Good morning! We finally ended up with about an inch of rain last night, it happened in the early morning hours and I woke up for it because of the dog and the thunder. Today is cooler so I have windows and back door open--if felt great when I took the dog out.
I'm eating breakfast and planning the day. I'd like to mow the front at some point if the grass dries, other than that nothing in particular on the agenda.

I've been rebelling against my lists since I've been feeling better. I was only able to do minimums so many times due to illness that I have a major case of the "I don't wannna's" to break through again like I did when I started 18 months ago. I don't want to be consistent. I don't want to do more than minimums even though I am more than capable today. It is almost as though I have a case of Spring Break Fever. I wonder if I give myself a week off to play if it would help me get back into the groove after? Something to contemplate.
Diane and Sue, enjoy your weather.
to do coffee, smoothie, meds x2

Good morning, Dianne, Sue, and Peace!
I was away from home for a week on a trip. I have been back for two and a half days and haven’t done a THInG. I haven’t even unloaded my car! This morning, I am laying here in bed thinking I don’t want to do anything, but I know I *need* to. I have a lot going on this week and I have written out some goals for myself.

I never thought of tasks as “minimums and maximums” before. That is an interesting perspective and gives me something to think about. Thank you.

Good morning all. Thanks for starting us off today Diane TwinkleToes you are getting so much done already!! I wasted yesterday in many ways, had the house to myself, had a big and important project (personal life not work) to do and instead I squandered the day. total self sabotage!! ugh. oh well all I can do is move forward. I also ate like a true glutton. I guess I should not be left alone!!!! so far today took a long and wonderful spa shower took an hour or so off to take DD to and fro I was up really early like 5 and it was pouring rain and windy so I went out back in my nightgown to put down the patio umbrella! I was drenched. I also did a little pick up then I did fall back asleep until time for work Had one short meeting This is a super challenging week at work due to hard deadlines with decisions that will have a long term impact. this is a tough week every year. I have so much to do for it and it requires very organized thinking. I know the outcome that I need but the steps to get there are detailed, confusing and cumbersome. I think I need to try and write them all out and create a road map as it seems overwhelming right now. I don't want to wish my life away but weeks like this I think fondly of retirement. I also now have to work on the big personal project that I sabotaged yesterday as it also has a hard deadline. This is a tough day!!!
