I am the fire
OVERALL RATING
No two days will ever be the same for me. I live in what the great poet @rmdrk calls #beautifulchaos. I rise at ridiculous hours, somedays finishing work by 9 am, others 9pm. I pop protein waffles while I prep kids lunches, my coffee table has become the laundry basket each day slowly tackling the mountain of little boys super hero tshirts and moms sports bras, 6 out of 7 days a week my backseat looks like a gym locker, I have 985 emails that require filing, over the next 5 days I need to be in 3 places all at once, I have 90 minutes of cardio due before Sunday, I am grateful for hats- doing my hair is simply not important somedays(almost everyday), I have a request for a dozen cookies for this weekends mom and me adventure(thank gawd for bakery's), my sink has dishes 'soaking' for the last 48 hours and I would love to shave my legs before the start of next week..... I don't post this with intentions of looking like 'super women'(far from it and she parades around in knee highs and corsets- I can't wipe butts and shovel snow in that??). But rather to remind other women/moms/men/dads that life, my life, your life, is not always routine and rainbows. Days are not set up with 'me' time in mind......but to avoid feeling like I am about to let the flames burn out, I don't find the time, I make it!!! And when I do I am no longer on fire but rather I AM the FIRE that controls my chaos and therefore 'doing me' keeps the flames fueled.... #youarethefire #momswholift #strongwomen #strongisbeautiful #chasing2015 #LiveAJAckedLife
