Everyday Magic – 07

Weekly Intention:  This is a full week of work. My first in a while. And the kids’ too. They are off the following week and I will also try to take the time off so this week my intention is to close the loop on some of the things I have been dragging my feet on so we can be ready to go first thing when I get back. My intention this week is also to really take time to check in with myself, figure out my feelings (especially around work) and communicate with my manager (and myself.)

This month’s intention is: Works like Magic:  This is your month to get things done. Step it up a notch at work. Step it up at home. Take the steps you’ve been meaning to take. Book those vacations, classes, etc, make plans. I’ve made no progress on next week, spring break, Nathaniel’s birthday trip, summer vacation, or the taxes. But I’ve paid for 2019-2020 tuition and we’ve had David’s birthday so we’re doing things even if last minute. Maybe I can use a bit of my time off to move some of these forward.

One way I will show up this week:  i will be more centered and play more of a facilitator role, hold on to my opinions less firmly.

One magic I will make this week: planning our winter vacation might be magic.

This week, I will pay attention to: what i am feeling about work and how to communicate my needs better.

This week, I will be kinder to: myself. i need it.

This week, I will focus on pleasing: my manager by getting some things ready to go.

One new thing I will learn this week: let’s just focus on getting clear around my feelings this week.

I am looking forward to:  friday i guess since i will then have some time off.

This week’s challenges: tuesday is challenging with having to go to the kids’ school at night and then again wednesday morning.

Top Goals: 

  • Work: plans for march, prep for monthly, email 2.
  • Personal: keep up with journaling + art + yoga, pushups, gym.
  • Family:  david ML,  math with nathaniel. cook for Jake. family photos and celebrations. go on at least one adventure.

I will focus on my values:

  • Love:  love for my job maybe. find my path to it.
  • Learn: about what’s really getting to me.
  • Peace: peace with where i am now.
  • Service:  to my work for our todo list and then to my family for booking a hotel.
  • Gratitude: gratitude being able to pay one more year of tuition. 

This week, I want to remember:  that feeling my feelings is important. time with family is important. there will be time to read books in the future.
