Learning to find balance

SO this blog is all about me finding balance in this crazy world. We are all busy and never have time. I am striving to find time for what I know is important. We all work in some way, I happen to be a working mom who often find myself stressed out about things that really don't matter in the grand scheme of things.

As I face this giant in my life (finding the balance), I want to still be all things for all people. I never want to be the person that says no, I am too busy. So because of that I find life is spinning, some days life a ball someone else is juggling, I am continuing to always trying to go above and beyond.

Making a steps toward my goal, I found myself in a place that I often find myself. A wonderful friend who could use a meal and I want to help. Now normally I would have spent a ton of money and time on other families meals and taking my taking my family to McDs (I have spent all of my enegry trying to look good to someone else and then I put my family second). I would then be beating myself up about not having balance or bounderies.

My baby step this time around was to look at our monthly menu plan and figure out what would work to double and bring my friend excactly what we were eating. It was so simple, almost a duh moment?!, yet for me it was a huge humbling step. This wonderful friend would know that I am not super mom, I feed my family chicken strips. Hope this means I am learning to find balance and I can still be super mom...LOL!
