Facets of December 2019 ~ Monthly Digest

The last month of the last year of the decade.  On the cusp of the new year, I was on the path to preparing for a successful start to January.  November had created a great foundation for me to start December off well, but as it were, I am not the master of my own month, nor can I control all the factors of my life to work in tandem. *Sigh* such is the life of a mom.  You know? No matter how much planning, scheduling, organising, manifesting you put into play, the unknown will always have a way of…

Facets of November 2019 ~ Monthly Digest

Ever since I turned 30, November has become this sort of looming cloud of confusion.  I was always a birthday freak. I loved celebrating my birthday! Heck, I always thought that my birthday should be a national holiday.  That’s the type of girl I was. Fast forward to now, I crave something more than cake and presents. This month I explored what genuinely celebrating me could feel like… Of Momming I have a full fledged little person.  Not to be confused with a child.

The transition to being parents of a school-goer has not been easy.  Essentially, we are accountable to so much more, it’s overwhelming. September also brought with it a pace of life that’s making me crave a little monotony, a little peace and quiet.  Am I getting old? Lol – don’t shoot me mom! I guess I have just over committed myself. That’s essentially it. Let’s have a read shall…

Facets of August 2019 ~ Monthly Digest

What an eventful month it has been.  With Eid ul Adha springing up out of nowhere, to the extra time I was given to spend with my son, to the uphill battle of real sadness, and the joy of making pure and simple advances in self care, I can honestly say August has been a rollercoaster of real emotions.  But that’s okay. I welcome it all. This is a huge change for me. I have really started to come into my own lately. Which is a relief, because not feeling comfortable in my own skin was becoming comfortable – how…
