Today I did my weekly shopping and picked up three more Elizabeth Haub Foundation bags. I meant to pick up two, but accidentally took one more off the rack and decided to go with it. This time I got all Monarch Butterfly bags to mix it up some. I think five of these bags are more than enough because they’re larger than the plastic bags, and today I did my regular shopping plus Thanksgiving shopping. Even with the 13.22 lb turkey, I only filled up four bags. I changed my mind about the two sets of handles; I like them! I simply use the long handles for putting a bag each over each shoulder, leaving my hands free to use the smaller handles for the other bags. That means one trip from the car to home! Yay! No more accumulating 100,000 plastic bags! Whoo-hoo!
I’ve been able to get more me time in by focusing on the positive and what’s important to me. Sometimes it’s lonesome, sometimes rewarding. Some of it involves other people, some involves just me. It all boils down focusing on what’s important and squeezing in time for it. Sometimes fitting it in feels like a strict, regimented schedule, but to me it’s better than not fitting it in. It’s all a balancing act. Life is busy, and the business deserves to be rewarded.
