Breathing Room / Putting Yourself First / Everything Can Shove It
I want to start by apologizing for dropping off the face of the earth! I was so proud of myself for following through with the commitment I made to not just be wedding-focused the week before the wedding, and for posting that I’d be slower with my blog entries. It was such a big step for me, who always thinks I have to be Superwoman and do it all. So I put up the post, let myself off the hook, and….disappeared. It was halfway through my honeymoon that I realized I left y’all hanging! Since my last post, I got married and went on a 2-week honeymoon to Hawaii and San Francisco. It was the most amazing time, and I can not wait to start my new life standing next to the best man I have ever known.
I could take this time to beat myself up for not posting in three weeks, or I could tell myself, “It’s OK. You needed the space and the time, and you took it. Everyone will understand – you didn’t let anyone down. You did what was right for you. There’s nothing wrong with that.” But that voice sounds hippie dippy to me, so I’ll just say:
“Sometimes, I have to put myself first. Everything else can shove it.”
Yeah, that sounds like me.
