Weekly Intention: And here we are! First week of school! I can’t believe the summer is over. It feels like just yesterday it was the beginning of summer. I now have a 3rd and a 7th grader. They are both at the same school again and I am both excited and a bit anxious as I always feel during new beginnings. There is so much I don’t know. All I want this week is to be there for my kids. To support them with whatever they need. On a personal note, I’d like to be done with my big task at work so I can feel it’s off my shoulders. Things I want to get Done: Here’s the list for his week.
This month’s intention is: August: Shine from the Inside Out: Ok you did the outside in and now it’s time to reflect again. The year is half over. How are you doing? What are you keeping on the inside? Also, it’s time to let others see the real you. Don’t be afraid. Shine. This is the last week. Let’s see what more I can do here! Ways to Shine this week:
I am looking forward to: school and our new routine. This week’s challenges: school and our new routine 🙂 Top Goals:
I will focus on my core desires (bold, mindful, nourish, love) by: supporting my kids as they transition this week. This week, I will say yes to: having faith. This week, I will say no to: pessimism. I am worried that: i won’t exercise. i’ll stop eating well. kids will be unhappy with their schedule, class, school. Nathaniel will not adjust. Packet will be a disaster. I’ll get noting done. New schedule will mean I miss the 8am classes. Things will fall apart. This week, I want to remember: i’ve transitioned before and I will make it all work.
How I shone this week: This week was an adventure. It’s not like me to go into the unknown the way I did this week and I am proud of myself for that. I am proud that I showed up, all of us worked together to make all this possible and the adventure was one of a kind. I feel wonderful about it. Things I wanted to get Done:
I celebrate: our adventure! I am grateful for: this wonderful summer. my family. my boys, and my husband. so much my husband. I nourished myself by: spending a lot of family time! Reflecting on my worries: i managed to exercise and ate reasonably well while away. eclipse was amazing!!! didn’t fall off the wagon at all. nothing went wrong. I let go of: certainty. Core Desire Check-in (bold, mindful, nourish, love):
What made me laugh this week: lots of family time with Jake’s sister in law and laughter in the car, too. Amazing how much we didn’t fight considering we were in the car for 30+ hours this last weekend. What I tolerated this week: a lot of car sleeping. My mood this week was: awed. Here’s to a great week 35.
I read the Epiphany Machine in one sitting. It was a weird premise and I wasn’t sure what I was going to think about it, but I liked it. I then jumped to the very short Hunch which I also read in one sitting. It was thought provoking and as short as I’d like my nonfiction to be :). I then moved to Becoming Wise which was delightful. Like a dessert to be savored. I have two more chapters left here but I wanted to slow down so I moved to another book. I am now reading Readymade Thief which I am really enjoying so far. I am scheduling this pretty early so we’ll see if I finish anything else in the meantime. So grateful for books. Books I Read this Week 2017 is a year-long project for 2017.

We’ve been taking family photos for over 7 years now and I am so very grateful for them. They make my heart swell each time. Lately, I’ve been asking Jake to take photos of me with the kids, too. And these are quickly becoming my favorite because Jake always makes us laugh. There is so much laughter and joy in these photos and the gratitude I feel when I see them is endless. Thank you my wonderful husband!

As you read this, I am somewhere in Oregon trying to see the total eclipse. We decided to make an adventure of it, we’ll see how it plays out. My intention for the time away is to eat as well as I can and possibly to yoga when I can. And then my intention when I am back is to jump right back into things. Let’s see how well I can do. Things I want to get Done: Here’s the list for his week.

I am looking forward to: the eclipse baby! This week’s challenges: being on the go, and making it all work. Top Goals:
I will focus on my core desires (bold, mindful, nourish, love) by: being a bit more present this week. going with the flow. not overworrying. This week, I will say yes to: adventure. This week, I will say no to: undue stress. I am worried that: i won’t exercise. i’ll stop eating well. eclipse visiting will be disastrous. i will fall off the wagon with my nourishment. some unexpected thing will go terribly wrong. This week, I want to remember: everything will be okay. have faith in the universe. |
