Loving February afternoons

Today I left work relatively early for me - 3:45pm. I rarely left work before 6:30pm last year and this year I have made a concerted effort to leave earlier to improve my quality of life. Don't get me wrong - I have a great life and I am most thankful for all that I have and do. I suppose what I mean is that I felt that I needed to develop a better balance between work and home life.

When I arrived home, my husband and I decided to go for a swim which was lovely! I am really loving the fact that he can take a break for an hour when I get home at this time - we can do things and then he can do another couple of hours of work afterwards while I cook dinner. I LOVE COOKING!!!

It was great going for a swim this afternoon. It was nice to just float around and do a couple of laps whilst watching the ships in the distance and the planes flying into and out of Sydney airport.

I hope that by establishing a better work - life balance, that it will keep me refreshed longer and full of energy. I have to say that making the effort to leave work at a reasonable hour has been fabulous because it has allowed me to spend more time with Mark - which is what I love to do!

Have a lovely afternoon
