1) Long walk to make errands (first attempt of a no car approach)
Since I am at home from work, I am not moving as much as I would like. It should be the opposite, I should have much more time, but the movement that comes just from having to go to work and moving from one room to the other for the meetings and so on has gone.
Again I am trying to set up new routines to have long walks every day but it hasn't been easy because rather it's too hot for me to walk or it rains.
This morning I made another attempt: I walked to the market with my daughter on her bike. I am quite happy for the 8000 steps we made, but I am almost dead for the heavy weights I had to casey home.
I think this is a routine I will establish after I give birth, and I'll just use the car for the errands in this last pregnancy week!
2) A lot of research and reading for the blog
I am focusing on routines and habits and it's incredible how much literature (and web literature) you can find about the topic. One of the most difficult thing is filtering the useful information and the interesting hints from the rest.
3) Rest, rest, rest
I am entering my 39th week, so I have to admit, I spend a big part of the day just staying at home, resting, reading, playing with my daughter and it's really nice!
In these past years, I've spent my days working hard and then trying to balance life at work and at home, and usually, in summer, we just run away from home to take advantage of every free day to travel or to visit our parents who live far away.
This is my first summer after ages that I can spend at home and it's not bad at all.
I am enjoying the small things and taking my time for every thing I make.
I think I should learn to appreciate it more...
