Today’s blog is a mixed bag. I have the heaviest heart I’ve had in a LONG time today, so I’m choosing to be busy at home, which isn’t hard, but I’m also being selective. Hear me out.
Priority one is that I’m proof reading/editing a document for someone. It won’t be a hard thing. I can do it from the comfort of a recliner, but my mind will still be busy 🙂 Also, I feel some confidence in my ability to actually be useful in this way, so that feels good to me. A morale boost, so to speak.
Speaking of morale boost, my sweet neighbour cleaned our her closet and sent a boxy of cozy things my way 💜 So that is also a win! I’m SO fortunate.
Another goal of the day is to tidy my room. I feel like a kid even saying it, but its just the truth, lol! My side of our room gets SO cluttered. I’ve been making baskets recently and I’m using up some of my ends of yarn skeins, so I just have tiny little skeins rolling ALL over the place and it needs to change. Also, since I’ve been crocheting so much more, my cabinets have big holes all through them and the whole thing just needs to be reorganized. I’m actually really looking forward to it.
A bigger job that likely won’t happen today but is very much on my list is taking Christmas down. You might remember, or you might not, but it was VERY hard for me to set Christmas up this year. So I’ve felt somewhat justified in leaving it up this long. Yet I’m carrying some deep anxiety for the month to come and something tells me if I don’t take Christmas down now, its staying up until March. So I’d better get to that.
Unrelated, Christmas cards. I am so determined to get them out. Is it too late? Would anyone still want one? I don’t know what to do 🙁 When I finally had them ready to go, it was ICE COLD and there was no possible way to actually deliver them to so many people in town. And then we had covid. Ugh. I’m so so disappointed.
Ok friends, wish me luck. Coffee is down the hatch, hair is up, and music is going! Its going to be a good day today 💜
