I am trying to give balance to my home.

I am trying to do at least one thing on my daily, weekly, focus each day. I was trying to do all/be all or nothing and it doesn't work.
Monday: Is my bathroom day, laundry room day, white laundry, and dailies..decorate a bit of outside.: I only got dishes done (I didn't even empty dw) but I was out of the house from early am to 7:30 pm.

Tuesday: bible study.. again has to be put on hold. is supposed to be kitchen day, my laundry, grocery shopping - I have uncle all afternoon which is ok.. he has been very good- no games
goal today: do something in each room and focus (only one thing if I have to) don't over think! keep it simple.

Wednesday: d mil's cook/clean, visit young friend for 1/2 hour, water color class. usually dining room/front room day

Thursday: no elder driving in am. mom enjoyable .. usually family room day

friday: bedrooms upstairs and hallway, My d cousin is coming to town, lunch with dear friends for 2 hours - family meeting re: elder care

Saturday: maybe second garage sale/ out door work/car
Sunday: planning, purse/baritone will be in our area at 3 .. i have one ticket just for me. 8-)

as I am struggling with lack of focus and bouts of depression its time for me to use the basic weekly plan until I can get a grasp on a basic routine again.

cleaning the dailies is not the issue but I think I need a flexible focus for each day without being a perfectionist and then feeling down bc I fell short, in my mind.

what I know is ahead:

saturday play leave at 3 pm :D
Sunday: fathers day :D
foundation meeting Monday at 1 pm :D
wednesday french 3 pm cancelled take dh downtown :arrow:

additionally I would like to do the following:
-one nice day for dh and architecture tour
-go to beach walk for me :arrow:
-get new passport :arrow:
-order lodging at door county :arrow:
-talk to d bro re: a couple days at his place up north :D
-lawyer will - called and have an appointment :D

nothing happens for me with out a weekly plan

daily
1 hour paperwork
1 hour house dailies
1 hour outside work/play
1/2 hour to 1 hour learning or out of comfort zone challenge

round robin


future: dd youngers b day August 12
d mom meets with her old friends from years ago aug 13
door county september ?
brothers august 26
Sept 19 test I need to drive as she will be out

out of my comfort zone challenge I would like to try: goal/hope

*taking my d mom to her old neighbourhoods to see where she had lived (hoping that they are not bad neighbourhoods) :D well worth it. so happy we went

*buying a bathing suit for this big body and using it in my pool and then the gym this week (or instead of the gym go to the beach by myself and swim in Lake Michigan. Didn't find one yet :arrow:

*walk the dogs regularly in my neighbourhood when all the neighbours are out - walk with dh or others (don't know why - I can walk on my own but it makes me uncomfortable to walk with others) day 1 check Uncomfortable level 8 when done happy I did it. :D

*- I am supposed to go on a slow river raft trip (where you go into your own sit down raft) that is terrifying for me. especially not knowing the river and with all this rain will that be safe.
next year I will do it. :arrow:

living without tv or computer movies/youtube for one week is also on my list. only 1 day ;) its a beginning

August 6 to August 13 out of comfort zone challenge (to try for this week) what I really want to do this week

- sign up for a sailing lesson with dd younger without her knowledge (bring a picnic lunch) :D spoke to dd - hopefully next week :) :arrow:

-go to beach in bathing suit (top at least) - go swimming on my own, bring breakfast or lunch and book
this is a half good - I went to the beach myself but did not have bathing suit with me but I did get those toesies in the water :D :arrow:

- work on blog/scouting challenge idea to get other women in our area who of differing physical abilities, age to work together on learning (similar to scouts) and doing field trips according to their wants and abilities.

-dd younger wants to go on a helicopter ride for her birthday - I am considering going on it as well. can't go myself as I am too heavy and I can not afford another ticket ;)

-walk d dogs on a regular basis in neighbourhood

- call motor boat teacher again and find out when she has time again (no longer out of my comfort zone but was fun) :D wrote but waiting :D :arrow: Next monday

-walk at the wildlife centre on my own

go to gym daily (definitely out of my comfort zone) :D 8/7 mmmmm :( keep on swimming
