Yesterday was Monday, and it was unlike any other Monday has been for me in a while. Other than vacations or holidays, I woke up to no alarm clock and didn’t have to be anywhere by a certain time. I wasn’t fighting traffic in order to make it to my workplace and I wasn’t stressed about whether or not I would make it there on time. I also didn’t have to fight that same traffic coming home late, was able to have dinner ready at a reasonable time, and wasn’t tempted to go out to eat instead.

This is how Mondays are going to be for me for a while as I just quit my full-time job that had a horrible commute and caused me to be overly stressed on a regular basis. I am 34 weeks pregnant with our first baby, and I’m beyond excited to have time to get our house in order and accomplish a few things that need to be done before she arrives.

If you haven’t noticed, this blog was on a bit of a hiatus. I wasn’t able to manage much of anything aside from working and resting when possible. A new year is approaching and I hope that I am able to keep this blog alive from here on out.
