My busy blessed life as a domestic engineer
I was pretty sure my life was slowing down. I thought I would have more time to "blog". More time for my interior design passion, my cooking ambitions. Reality: I have three kids, myself, my marriage and a home to take care of and i feel that is what i should be taking care of. It's what I WANT to take care of. I love being able to stay at home and do all that it entails. No, I don't feel this way every minute of every day. And I'm not saying that I don't make time for me. It's really a balancing act. You need to do things for you. I need to take care of myself but not at the expense of my family. I don't want to take my "me" time to the point of selfishness. This is something that has been on my mind a lot lately. I see it everywhere. People losing themselves (they think they are "finding" themselves)in their blogs, their friendships, their hobbies, their passions. I'm grateful that I am aware of what I DO have and that I'm not looking for fulfilment everywhere else.

Becky, I do agree with you. It's so easy to get lost and lose sight of the most important things in life - family. I find I'm better at just doing what I feel like doing, when I feel like doing it and if I don't want to do it I don't.
