I sat down to go through my tested recipes yesterday and came to the realization that I am running extremely low. In the three years I've had this blog, I've actually never run out of tested recipes to share which is something I'm extremely proud of. I was pretty taken aback at what little stock I had left and it kind of forced me to realize that I am struggling to juggle everything in my life right now. I'm kind of caught between a rock and hard place.
I'm working a lot, like, almost too much, with the intention of saving vast amounts of money for my trip back to Ireland in September. I'm on track to have significantly more money this time around which is definitely a good thing. With this of course, comes a lack of time for just about everything else. I'm struggling to find time to schedule hangouts with my friends. I'm struggling to find time to test recipes for my blog. I'm basically working everyday and that's about it. Obviously, I need to work as much as possible so that I can pay off my credit, my student loan, and save prior to leaving, but it appears to be coming at a cost. I'm often going in early or picking up extra shifts, eating away at the time I have to do things for my blog or in my personal life. It's hard for me to refuse helping out when I know that situations are grim at work, so I'm always saying yes. Without realizing it, my intentions of helping at work and saving money are actually hurting me more than helping. I'm legitimately working every single day, sometimes for over 10 hours a day, leaving me with literally no time for anything else. What am I to do?? Do you guys struggle with balancing out your time? I would imagine I'm not the only one with this problem, but fixing it is a lot more difficult than I anticipated. How do I keep saving, cut my hours, find time to test recipes, maintain relationships, and find me time to boot? Ugh, being an adult is quite a struggle sometimes isn't it? HAPPY VEG
