Energy to be a MOM and Me all at the same time

Sometimes I feel overwhelmed being a mom. Today My daughter cried when she got to school. She just realized she wasn't signed up for art and only taking Violin. I don't want her to hate her violin so this afternoon I went and signed her up for Art classes. She just started the violin after the holidays and now to have her hate it. That is so not a good idea. Man But giving her two things was more than I had planned.
Today I feel like I have no energy. I am not sleeping at well. My husband says I'm snoring but I wake up feeling tired and then feel tired all day. I have no idea what is wrong. Someone suggested I excercise. But I need to have ENGERY to do that and it will give me more ENGERY. See that magical word comes up a lot.
This evening I have to drive my other daughter to her activities. Man I feel like a driver and not myself. This morning, I did spoil myself and went out for Breakfast with my girlfriends. It was soo nice. That is when I felt I was me and not someone else. I got to talk as freely as I wanted.
I did find I really need to find my excercise goal! I need to find the engery to do it.
I hope that with energy feeling the need to go better.

Engergy Art

I have been reading some blogs about word art and how people use it and post it and have it in their living rooms. I think I might like one of these! So I thought why not make one! I'm a digital Scrapbooker So this should come easy to me. I would think. LOL There are lots of great art out there. some are painted some are sketched some are letters put together from magazines! I think this is a great way to be inspired to see your word everyday!
 Yesterday was such a tiring day. I think it was because it was so dark and gloomy outside and we didn't turn on our lights until 3pm but it was miserable.  So I did some scrapbooking. Trying to get some pages done. It felt good. I got one done and a second one started.

I still need to incorporate excerise into my daily life. I havne't figured out how to do this yet. I just have to get out there. easier said then done. Especially when i'm one of these people who really need 9-10 hours of sleep. Getting up early or staying up late to get it done doesn't work for me.

Having Energy... Being Energy... Rubbing Energy

I believe if you are with someone for anytime at all you take some of their aura and they take some of yours. That is how we affect one another. I try to spend my time with someone I know who has the most energy I know of all people. She is single, has 9 international students and babysits 5 others and always has the time to say hello and have a conversation with anyone who walks by. 

I want to have some of what she has. 

I asked her once how she does it. She told me she is up at 5AM every morning. Reads the bible for an hour, excersices for one hour then showers. Then it's time to wake the students and make breakfast for everyone. Including some of the smaller children who come before school starts. 

Heck some mornings I can't drag myself out of bed. I want to grow up to be more like her. 

I started to shower every morning before breakfast. That seems to help. Maybe in a week I can start to wake a bit earlier and meditate before that shower. I bet that would help me to have energy.

Today I started to do the final planning of my DD 9th Birthday. Should be intersting. It's a mystery party. I just need to now start on deciding what the cake will look like. 

Jan 1 2014.  Full of lots of promise and lots of ideas. Where will this year lead me? Where will I go. 

I have lots of ideas, as most people do on this day. I hope too accomplish most. 

I sell Avon and want to achieve leadership by March!! 

I also want to do daily walks

I want to make Pilates a priority and fit it in 3 X weekly!!\

With all this I have a word to come up with to inspire me all year long!! A Single Word!! That can be hard and intimidating. I have found my word

ENERGY!!!!

I think this will fit perfectly into my plan. I want to do everything energetically. Otherwise why bother with it. I want to have energy to be all I can be or just take a rest to re-energize!! What else can I do. 

I thing having the energy by eating healthy and drinking healthy is the way to go. So this is my Word this year. We will see where this word leads me and I hope others will find it interesting this path I will take. !!
