Okay, so tonight I was thinking about how to have a better relationship with my family. The last two months have been crazy busy, and next month is going to be just as bad.
I had this thought (which I have had several times before) that I need to be unplugged when the kids get home from school.
I have tried this, and since my afternoons are not the empty easy-going time I imagined, it has not happened much at all.
What being"unplugged" means to me is: being done with house work (or at least not doing it), putting down the book, pausing the sewing/crafts I am doing, and not working on the computer. This is just for the hour after they are home.
Many times I have just one more load of laundry to fold, or one more picture to crop, or one more step on my crafts to finish. But then I miss the moment.
Soon my goal for April (which I will start this week so I can tweak it) is to be unplugged when the kids get home.
