Decisions Made

Red Envelopes, White invitation with Blue Flower Design

Once I wrote my last post, I felt a tiny bit of the weight of that decision lift off me. Writing something down always helps me put it into perspective, and I realized that in the grand scheme of things, this wasn’t a huge decision. That made it SO much easier to just make it already.

We decided to go with printable invitations, from e.m. papers. These were some of the first invitations I looked at, and it’s always kind of satisfying to come back, in the final decision, to something I liked at the beginning of the process. Yesterday I had the save the dates printed, cut them, and I stuffed them into envelopes. Feels like progress!

Which is good, because I feel like progress in other areas of my life has been slow going lately. You can probably tell that I haven’t been writing every day as I had hoped to do this month, and it’s hard not to feel frustrated by that. I’ve been busy, and the jury trial I’m currently serving on has thrown my regular routine all out of whack.

It feels good to have accomplished this one small goal. I think that’s what I need to focus on for awhile: one small goal a day, rather than big, sweeping goals for a month, or a year. Sometimes you have to think small to get big things done, right?
