My usual MO is to detail the events of the day. That usually turns out pretty boring. So, maybe if I put a green hat on, this blog will become a little more inneresting. Maybe.
The thoughts I think tend to be about what I "should" be doing. I'm continually "shoulding" all over myself! I can't stop! Right now I'm thinking about something else I "should" be doing. And when I go to do that, I will prolly tell myself, "I 'should' be blogging!" It's a wonder I ever get anything done. I become so overwhelmed by the things I'm not doing, that I feel like I'm doing less.
But I try to always do at least one thing. Maybe it's tidy the kitchen. Play the guitar for more than 5 minutes. Make that long phone call I've been putting off. Do a project for the FSP. Go for a walk. Cook a delicious meal. Make love.
I'm learning patience with myself. It seems that everything I do now takes four times as long as it used to. What used to take 5 minutes, now takes 20. At first it was frustrating, but now I pretty much go with the flow. I don't want to rush my routine, and besides, I'm not going anywhere in a hurry, am I? Sure, I have things to do, but it's nice to be able to stop and smell the roses. I seem to have that luxury now.
So yeah, that's my dilemma. I "should" on myself half the time and the other half, lie back and enjoy l'eau de rose.
