Productivity!

Yesterday was a hugely productive day and it felt SO good......it was MUCH needed.....the energy last week was heavy, and slower feeling to me and I had read it would switch some, and I definitely felt the shift, so I could get my to do list done! I woke up relatively early and worked out. Mads stayed with me......we had a mother daughter powerhouse day:) it was much needed for both of us, and I enjoyed her company.......The contractor came and we had a chance to talk about some much needed stuff, I love how that stuff like that works out! We went over the last details, and how it was going to play out.....then my dad came up with his leaf blower and he and I blew all the leaves in the yard......there were SO many......and I was grateful to have him with me to do it......it took us a few hours......and then he helped me take the rest of my deck stuff down.....it was all so appreciated.........and then I went with Mads to Home Depot, and Lowes to check a few things out we needed to, and we found the most amazing 5 ft Santa for a great price.....so we brought him home;-) and then we went to Shop Rite for some groceries.....and hit the car wash......then I went to vote......grabbed Gabe from the late bus.....and then came home and fed the kids, and worked on report cards.....and was asleep early.....needed it lol:) I was talking to somebody about how I prefer having that kind of energy buzzing through me sometimes.....part of my make up is the element of fire, and having the energy to be all fiery and wildly productive helps me so much:) That slower energy that was about was tough for me......I have been working though on tempering my need for productivity.....and doing doing doing......that can be a trap too.....I am finding balance finally.....allowing myself the rest and recovery I need or the slower times....I think maybe I am so aware of it, and wanting to feel able to do it ALL.....because well I have to. So I need the energy to keep up with all of the demands coming my way, so it feels better when I can oblige:) Today is another busy one, I have an early meeting and busy day ahead! Happy Wednesday:)
