Planning for the Future

I can’t believe how quickly this summer is going!! It’s already the second week in August and before you know it, it will be September. September always makes me think of going back to school. This September I will, in a way, be headed back to school as I am starting the last phase of my masters. It will be time for me to start my practicum!!

I have two more trips planned before my practicum. Later this month I will be heading to Massachusetts for the last phase of my Mindfulness training. When this is complete I will be qualified to start teaching the 8 week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction program. Yay!! Three days after I come home I will be heading out again. This time, my parents and I will be heading to Ireland for my cousins wedding and my first real vacation in 4 years! I can’t wait.

With everything that I have coming up it’s time to sit down and start planning for the future.

Since my schedule will be changing it is time for me to really sit down and start planning everything out. I have so many ideas for things that I want to do here on the blog. I also have some things to do to get ready for my training and for my practicum. Plus packing for both trips and doing my regular chores around my condo.

Speaking of the condo, there will be some big changes happening there over the next few months. Up to now I have been living with a roommate, one of my best friends, but she will be moving out so that she can live with her boyfriend. It’s the end of an era šŸ™

Other than the three years I was recovering at my parents, we have lived together for 7 years!! It will be weird living on my own as I have never done it before, but I’m also a little excited about it!

With her moving out I will be doing some redecorating so you can look forward to seeing some of that on here.

As I said, I have a lot of planning to do so that I can fit everything in. I’m taking this week to write everything down in my planner so that I don’t miss any deadlines. I’m also implementing an editorial calendar for the blog so that I can stay on top of things here. I have a LOT of notes and pages of ideas and now I just need to find the time to start implementing them!!

It feels good to be so busy. For the longest time I didn’t do much but now I am slowly working on building up my strength so that I can get back to doing the things that I love. My recovery has been (and still is) pretty slow, and things take me a long time to complete, but I am learning how to adapt to the new me. I am still very much a work in progress but I am starting to see it take shape.

Do you have any plans for the fall? Let me know in the comments below.
