Time of Changes

Hello Everyone,

I hope you are all doing good. After two challenging months, I can also say I am finally doing good again.

The last blog post I published was sent from my hotel room during a nice 10-days vacation with my family. It was really nice and I enjoyed some relax time and Vitamine D.

Least I know how hard was going to be, coming back home to reality.

To keep it short, my partner since 10 years decided to move out. I struggled the first three days after this announcement and actually begged him to not throw these years together out of the window. Anyway, he didn’t change his mind, even when he faced how this hurt me.

I gave myself some time and started to evaluate objectively his decision. I realized how strong I am as a woman and mother. Started a self-care journey: wrote down list of things that makes me happy and started to strike-through some of the points. I reconnected with my inner self and understood that nobody values more than my own happiness.

So I understood how to let him go, for good.

I found myself constantly thinking about my past relationship so I had to keep myself busy in the quiet hours (when the little is sleeping).

I took advantage of this solo time to concentrate on a knitting project for my little one.

It is still a work in progress but it helps to shut down my brain for few hours. I am making a blanket with the double knitting technique.

This is my first double knitting project and I have to admit that it was easier than I thought. I work front and back on the same round and it feels so rewarding to see the blanket grow (with only few mistakes).
