I declared today a PJ day and decided to stay in my PJ’s all day. I put on a pair of sweat pants and then pulled on a sweatshirt over my PJ’s so I would stay warm. Hope no one drops by today as I look a little mismatched and not put together today. I don’t think I have even brushed my hair today yet.
The wind was a blowing this morning and it was cold and cloudy out. The sun has come out this afternoon but it is still windy and cold. Good day to stay inside by the fireplace. I do have to venture down to do the chickens later but hopefully they won’t laugh at my outfit for the day.
Tagen is coming out for lunch tomorrow and then is going to clean out the chicken coop for me. It is to be in the mid 50’s tomorrow and be sunny so should be a good day to get that done. When I asked him what he wanted for lunch, he said chicken strips sounded good. The next text I got from him said and macaroni and cheese of course! He must have read my mind because that was what I had thought I would fix. That kid does like his chicken strips and macaroni and cheese. He is easy to fix lunch for.
Had trouble finding sleep last night. I went to bed fairly early and slept for three hours but then was awake for several hours before I went back to bed and slept another two or three hours. I never feel rested when I have nights like that. Grateful I got the second sleep but wish I could have slept in longer this morning.
I need to run to Walmart for a few groceries and to pick up a prescription that is ready but thinking I will wait and go Monday. That way I can avoid the crowd this weekend and go to the Chiropractor while I am in town Monday. I think I have everything I need to fix Tagen lunch tomorrow without going shopping today.
Made a crockpot of White Chicken Chili for lunch today. It was really good. I have too much leftover though. Maybe Tagen will take some home with him tomorrow. It was a good day to fix soup.
We are forecast to have four days in a row towards the end of the week that the temperature day and night is to be over 40. Too bad it is a holiday weekend coming up and the Efis guy probably won’t come. Crossing my fingers this will happen again in January and he can come get that project started.
Still sitting with some restlessness. I think it is from too much empty space and the after Christmas let down. I keep exploring things to put on my calendar to give myself a bit of structure but haven’t settled on the right thing yet. I have some ideas of some classes I would like to offer but haven’t settled on which direction to go yet. When the timing is right, the right thing will appear.
I read through a decluttering page on Facebook today. It is so interesting to me how people deal with clutter and how creative they are avoiding dealing with it. So very grateful I started that journey 20 years ago and continue to work on stopping the incoming and sending things out that no longer serve. My mind doesn’t function well when I have cluttered spaces. The hardest part of that journey was the beginning steps. It sure gets easier the longer one manages it.
I was actually looking for a daily/weekly/monthly routine page. I need to put some structure into my life around housecleaning and know there are pages out there that lay out a whole house over the course of a month and suggest places to clean daily. I like checking things off a list and thought that might be beneficial to me. Haven’t found what I am looking for yet but will keep looking.
Grateful Tagen is coming tomorrow to clean out the chicken coop, grateful for what sleep I did get last night, and grateful for the White Chicken Chili I made for lunch today.
