Time Out

I have yet to officially give Violet a time out, but I feel as though it is fast approaching. She's a well behaved, very responsive, and very understanding girl. She knows where she should and where she shouldn't. She knows just how to almost push mommy's buttons but she has yet to actually do it, and I love her more then words can say.

I think I need to put myself on a time out though. From FB. It's really been weighing on my mind lately. And I could say I don't know why, but it would probably be a lie. It takes away time for myself, for Violet, and for Cristian. The last couple of weeks I've been glued to my phone. Don't worry I'm still finding time to feed and bathe Violet lol, but what I mean is just that I seem to take my phone with me everywhere, and I feel like I'm checking it every couple of minutes. I'm not that popular so I really don't know what my problem is.

So I'm turning it off for a week.
I'm not going to look or post anything on FB for a week.
And I'm going to see if it makes some kind of difference for me.
I don't know why I feel so plagued by it, but I know it making me feel.... depressed and strange.


I just want to really enjoy my family, enjoy the holidays, and enjoy making crafts.
Blah. Finding a balance is so hard lately. Because is seems like what I would consider my "balance" changes every couple of hours. I'm exhausted.


I think I need to give 100% to my family.
I think I need to give 100% to myself.
I think I just need to spend time in a beautiful place.
I think I need to meditate and do yoga.
I think I need to go hiking in the mountains in the cold and wind.
I think I need to work out until I can hardly breathe.
I think I need to learn how to cook something new and amazing.
I think I need to keep trying different crafts until I find one that I just absolutely love and adore.
I think I need to take my photographs and get to decorating my home for the holidays.
I think I just need to slow down with the social media and focus on what's going on in MY life.



Anyway.
We may be taking a break from this blog also. So if you're reading, HAPPY HOLIDAYS and we'll be back in a month or two.
