Wow, I’ve blogged every day for the past one hundred days! I don’t think I’ve ever done that before!
<a href=”http://www.ilaxstudio.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/160406100days.jpg” rel=”attachment wp-att-36160″><img class=”alignnone size-full wp-image-36160″ src=”http://www.ilaxstudio.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/160406100days.jpg” alt=”160406100days” width=”499″ height=”248″ /></a>
I wasn’t initially planning a blogging streak, but I’ve stuck with it because it gives me some semblance of control while my life is feeling a bit chaotic. I know – two moves for someone who works from home a lot and doesn’t have kids? Doesn’t seem too chaotic.
But what makes me feel anxious (and chaotic) is not having control of my schedule, and I’ve (we’ve) had A LOT of that over the past few months. It’s funny – what are our instincts when something major is changing? KEEP AS MANY THINGS THE SAME AS POSSIBLE! Ha! Flexible, I am often not. But I <em>am</em> working on it.
New longer commute? No problem. Finding new stores and figuring them out? Okay, I can do this.
But I stupidly tried to keep other things the exact same after our moves – how much I work out, how much free time I have, how much we cook, how many movies we can watch a week, and so on. Some big things, some little things. All important things.
And my point is, things are up in the air as construction is on going at our house, and even though it’s ours, we’re still in a bit of a limbo. We’re not settled.
So it’s nice, with all that, for me to have this space as my constant. And to share things with you each day and interact with people, for fun. Thanks for reading!
(And me mentioning this means the streak will probably end soon – ha ha – that seems to be how things go!)
