As the dawn of the New Year approaches, I wanted to say - it's ok if you didn't hit your goals this year. It's ok if you didn't even have any goals. And it's totally ok if the goals you had (like me) changed more times than Kim Kardashians wardrobe.
It's ok if you (like me) crawled to the finish line and are soo glad that the year that was 2022 is almost over.
It's ok if you haven't reflected, journalled or acknowledged your achievements. If you haven't saved all your photos in folders, made a memory book, decluttered your home or crossed things off your bucket list this year.
If all you did this year was show up for yourself and your family, put food on the table and get some sleep at night, then that IS enough.
Mum life can be so challenging. There is no actual way to express in words just how challenging it is. The old adage, "you can't know what its like to have kids until you have kids, is so true. Sometimes getting to 8pm seems like running an ultra marathon.
So for those of you, like me, that don't have a plan for 2023, a vision board, a power word, or a shiny new journal (to never write in), I wanted to say that I got you friend.
And that there is time. 365 days of it in fact (2023 is not a leap year for anyone wondering). You must certainly don't need to have it all figured out by 1 Jan. (Plus my self says whats the fun in that, there's gotta be some last min pressure to actually get stuff done!)
Whatever you do or don't do* tonight (*pjs, jacket potatoes and a good british drama is my NYE plan) have fun and be kind to yourself.
See you on the other side for more keep it real, mum life, low tox adventures. xoxo
