I had trouble finding sleep last night. When I did sleep, I had very vivid dreams which is unusual for me. I would wake myself up to change the dream channel. Sure makes for a long night when that happens.
I went to Emporia this morning to get my flu shot. My arm is a bit sore this afternoon. Trusting I won’t crash tomorrow as I have to go to the Vo-Tech in the afternoon to get my teeth cleaned. We shall see what happens.
I didn’t have anything else to do in Emporia. I picked up a few things I needed while I was at Walmart and then came home. I fell asleep in my chair and took a nap this afternoon. I feel very short on sleep as it has been a hot minute or two or three since I have had a restful night’s sleep.
Found out Tagen is playing football in Overland Park Friday night. I have to go to Topeka Friday for my ultrasound and blood draw so think I will go to KC after that. I sent an email to some friends to see if they want to hook up Friday afternoon. If not, I will find something to do. I do need to stop at Costco and pick up a few things before I go to the game. It will probably be Tagen’s last game as it is the state playoffs and they are playing a very good team. Not sure if he will get to play, but I feel it is important I go support him.
It has been very windy on the prairie today. I have doors and windows open. The dust has found a new home inside my house. You could write your name on my coffee table with your finger in the dust that is covering it. No use cleaning it up until we get some rain. We have a good chance for rain this week. Crossing my fingers and toes we get a couple of inches.
It reached the mid 80’s again today. Tomorrow the high is to be 69. Hoping this is the last of the 80’s for the year. It is a touch too warm for me today.
I let the Pella guy know I had gone with a different window company. He sent a rather nasty letter to me complaining about my decision. Oh well. If he is going to act like that, I’m glad I didn’t go with him. I haven’t gotten an update on when the windows will be installed. Trusting they will be here sometime next week. If we get rain this week, it might delay them. I will take a delay if it means we get rain.
I haven’t watched another boundary workshop class yet. I’m still letting the last one sink in. I keep thinking of situations where I can apply the formula that my responsibility is equal to my power to change the situation. This feels really big to me and freeing. The way life usually works for me when I get a new understanding and learning, is that life will offer me an opportunity to apply this new learnings in the next bit. Once that happens and I am successful, I got it! Wonder what this opportunity will be?
The lady coordinating the health fair let me know that the last health fair had about 150 people in attendance. I will need to make 50 more giveaways. No real problem if we run out but I didn’t want to make lots more then we need. I still need to come up with a gift for the drawing.
Don’t have an abundance of energy today. Thinking the lack of sleep is catching up with me. Not sure what it is going to take to get a good night’s sleep. The sleep aide that I was using is no longer helping me. Kathy reports she is struggling with sleep right now too. I’ll be grateful when the lunar eclipse happens Saturday night and the collective energy settles back down again.
Still staying on my eating plan and using fasting. I usually fast between 18 – 19 hours a day. I eat breakfast and one meal and then start fasting again. I rarely get hungry and am continuing to lose weight. I usually drop a pound or two and then stall out for several days and then drop another pound. It will be several months before I get back down to where I want to be.
Grateful for afternoon naps in my chair, grateful for what sleep I did get, and grateful for the good chance of rain over the next couple of days.
