October 5

goal: laundry again
order laundry machine with dh
planning day

10:15 more laundry done
time for exercise
12:20 more laundry done, more things chosen for garage sale. All the decisions that need making are stressing me out. So dd suggested a list of how my brain is thinking... writing down what is stressing me out (my visual thinking on paper) is helping me see I can break things down now even though my brain wants to go all over the place.

now for dailies 1:53 many dailies done... next vacuum first floor and stairs and swiffer
2:46 pm I am going to take a minute for me - most dailies done except for brushing animals which I may do on my animal day tomorrow
dailies actually took 1-1/2 hours am ones -

things I want/have to: replace caulk on front window

I have so many art supplies of dd that I really have to put aside for her

lots done!

october 6 Monday animal day
continue in basement -
5:51 I had to go back to sleep this morning as last night dd older and I had a disagreement that we worked out and all for the better (lots of growing for both of us - a good but hard thing) but it kept me awake much of the night. apologies from both, understanding for both, enlightenment - huge and how I and she can add to an issue without realizing the triggers they have for both of us. We both learned a lot on how we both see things - which at times may be so different. I am very very lucky that we can talk and try to make things better when we have a disagreement of how we see things. I fell asleep again at 10 am and woke at 1 pm.

spent the whole afternoon with dd older trying to go through my closet in basement. mice are there again (fall!) (we no longer let the cats in the basement because they go between the walls)

at 6:00 going out with d mom before she leaves again for Florida

Continuing to org. The creativity room yarn and supplies is going well.
Laundry card is up and working on BWP cards like dust etc.

[blessedw2]

I think the creative things are the hardest to organize - lots of decisions - you are handling that very well d nancy.

october 7 (I am supposed to have bible study this morning but dd older is going to help me continue in basement and today is look at anything that will go for the garage sale

weekly: powder room

up at 6 but didn't really get started until 7:24 (animals fed already)
11:22 am more tossed - went through preschool books and teaching stuff - most tossed - I can find most of it on pinterest etc.
12:03 tossed tons of misc. beads etc. from when the d kids were young teens
and went through my craft bin again... more gone... I also had planned on writing a book or a blog on children ideas for preschool activities and crafts - I should have done that when I was working with preschoolers and when at school - it takes organization and balance to do things like this but I tend to over goal and get buried in it.

1:17 got rid of another box of patterns, girl scout stuff and shells etc. memories are the important things... not the things from the memories
