YOU CAN'T DO IT ALL WEDNESDAY - ARE YOU EXPECTATIONS ON over-goal:

Are you expecting way way too much of yourself in a day, in a week etc?

BREATH.

STOP. YOU CAN'T DO EVERYTHING. YOU CAN'T BE EVERYTHING TO EVERYBODY. YOU CAN JUST DO THE BEST YOU CAN IN THE MOMENT YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN. it's okay.

today... just for today:

Accept that YOU CAN'T DO IT ALL AND IT'S OKAY!

- Keep to the PIE method = Progress is Enough
-be kind to you
-Don't over goal (keep your expectations realistic)
-and last but not least (if you feel overwhelmed) do the next right thing. You will know.
-
Give yourself a pat on the back today that you are doing "OK"!!!

I just saw this - it's perfect (it says school but it is really about, not, letting the squirrel in you take over and all is okay. I had typed the post above and then watched this video from Kimmy of She's in her apron.
Kimmy of She's in her Apron has an amazing inspirational video on what I have been thinking today. She says it so much better than I.

Just met dh down at the laundry room. I could see from here that there were 2 carts down there & I had figured to get the laundry out of the washers at least so others could use them. Figured dh still had the quarters. However, when I got down there, one of the carts was ours. He was just putting the load of colored in the dryer. He had been changing a tire on our golf cart. Somewhere around the Pond(s) we had picked up a huge screw. But it was too close to the outer wall so he had to put a new tire on. $$$ -usually but he happened to have some that people have given him that he had in storage.

Knew our dneighbor was down doing laundry. Hoping it clears up some today so I can go next door to see her from a distance. She's suddenly come down with a horrific sore throat & cold. They're flying back to FL tomorrow and I doubt highly they'll be back next year. Their camper, deck, shed & golf cart are all for sale. Their dd lives nearby so she will continue to show it the rest of the summer. Although I'm wondering if they've sold it as they've taken down their For Sale sign.

Have to go back in 45 minutes to retrieve our laundry so need to get busy here & get something done.

I got over my 10k steps yesterday & according to my F it bit I was over the 2,000 calories burned for the first time. Thinking my increased heart rate is also raising my metabolism. For sure I know I'm not as tired as I had been. My energy level has definitely increased. Who knew? That will also help my BS stay low. In fact it was only 65 this morning after having had pasta for dinner last night. DDIL made a big pot & they brought it here for dinner. Nice! DGS7 was real proud of himself since he'd picked peppers & onions to go in the sauce yesterday morning.

Hi!

I stayed awake reading until after midnight and I was wide awake just after 5 and I've been up ever since. No time for a nap today because I have an appointment with our accountant.

We are having the leftover chicken from last night. Part of me wants to remove all of the skin to bring down the carbs for dh, but another part of me knows he is an adult and can do it himself if he wants to. I have been reading a lot of stuff on FB and Google this morning.
