Today I took a bike ride with tunes in my ears and reflected on the past couple of weeks. Having a more set schedule has really allowed me to not worry so much about work and focus more on myself, my family, and my life outside of work. I'm also off on the weekends when everyone else tends to have off, so I am able to make it to more family functions. It is a blessing and a curse. I get to see my family more often, but it gets expensive and exhausting traveling. It has gotten easier to say no to not going somewhere simply because I do not want to. I use to say things to myself such as, "What if they get upset because I do not want to go, I should make up some excuse." Now, I simply just say no and give the real reason because it shouldn't matter. I would rather be 'real' than be the person who makes excuses. Ok, off subject a bit... back to reflection.
