At the beginning of the summer,
I shared some thoughts with you.
Thoughts of calmer, slower days,
Less scheduling to do.

As usual, things don’t go as planned.
Work demands greater than predicted.
Family time got sacrificed,
Not the summer I’d depicted.

I won’t complain about it, though,
Business-wise, I’m more than pleased.
I’m also fortunate to have had
Some “family moments” that I seized.

I’m now making resolutions,
As Back to School is near.
To find that work-life balance;
Spend more time with those whom I find dear.

I’m starting this very minute.
I’m going to be with my kids and play.
The best way to keep my resolution
Is to start on it today!

Are you struggling with work-life balance issues? Do you feel like you should have or could have done more with your loved ones this summer?  I’d love to hear your thoughts…

Have a wonderful weekend with those you love,

Tanya
