New TIme Zone

... neither J or I have contracts on at the moment so time is fragmented and without sense right now. J is chasing a new contract with a very yummy company and I've started full focus on business plan writing. With R starting full time school next year, I'd be pretty happy for this year to be about gearing into and towards new ways of working. Plan-on-paper time.

Coming down from a tight-time based project also means more time with wee R and JJ. The challenge with work is not allowing it to take all of my focus. I know that I unplug from her and J when I have big work focus and I'm ok with that as long as the projects are short. Time travels thought, and this week R and J and I have been lapping up the family time. It's been a sweet week: going out for dinners, tentative travel planning, long morning walks, both of us taking R to school and picking her up, meetings with good women, visits from friends with us all hanging and enjoying, time alone, anticipating friends flying in for visits in a week, gardening and work that fits into the family rather than the other way around as it is when we're in deadline zone.

We've been back in our home now for a year and it feels very good and very right; the bestest year so far. Nice week, this week. And the sun has been very hospitable, indeed. Isn't it funny how time picks you up and plonks you into new zones of either contentment, discord or fancy over decorated pavlova made of the two, just like 'that'?
