog!! So hang in there and breathe deep in that space you make for yourself to be in the moment.
