Back to Work

Walking with Cake: Old truck

(An old truck decorated for the holidays in Georgetown, Texas.)

We had a relaxing Christmas break, and I’m more than ready to get back into the swing of things. The boys don’t actually go back to school until later this week, but I’m looking forward to the return of our routine. My blogging break was refreshing, though I did find myself ready to write again last week. I held off and focused on other things instead, like watching television in the evenings and reading books and magazines.

By nature, I’m not big on resolutions, and I’m at a point in my life where things are staying the same these days.  The majority of my time is spent caring for my little guys, and my free time is spent reading (mostly online, if I’m totally honest) and blogging. I’m happy with my blog’s success and I hope to keep up the same rhythm and routine this year. I received a big stack of books for Christmas, and I want to make more time each day to actually sit and read quietly, like I did before I had children. I also plan to dive into my Alabama Chanin sewing kit which, sadly, sat untouched over the holidays. But there’s time for everything.

Ryan and I are also making more time to spend with each other after the boys go to bed, and that means he’s cut back on brewing while I’ve reduced my posting schedule. Parenting two boys leaves us exhausted at night, and while it’s easy to retreat to our regular routines, we’re using that time to talk about the day and relax together.

I’m looking forward to this year and I have a few upcoming projects in the works. I also have a few extra posts planned for this week, so be sure to check back each day.

Are you making any plans for 2015? I’d love to hear your thoughts, too.
