Priorities

Do you sometimes wonder if you've got your priorities right? I do, because right now I'm sitting in my sweats working on church stuff and blogging with my cup of coffee, when my house is a mess, the dishwasher needs running and the laundry is starting to pile up. But, strangely I'm okay with that. I had the entire weekend off, the entire weekend off to get things done and I did nothing. Nothing but spend time with my husband and just relax and catch up on my personal time. I worked on some fliers for church, and for our photography business -which I may try to post as pdf's on here if I can figure it out, we're running fall specials for friends and repeat customers that aren't on the website, I slept in, drank lots of coffee, had an actual date night with my husband, rented a movie, and just really had downtime together, at home, for the first time since before school started.

Now it's Monday, and when I look around I feel like I got nothing accomplished this weekend, but maybe that's a good thing. Being a housewife is confusing, I feel like my purpose is to keep us organized and clean and fed, and so forth, but I forget that's only half of it. That's the "house" part, and if the "house" part is lagging because the "wife" part is excelling, then that's okay I guess. I never would have thought I'd be saying my priorities are okay because my house is a mess, but I am.
