Oh gosh that never ending quest for balance, it’s just so elusive isn’t it? I too have taken on more commitments with church recently (and so has my husband) and it’s left me feeling rather frazzled. I took a step back and worked out what should stay and what should go and what changes we needed to make and I feel better for it. Sometimes I get so caught up in the ‘doing’ that I forget that we’re supposed to ‘be’, if you know what I mean? xx

Ah I dream of a garden room!! We’ve talked about getting one built for around three years, but alas it’s turned into nothing. I can’t wait to take me girls to NY one day. My mum took me a month after I finished my GCSE and it was such a special trip. You’re going to have the most amazing memories and you all deserve it!!

A friend of mine once said “balance is a unicorn” – it simply doesn’t exist. I think we all have our own unique versions of balance and sometimes we’re better at achieving it than others. I try and remember that the busy periods are just temporary and that they will naturally balance out with slower times if I stay mindful. I’m so jealous of your trip to New York – I’ve been wanting to go for the longest time. Will look for ward to reading all about it next summer.

In reply to Seaside Sparkles. Interesting how many people relate to my thoughts on balance. 2023 will come round soon enough no doubt!

In reply to Sarah MumofThree World. HA ha I knew you would be cross about the tree! Oh to panto rehearsals, it's such a love/hate relationship sometimes isn't it?

Your garden room looks amazing! It must be so nice to escape too – if it isn’t hosting a sleepover! I know what you mean about balance, it feels like this time of year is so busy we are forced to do so much when really all I want to do is slow down. There is nothing wrong with taking a little bit of time out now and again to recharge xx
