Pictures Coming

Have you ever gotten so focused on your job or business that you forgot to take time for yourself? You know what? That's what happened to me! I am passionate about being the best leader I can be and over the last 3 years in building my business, I put several hobbies aside so I could devote time to growing a business, but I got so focused that I ended up not taking any time to do the things that bring me great joy...such as working with cloth!
Luckily for me, I have a weekly leadership mentoring call now, one on one, with a great mentor and he told me I had to get my calendar working for me! He told me I had to make sure my family, church and business time were penciled in. But also, to actually write in when I was going to sew, if that's what I wanted to do with my 'free' time. And for you other busy moms out there, you will be a better mom, wife, business owner, leader...if you take time to re-fuel..whatever that takes for you.
So today, I scheduled only 1 call with a coach. Then, I started to tackle the upstairs...which includes 5 bedrooms and my sewing room. I got one boys' room (all the boys were gone today) cleaned up and moved his bed around and mounded it with beautiful quilts...it looked so cozy when I left it. Then, I went to my sewing room!..... more tomorrow...This typing is taking up my sewing room and it's in my calendar to sew, so you'll have to wait for the rest of the story!
