They say it takes 21 days to make or break a habit. I have one habit I need to break and one I need to make. The habit I need and want to break is not allowing time for myself. I am always on the go. Constantly forgetting about me (ok maybe some days I get down and moody and I think only about me), but I am saying I forget to take care of my soul house! The habit I want to make is to start blogging more. I want to continue to blog about my journey of placement and how I have healed and how I continue to grow, but I also just want to share my life. I want to journal. I want to be able to turn my blog into a hard copy one day that I can share with my family. I have the opportunity to begin blogging here soon as a "workshop" and I am excited. The founder of Blessings in a Basket, Ashley Mitchell, has a test group starting for a new project that she is putting together for the adoption community. She comes up with so many amazing ideas. I am one of the lucky and fortunate ones that she selected to be apart of the test group.

When she sent this message out I decided to challenge myself. First, I do not want to fall short of Ashley's expectations for those that she selected. Second, I will start breaking my bad habit of not allowing time for myself and I will be doing this by third, taking an hour of my time to write in my blog/journal. I will give myself time to reflect on where I have been, how far I have come, and how I have gotten here. It feels great being back on here and writing and I know that if I do this everyday I will have a more uplifted spirit and have a continuous smile on my face. I can't wait to come back and share my stories with you all! Best of all I am learning how to create the blog that I have always wanted. So, not only should you be looking out for new blog posts, watch out for the amazing transformation of my blog design thanks to Shabbyblog!
With Love,
