Weekly Reflection – 33

One: I chose to run every day for one mile. I hated every one of those runs but I did it anyway.
Two: I chose to do math with my kids every day.
Three: I chose to work on our math and spent time with each kid doing algebra.

I read/learned: I finished The Fundamentals of Caregiving and started Truth and Beauty(audio) and Present over Perfect(reading.) Two nonfictions is pretty rare for me. I also finally watched all the videos in Alisa’s Watercolor Blooms class.
I celebrate: I celebrate our last weekend before the boys go back to school.
I am grateful for: getting a lot done this week. being back home. almost feeling like we have a routine but still getting to sleep in because school hasn’t started.
I focused on my health by:

I’ve been doing a 1mile run, my 10K steps and my 7minute exercise daily.
Kids and I are eating a mostly veggie and fruit diet lately. Though I have had some chocolate of course!

I made art: I worked on my One Little Word for August and made myself a photo board. I’ll call those art for now.
I let go of: I let go of being on top of things. I will take things as they come and do the best I can each day and then I will call it done.
Core Desire Check-in:

Kind: I’ve been kind to Jake this week. Spending time to help him without being too difficult about it.
Strong: I’ve been working out daily, I’m proud of myself for trying.
True: I love all the photos I hung by my desk. They remind me what matters most to me.
Generous: I’ve been generous with work, doing what needs to be done.
Brave: I’ve been brave with the way I’ve made my kids jump into eating actual food and not taking no for an answer. Much progress has been made in the last 10 days.

Here’s to another good week! 🙂
