Taking the time to take stock + what’s on my mind?
One of the wonderful things about being on holidays is having the time to think.
Sure, between playing with the kids, sewing up a storm for my Etsy shop, and the usual domestic biz, there’s not a whole lot of *spare* time.
However, I have still found time to think, mull over and take stock.
I received a brilliant email newsletter from Meet Me at Mikes Pip Lincolne (do you subscribe? – it’s fab!). Her lovely post came with a list she had compiled taking stock, and an invitation to do the same. So here it is… There’s a blank list below if you’d like to do the same! Maybe even print it out and keep it, then take a look at the end of the year?
