BACK INTO THE GROOVE

with 2 comments

Getting back in the groove…

Oh boy, this hard.

I foolishly imagined I get loads done over the christmas break… the fact was I did very little. And perhaps that’s what I was supposed to do (I’m just not used to it). Rest on the sofa, play games with the family, go back to the sofa, catch up with friends and just be… I actually switched off and it was good. A real gift.

Then last week, it dawned on me how much I still had to do for my new e-course A JOURNEY, so I tried working around everyone… but it’s tricky creating when you’re constantly being interuped to look at this, that and the other!

So today is the first day in 3 weeks that silence has overcome our house… when you work from home, you get used to your daily routine… There is a stillness, and I like it. My time is while the boys are at school, I try to pack as much as can into those hours. I enjoy the peace… I can think and get chunks of work done with only myself for distractions.

I’m back… with lots to share soon, but first I’m treading carefully! no big bang celebration, just building on taking one step at a time.

How are you finding re-entry? It’s tricky, huh?

    Yes! That stillness when everyone else is gone. Bliss!

    Tricky is an understatement. I work from home, too, while my little guy is in school. I love the stillness and quiet and routine. It feels heavenly. But right now, my mind is bouncing around, from one must-do to another, to another great idea. Looking forward to everything settling.

    Good luck on your re-entry!
