I am having one of those weeks where everything seems to be falling into place, just right. My push to prioritize is paying off ten-fold. I resigned from one of my freelance gigs at a health magazine. The relief! The joy! The sheer happiness of not having to track down excessively busy health care workers who didn’t want to be interviewed anyway!
With this change in income, I took a closer look at my finances and have been budgeting. I’ve also been eating much healthier, sleeping better and seeing gains in my tri training. I can’t help but think these things are all related. There is such gratification to be found in changing your behavior, seeing the new habits stick and viola! Results! Speaking of Goldilocks, I’ve switched my morning bagel habit to low-sugar oatmeal and it is such a pleasant change. The porridge is just right.
With my extra time and happy attitude, I sat down yesterday for an hour of Singer therapy. I used a beautiful African batik print sent from Switzerland by the lovely Jessica to create this Frenchy Bag. I am using canvas a good bit these days in my sewing. I like the simplicity and sturdiness — especially when paired with such a busy print.
I hope your week has also been just right.
