As we return from a delightful, fun filled week at the beach, we are refreshed, renewed and ready to ease back into a more organized day to day life. Not quite ready for early wake ups, but definitely looking forward to new schedules. Healthier meal plans, exercise, family prayer time, less screen time and scheduled chores are on the horizon. We just need to work ourselves out of vacation mode and back into the mindset of daily plans. There is a certain level of comfort that comes from a schedule. Knowing what comes next eases stress on some level. Especially for kids, but also for adults. I crave routine right now.
I'm also wishing I could fast forward into the future a bit. I'm wishing I was further along in this minimalist journey. I know it's a process but sometimes I feel like I'm treading water. As a new school year approaches, my fear of falling behind is here before I even get started. So I will continue along, one step at a time and have faith that it will be alright in the end. As long as I keep in touch with Him and seek to do His will.
As my favorite animated character says....
"Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..."
