I want to…

• Get up and stretch
• Walk to clear my mind and refresh/reset
• Take an hour and read a business book/work on my own professional development
• Exercise for 45 minutes- elliptical, yoga, Zumba, weights… anything!
• Journal daily as a way to express and explore my feelings and come to terms with the situations happening around me
• Shower and dress in nice clothes and make myself look presentable on a daily basis
• Meditate

Instead…

• I sleep in… with both boys nestled in my arms
• Get dressed in jeans or yoga pants and a stretched out t-shirt
• Pour cheerios or yogurt for the boys
• Head into my office and work
• Sometimes stop for lunch… consisting of a frozen burrito, microwaved or last night’s dinner leftovers
• Work until the nanny leaves
• Take the boys outside so they can run around
• Make dinner
• Eat dinner
• Clean up after dinner
• Watch tv with Eddie and the boys
• Give the boys a bath
• Fall asleep with the boys snuggled beside me
