Lazy day for me today. I wash, dried and put away two loads of laundry but not sure I have gotten anything else accomplished today. No energy and nothing seems important enough to get up and do.

Have two things on my mind and am spending lots of energy trying to figure out what to do about them. One is a relationship thing and the other is planning a short trip. Not sure why I am struggling with either one but I am. Can’t seem to make a decision about what to do for the trip. I usually am a quick decision maker and adjust on the fly but for some reason can’t seem to decide what to do with this one. I’ll figure it out – sooner or later. Still exploring some options.

The relationship thingy is a hard one for me. I seem to have a yo-yo relationship with this person and can’t seem to stay on track with them. It takes two to solve this and the other person doesn’t seem to want to do that. I keep telling myself to hold my boundaries and that their reaction to what I do is not my business or my problem. This is a hard habit for me to break. Someday I will allow this to come easy to me – just thinking today isn’t that day – yet!

Lots of burning going on around me today. The smoke is very thick south of me. My neighbor hasn’t burned yet. I decided not to burn this year as the grass is scarce and thin. The front yard is going to look bad this year if we don’t get some rain. Still haven’t had to mow as my grass hasn’t filled in yet and have more brown patches than green ones. The fire danger is getting higher by the day.

We are having family day Saturday. Nicole and Geoff may be coming down Friday night and staying through Saturday and maybe into Sunday. I cleared out the bedroom downstairs thinking I wasn’t going to have company again. Oh well, it is family. They are super easy guests and we can make it work. It will be fun to have the kids all home Saturday. I need to get the Easter eggs ready and double check to see if I need to get anything in town tomorrow in addition to some more bananas. Ellexia requested banana pudding. Family days are my favorite days of the year and I am grateful the kids will come home so that can happen. It fills my heart every time we gather.

Tomorrow I have to go to town for exercise in the afternoon. Will stop and get a few groceries and then come back home. I don’t think I have anything else I need to do while I am in town.

The new bed is very comfortable. It has some sort of coil that helps prevent the whole bed from moving when I move around. The other bed shook and rocked every time I turned over. I’m grateful I treated myself to a new bed. Maybe sleep will find me easier now.

Just call an email that let me know the siding guys are coming tomorrow to finish cleaning up the siding repair job. It will be so good to have that project finished up. Haven’t heard from the guttering guys. I was expecting them this week but so far they haven’t showed up. Guess they will get here when they get here. Maybe both groups will show up tomorrow and get me taken care of.

The Rural Electric company showed up to look at the transformer base. Overtime it has tilted and the transformer is about to slide off. I had reported it months ago. The guy said the transformer may need to be replaced. We shall see how this goes down and what they do. Trusting I won’t have to pay for it but we shall see.

Feeling a bit restless today. Having trouble getting grounded and centered. I have been sitting and stewing for too long and need to get up and move my body and move this heavy energy out. And this too shall pass….

Grateful the EFIS guys are coming tomorrow to finish up that project, grateful the Rural Electric is finally getting to the transformer, and grateful for my new comfortable bed.
