in between.

this is who i've been spending most of my time with these days. emi is loving the fact that i'm not working. can't you tell by her smile?

oddly enough, i've been busier than ever. the world is so different during working hours and by different, i mean empty! most of my mornings are spent at the gym. i used to have to fit in my workouts either real early in the morning, or right after work. i still go to my 5:30am kickboxing class on mondays and fridays, but now i can fit in yoga, cycling, or even a swim at our pool. the rest of the day is usually spent taking emi on walks, or running errands and doing house chores. i've also been taking a lot of nice long baths lately, i almost forgot what it felt like to relax in a tub. i've come to believe that every woman deserves a hot bubble bath at least once a week. it's free and a real treat - try it!

i have to admit, being unemployed is probably the best thing that has happened to me in a long time and while my bank account cries everytime i swipe my debit card, something in me tells me that it's all going to be okay. today i took emi to the park and sat in the shade with her for a good while, listening to the quiet and thinking about life and what to make of it.

i know that this is a transitional period for me. it's a little God given downtime for me to take a step back and breathe. it's something i know i needed, but probably would have never done if not given the opportunity to do so. i am so very, very grateful for every minute of this time because i truly believe that time is the greatest gift that anyone can ever receive and i accept this gift with everything i have.

let's see where this road will lead.
