This has been mostly a quiet day at home. I did run into Emporia for a few groceries. I got what I needed and came right home. Walmart wasn’t too busy and I was able to get in and out quickly.
I took some time and made a master list of all the things I have pending. I was getting overwhelmed and needed one list of things that are going on. It helps me calm down a bit and remember that I can do this. Seems like I have about 10 projects going on and all of them are waiting for something or someone to do something before I can do something. It is easy to drop the ball and forget where I am if I don’t keep a list.
Kathy and I decided not to go to the parade. Kathy had mowed the yard today and was hot and tired. I had gone to Emporia and was done with people today. We could hear the noise from the parade from our house. I’m grateful I stayed home. Not in the mood for noise and crowds today.
It warmed up today. I noticed we have another round of storms coming in Tuesday. I also noticed that the northern lights are visible in this area again. If I can’t sleep tonight and it stays clear I might go out after sunset and see if I can find them tonight.
Tomorrow is another stay-at-home day. I have some cleaning that needs done and some decluttering that needs to happen. Trusting I will be in the mood to get some things done tomorrow.
Monday we are going to KC. We have a 10:00 appointment so will need to leave around 8:00. With the trip to MA and now these two trips to KC I will be needing to change the oil on my car again soon. Last time I went seven months before I drove 6,000 miles. This time I probably won’t make three months.
This has felt like a long day to me. I am tired of so many non-productive days in a row. Yet, I have little to no energy to do much. I know my body needs this time of rest but am struggling a bit to relax in to it. I know most of what I am feeling is that in-between thing. So many projects going on yet I can’t move any of them along. My inpatient habit is rearing its ugly head again. I see it, I hear it, and I am honoring it to be what it is. And this too shall pass.
Grateful for a beautiful day, grateful the grocery shopping got completed today, and grateful tomorrow is a stay-at-home day.
