Life is still flying by at warp speed. With a job requiring lots of energy and travel, a pending house move, running a home with seemingly endless tasks, being a trustee of a charity and trying to maintain my roles as a wife and mum, I can say with certainty that I am pooped.
Since going back to work, it's especially important that weekends are reserved for quality time with family and friends and resting.
Despite working part time, I'm still figuring out the best way to achieve a work/life balance that I'm happy with. I suspect that things won't feel as settled as I'd like until we've moved house so may have to reside in a space that doesn't quite feel comfortable for a while. It's also taking much longer to feel settled in my new job than I'd like. Six weeks in and I still feel incredibly anxious about going to work. Although when I'm at work I don't mind it and think that I do a pretty good job, I still yearn to be home with my baby. People keep telling me it'll get easier and so I'm hoping that will be the case in the near future.
So as I sit on the cusp of a new week, I am thankful for this weekend which has involved time with precious friends, excellent food, laughter and the occasional nap.
