Really where does it go? I mean I always find myself looking for the 25th hour to finish up one last chore! Amid Mili's classes, homework, play dates, household chores, my fitness routine and blog - I usually find myself running (not the good kinda running y'all where you tone the legs - but running where I forgot the library card in my other wallet, or miss the 4:12 subway because the metro card was out of money!) The Monday starts with early morning school bus and Friday ends with the weekend looking expectantly at me for the things we have planned pushed back for Saturday!
And while I am barely finishing up things-to-do, there are Pinterest boards reminding me how other women have a beautiful clean house, perfect menus for entertaining and amazing craft projects they'd be doing with their kids while I refill my metro card! I guess I need to work on my time management (I see another post coming about that!) Or may be I just need to accept the fact that sometimes we need to just let things go a little. So my mantra for this weekend is - a happy house is a messy house, perfect menu is what is sticking on your refrigerator door and the craft activity this Sunday is just snuggling-with-hubs&kiddo-till-the-sun-comes-up -really-high!! As we prepare of another busy weekend at our home, I made up a resolution of letting some things go and just not worry about achieving perfection! As they say - keep calm and enjoy the weekend:-)

Shorts - Topshop

The shorts and shirt combo is so Audrey Hepburn and I love it. Ah, the busy life of a stylish New Yorker ;) Don't push yourself too hard Jyoti! Rest up during the weekend and stay sane! Don't worry about the imperfections in your life; half the time, it's those small things that makes life so kickass! x
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, Jyoti, we must be living in parallel worlds right now! This is exactly how I feel today! I just decided the house can go for the weekend. I'm taking the girls to the library, out to shop for new flowers for the garden and then take the dogs for a walk. No need for chores today! The mess will still be there Monday. :)
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy your weekend!

So true! So often it feels like we're running behind on everything - work, household chores, etc, etc. The list runs forever. Your mantra is absolutely right - keep calm and enjoy the weekend. Just let go! :)

i feel the same way...and it's been worse lately!
ReplyDeleteI love Pinterest but I think all women feel a little less when they see what other wonderful ladies are doing in their free-time. Don't let it get you down, you set an example that many women aspire to. Thanks again for all the great posts.
