True change comes from fixing your mindset and habits. Open your mind, and picture a place where you could be happy. Doing something that makes you happy. Get that locked in your brain And start working towards it.

Good morning
Focusing on self care every hour worked well yesterday. We had company stop by for a couple of hours last night so I missed doing the hourly self care between 5pm to 8pm. I'm going to try pausing & focusing for a few minutes on taking care of myself each hour today. Each hour is a fresh start. I
I am worth the effort to take care of myself hourly CI

Good morning, LadyM.
Nancy, I was happy for your area yesterday, too, to think that much help was heading through for firefighting.
I have some things underway in the kitchen, dishwasher running, making hard-boiled eggs.
About time for the service I'd planned to watch today.

I was up on time just before 5 today.
Did another condensing of 2 planners so glad for that progress and got the desk, & work space aka table in the office cleared.
And Dining table was free but now has my daily planner stack on it to do next.
I learned the 20th of Sept. is the last Sun. of the current pastor where I was previously going.
I am excited about the upcoming changes there this fall.
I got out my Faith Planner and did a reset on the pages of it.
I have a diff. one ready to use as well from my efforts last week.
I wrote out like two day's worth of pages in a review of the year and stuff going on in my morning pages was blown away
at how much I had to write! Some going forward ideas too.
I have the book case tolerable and it's feeling like a fresh start with the above mentioned journals I did a reset on yea!
Also a blank lined journal with sea shells on it for the summer notes info and ideas with learning in it.
Had some bfast made myself an Italian soda we just called em soda's learned how to do em on my 1st job in high school.
Yum.
Spoke to the neighbors on my walk.
Checked my toms. I watered last evening I got em tied up too.
Time for my meds. X
Then water roses on the prop. line. maybe tonite...
Saw that baby deer again at a distance, heard a couple of doves, and a humming bird this morning.
Smoke is better today yea! Feeling better and my head is good today glad for that.

Start fresh! I love, it LadyM!
I am going to try not to go down the rabbit hole of the cemetery records today. I've been appalled with our cemetery record spreadsheet which came from the written records at the cemetery. I compiled the spreadsheet over twenty years ago, but it's been in the hands of the office admin lady and the long-time chair of the cemetery and neither of them had substantial Excel skills. It was set up so it could be sorted by plot, name, plot owner, etc. I'm finding burials on Find-a-Grave with photos of grave stones that were never entered in the excel spreadsheet and burials in our records that don't have a FG entry. Not that FG is the "official" place but if there's a gravestone it's pretty obvious that the burial is there. The spreadsheet was used as the basis for the entries on the GIS map that is online, that isn't granular enough to show where in the plot the burial is. And then there's the physical rolled up map, first used in 1940 that purports to show the location of every grave. It's been rolled up (wrinkles) and "corrected" over and over again so it's difficult to read. Anyway, I get possessed and just keep going and going.
Last night dh and I watched a movie "The Six Triple Eight" about a WWII black women's unit that sorted and cured the mail backlog in Europe. Good morning, kind of uplifting but then I stayed up too late, and as a result slept in this a.m. I should have set and alarm.
Anyway. I've walked the dog and done some clean up, started laundry to hang dry. And I'm finally eating my brunch.

DH is not walking steady, has nausea, and neck pain. Other than that he says he feels great.

I'm monitoring him more than normal.
DD15 is busy assembling and organizing her school things. She loves being organized when it suits her.
Although, sometimes she is okay with having an extremely messy area. She asked if I had any binder dividers. HA! I'm the office supply queen. I pulled out 3 plastic tubs filled with different styles, colors, material, types of dividers. Someday i will declutter these supplies, but while we are doing school they are coming in handy and being used.
I have tomorrow items selected to declutter. I want to declutter them today but am making myself wait. I am eagerly anticipating decluttering. I find this so strange.
I cooked 3 lbs of chicken and packaged into individual portions. There are some other ingredients laid out to cook next, but I needed a break..
