This week I wrote about my thoughts on living a balanced life. I might be struggling, in a traditional sense to have balance, but I have had a great week.

Here are the highlights:

1) I completed a stressful, time-consuming, month-long work project.

2) I enjoyed having a mid-week dinner with a very special person in my life.

3) Monkey and I attended Opening Day for the Washington Nationals.

4) I was Featured Writer in the Studio30 Plus Magazine.

5) The kids and I had fun playing games and making dinners together a few nights this week.

Here are the other highlights:

1) Laundry is overflowing.

2) The fridge is bare.

3) The floors need vacuuming.

4) I am heading into the weekend with a cold.

As a result of all the work stress and my effort to keep some balance with the kids and in my own life, I have posted fewer times this week. Over the weekend I am resting up and recharging. Sunday will be another Naked Girl Wraps Up posting and then expect more from me next week.

Off to fold laundry…

For Song of the Week, enjoy the band Need to Breathe’s song, “Something Beautiful”:

Happy Friday!
