Breaking Through

In fact, a master plan: How to reinvent myself in 45 days. I’m a mother of 2 and a wife to a caring husband. We live in the UK in a house that we spent a lot of time and money on to look just as we wanted. So I have everything that people regard as important to be happy. Although I feel happy I think that there is a part of me missing and I’m desperate to find out what it is. So here is a woman trying to reinvent herself at the age of 44. Furthermore, a woman seeking her real identity.For a long time, I tried to find a way to accommodate my personal life, motherhood and return to my career, but I found it so complicated that, in the end, I decided to be a just a full time mum. Being a mother is a complex role. It gives you pleasure, but- God, it’s hard work! At first, I didn’t cope very well,but after my second child was born, I realised how important my role as a mother was, so I felt happy to be helping my children to grow into confident individuals. This crisis I’ve overcome. The mother in me is happy. I just need to sort out the woman and the professional.The question is: How to reinvent myself? I have no clue , but I’ll try every possibility on the next 45 days.

Day three

Sunday should be a day to relax... Really?
One of the children had a party to go, the other one had a swimming lesson. So we spent the morning up and down  transporting them to their activities. And then I had to prepare lunch. After lunch I was thinking of inviting everybody for a walk, as it was such a beautiful day,  but I was so tired I just collapsed on the sofa. Maybe next Sunday.  As I’m in organising mood I think I’ll make some change to the children’s activities. No more activities on Sunday or Saturday! Yes. I will definitely do that.
 And soon it was that time of the day again - bed time.  Getting ready for Monday morning and wondering how I’m going to fit in my personal objectives.
 I feel that I’ve just wasted two days of my challenge.

    You did not. You just decided to cancel set activities to the week ends.

    I much prefer that way.
