My father in law and a couple of friends in nursing school were and are all really good about keeping a good work-life balance. I think being around them has really inspired me and motivated me to find my own balance and to not placed too much worth in my work. Glad you liked the post! :) you keep working at those priorities and self care- it's totally worth it!Sarah @ Sometimesphotojenikhttp://www.sometimesphotojenik.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-82745024932860039322015-04-08T21:05:31.786-06:002015-04-08T21:05:31.786-06:00I really do feel like you blog for me.

Which is weird, but reading your posts makes me realize that I'm not alone AND that I need friends like you to learn from. :) Anyway, thank you for your passion for work-life balance! It's contagious and it's got me re-thinking my priorities and need for better self-care! :)Kikihttp://www.initstimeblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-87625821349188294452014-12-09T11:14:07.590-07:002014-12-09T11:14:07.590-07:00I often have to remind myself that my day-to-day r...I often have to remind myself that my day-to-day relationships are just as important as what I'm doing at work :) Thanks for stopping by!Sometimesphotojenikhttp://www.sometimesphotojenik.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-13663068547113361322014-12-09T11:13:21.360-07:002014-12-09T11:13:21.360-07:00ahhhh brilliant!

When I'm doing revisions for exams, I think of nothing else. When I'm at work, I don't think of school work. *shrug*Elizabeth Thanhttp://nomelizabeth.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-52552918609712162832014-12-08T11:11:31.919-07:002014-12-08T11:11:31.919-07:00love all of these techniques! especially the suitc...love all of these techniques! especially the suitcases & locking in the car door!Robyn Blackhttp://www.robynsnest.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-47296676235389772292014-12-08T09:31:16.192-07:002014-12-08T09:31:16.192-07:00I used to really struggle with this one too!

The only cure I found was to stop working for a while to go traveling :-) Of course, probably not a realistic solution in the long run.Ellenhttp://thecynicalsailor.blogspot.co.nz/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-18507814818563567122014-12-08T08:43:44.176-07:002014-12-08T08:43:44.176-07:00I found your blog via Oak and Oat's Week's...I found your blog via Oak and Oat's Week's End link-up. I so appreciate the question you raise, "How many of us feel more useful and needed in our jobs than at home? " It's one that I think so many people - including myself - can relate to. As a youth pastor, I also appreciated your take on Jesus' life and ministry and how he navigated the work / life balance.

I find that work life balance is something we must continue to be aware of because it's so easy to let things become out of balance. I'm having to readjust currently myself - so needless to say, my house needs cleaning but I'm ok with it! Great post.Sheryl @ How to Make a Lifehttp://howtomakealife.com/noreply@blogger.com
