Yesterday I returned to work after my brief staycation and I had a truly crap day. It wasn’t about work, in fact although I do gripe now and then I do enjoy many aspects of my job, but there was a bunch of stuff going on with me and around me and to me that made for a craptastic kind of Monday and by 9pm I’d decided to just throw in the towel and go to bed. When a day kicks me in the bum like that I like to think of some of the positives that I have accomplished or have experienced or have just seen recently.
- I have decided to become a regular volunteer for Habitat for Humanity and I plan to volunteer at least four times a year.
- I am on hat 39 and almost done Challenge 13. This will not exactly cut my craft supplies in half, but it’s used up a lot of my yarn and I will be taking a rest from knitting for a bit. i’m also glad I will be able to donate them before it gets any colder as there is no point in donating knit hats in the summer.
- It turns out there are two indoor golf facilities near me so apparently I can learn to golf in the snow.
- I told a friend the plots for my screenplay and my novel and she enjoyed both.
- I am now writing a Real Estate blog for a friend and getting paid in yoga.
- During a phone call with my mom she suggested that I should get a TV. I told her I would prefer to use that kind of money for buying myself a pair of roller skates. I’m pretty sure I could hear her eyes roll and I’m pretty sure that despite her protests she knew that I was serious.
- I got a lot of sleep on my staycation and I felt really good. I knew that I would but it’s proof positive that my first priority in better health is more sleep.
- Autumn is my favourite season and I love the crisp air and the beautiful colours of the changing leaves.
