The Pressure Is Off!

This weekend was far busier than I wanted it to be. I had this idea that I was going to get lots of work done on wedding projects (I'm working on flower girl stuff at the moment), and maybe even some writing (since I got all that wonderful advice from everyone last Friday). Sadly, that didn't really happen. I did get some wedding work done, but not as much as I would have liked. And I didn't get any writing done.

I DID have an epiphany this weekend, though. I realized that I'm far too hard on myself, and that last week was evidence that too much pressure turns me into a whining sack of emotion. I'm not doing that anymore. Starting this week, I'm taking things one day at a time, and not pushing myself if I feel like I need to take a break. Much as I'd like to be, I'm not Superwoman, and I can't do everything I want to do at once. There simply aren't enough hours in the day.

Here's to a better week, and accomplishing things one tiny step at a time! What about you guys? Any revelations this weekend?

  3. No revelations per se. I do have to take my brother to his colonoscopy appointment.

  4. So you realized you're not Superwoman ay? Well, it's a good thing you learned that while you're still young. Slowing things down leads to perfection. ;)

  5. Yay for great decision-making epiphanies! I realized this weekend that I haven't been reading enough books lately, so I'm back on my three-a-week schedule.
