Comments on: My Thoughts of the Day – Ma pensée du jour http://thosecorwins.com/2010/01/my-thoughts-of-the-day-ma-pensee-du-jour/ Two Married Twenty-Somethings who think they know it all Thu, 29 Jul 2010 00:15:28 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc By: Emily Jane http://thosecorwins.com/2010/01/my-thoughts-of-the-day-ma-pensee-du-jour/comment-page-1/#comment-26744 Emily Jane Fri, 12 Feb 2010 16:08:43 +0000 http://thosecorwins.com/?p=2431#comment-26744 What a beautiful photo, and I totally hear you. It's tough to be more upbeat when it's so sucky outside - currently there's snow up to my waist in my back yard and there's another 3 months before it starts to warm up. I hate winter, but I find it's the most important time to focus on those little things because they're so much more scarce. Lately I've been finding it tough to find some "me time" outside of work, household chores, cooking, errands... but I'm trying to do something for at least half an hour each day that makes me happy, whether it's splurging on a pack of gourmet coffee for the early, cold mornings, or curling up with a cat in bed and reading for an extra 15 minutes before bed. And lots of loud one-person dance parties to really awesome music :) What a beautiful photo, and I totally hear you.

I have so many projects and chores I want to work on but by the end of the day, I want to go to the gym and then relax. When I do laundry I try to listen to music I like, or if I'm ironing I have a movie or documentary on that I've wanted to check out. Multi-tasking is my friend but somedays it totally burns me out. Taking time out for you or for you/your man is always a great idea. Little mini date nights (even with takeout to make it easier), a night on the couch with a good book or just relaxing is always helpful! I would be all for bread and cheese too since I can't live in France either. I’m a little late in reading this but I struggle with this too.

Your lack of time I know is long hours working. Mine is because I'm a winter hibernating bear. I've gotten Christmas decorations put away, but haven't quite put everything back. January usually brings me into the mode of ORGANIZING. Well I'm just dabbling into it a little bit. Also, I blame my laptop. Don't get me wrong I love it. Sure is a time eater though. I refuse to start the facebook thing. I hope those don't end up being famous last words. Whoa……you hit the nail on the head. Your lack of time I know is long hours working.

That helps too. Bubble baths, adding a little cinnamon & cardamom to our coffee grounds, and fancy hoodies <3

Lovely header. Lovely shot. ^_^ I'm with ya on the winterness. Short, drab, dark days get to me. I'm not depressed, but I really do think there's something to the whole "seasonal affective disorder". Not so sure I'd call it a disorder, though. I tend to believe we just aren't getting enough sun. I'm thinking seriously about strapping a solar panel to my head. You with me?

I was looking at the classes and it doesn't look like they have much left for Saturday classes. But maybe a Friday evening one? Cheese & Wine Pairing Friday, March 26 6:30 – 8:30 pm ?? I could probably swing at Friday evening. If you want to sign up, let me know because, WOAH, that would be awesome. Okay I sooo want to!
