I'm back! (And an explanation of my absence)

Hi all of you faithful followers (in other words, "Hi Christina!")

I have officially had an epic fail of a perfect month. And you know what? I don't regret it one bit. After missing a few days of my perfect month of journaling I decided that I needed a break from blogging. I guess I had an unofficial perfect month (or two) of survival during my blog absence. I'm proud to say that I survived perfectly, though I definitely did not journal perfectly.

In the last couple of months I began my internship at Lutheran Social Services. I work out of the Janesville office doing outpatient substance abuse and mental health counseling. I'm loving it. But adding about 18 hours a week to my already busy schedule (with school, family, and church responsibilities) just about did me in. Luckily things are back on track enough that I think I can resume this blog. Of course, I am going to start with a month that will be relatively easy to achieve. My plan is that this month's goal is going to make balancing my responsibilities easier rather than adding yet another item to my "to-do" list. 






Also, we had family portraits taken this week, so I can't resist posting a few of my favorites.

I am glad that you didn't journal last month, didn't feel bad about it, and were okay with sharing that! That is reassuring for less-consistent-goal-followers like me.

I also think it also reflects self-care and good priorities on your part. Just because you've made a goal for the month doesn't mean that it is your #1 goal, and I am glad that you put your family, school/internship, and sanity ahead.
