What I Do When I Am “In A Funk”

four kids

We all have them. Off days. You know, those days where you feel unmotivated and like you are in a fog. You feel like you are going in slow motion and although you know what you need to do, you have a hard time getting there.

The recent heat wave sent me into a funk for a couple days last week and turned all of our kids upside-down. We were all off.

In this vlog I talk about what I do when I am in a funk. Truthfully, I don’t fight it. I cozy up to it, pamper myself and jump back in the next day.

I Broke Down Which Helped Me Find My Path – Why I Am Focusing More On Video

Screen Shot 2016-08-15 at 7.38.47 PM

This is a story I have been meaning to tell for months. I don’t know why I haven’t. I think sometimes we wait for the perfect time, but it just doesn’t come. I owe it to all of you to discuss why I have been moving more towards video.

I will keep writing, in fact, the quality of my writing will probably go up, now that I am writing a little less. But the truth is, for this part of my journey, and to tell our story best, video is a great fit.

Watch my latest vlog to see why and where I had a breakdown/breakthrough and what I did about it.

The Last Days Of Our Summer Vacation

In today’s vlog we continue our summer holiday week after a low-key day at home. I talk a bit about my medical condition that leaves me with less energy and I confess to who I don’t have any framed photos of.

Also, Mike and the kids set up a lemonade stand which was all his idea… I can’t take any credit. To end our fun filled vacation week we go swimming with my family and all of the cousins.

Welcome to our week…

It Finally Happened, Plus A Family Reunion

Cousins

This past week we finally said goodbye to the last pacifier in our home. This is just one step further away from the baby stage which brings a mix of emotions.

You can read more about our family’s experience with pacifiers on Baby Center: There’s a magical age to ditch the pacifier, and I know what it is.

Also, we had a week full of fun while Mike was on holidays, including a family reunion at a farm with all of the little cousins.  Follow along on the vlog…

In this week’s vlog I try to figure out the best time to fit my exercise in and make sure I take care of my adult responsibilities before I can play.

Also, the kids have a water balloon fight and it is dress up day in camp. Find out more what “work” for me involves and how Holden’s Captain America costume almost turned into a deadly weapon.
