Kids. Laundry. A bad haircut. Defining my abdominals. My glass of wine.
I really need to work on a new mind set. Everything is a work in progress. The kids are always growing and changing. The laundry is always growing. My abs are a far cry from where they were a year ago, but I surely have room to improve. If I stop trying to finish things and keep working on viewing things as a progression, a constant evolution then I might find more satisfaction in my day. I desperately want to feel satisfied with my day, with my job. Some days it is easier than others. Some says everything sucks, and I feel like a failure. I feel like I accomplish nothing some days. Not one single task is completed. But... If I look at it in a different light I can see so much accomplishment. I might not have fed the kids a gourmet meal, but they were fed. The laundry might still be in the baskets waiting to be folded, but it is clean. I might not have taught the children origami or made paper machie' dragons with them, but we did play. Homework was done, books were read, songs were sung. And tomorrow when I get up to start it all over again I am sure my level of frustration will rise and fall throughout the day and my ears will grow weary with constant questions and needs. But I'll get through the day and look back and see that there was good in my day.
As for the glass of wine, I can certainly finish that.
