You Got this

I get sidetracked just like everyone else. That is right, even forget to write on here. Life happens and get distracted. Time flies. Which of these 10 ideas should I write about and then can’t make a decision. Really! I’m regrouping today! One day at a time!

I went to the doctor the other day for my general check up. This doctor did not know me from anything. I did not choose her, my other doctor left. Obviously she hasn’t checked my labs. She looked at me and said I was going to die soon and I needed to get on statins for my cholesterol (numbers normal)and metformin for my diabetes (numbers pre-diabetic). This past year I reversed my diabetes. I stood up for myself and I told her that I have a team of people that help me. Either she joins me or I’ll find another doctor. I was glad that I stood up for myself. However, I was so floored, I came home an ate junk food. I do not do well with abusive behavior.

I do know I have to get back on my plan. I got off it for a bit with dealing with my usual stressful stuff. But I certainly did not deserve that. Knowing that what they call healing is about the bottom line, and having first hand experience is another. What happened with…I see you went up 2 points on your A1C, but your pre-diabetic still, that is good. How can I help you?

This is why I have mostly worked with alternative medicine for several years. I am not perfect and know that. As I look back. I see that I have taken 1 or 2 steps back, not 10. I’m progressing in the direction of my life goal. That is what counts. My time between me being off target and on, is less and less. When you can look at things like that, you are ahead of the game. That is where the control is. Planning, recording time in your schedule. You see proof.

I use the digital calendar, however, I also use a paper planner. I just need to write it down. That writing is my connection for it to sinking into my brain. For me that works. Everyone has a different way to keep themselves organized. Go to your inner voice. She knows the answer! Find yours. Just do it! As I share with you, I remind myself. Have a great day!

Clearing my space

I was told from my Astrology friends, that this full moon would be in Virgo and to use it to my advantage. Yes I’m a Virgo. I have spent most of this week. I have been in an decluttering. It was so cathartic to rip up all the paper. At the end of this week I am feeling so much more energized. It is amazing how much a difference it makes. Why fight it, if it brings some beneficial results. It is called life happens. It is moving past that what is stopping me, accepting it.

I have Attention Deficit. Approaching a project can be unapproachable. I’ll be frozen for days and months avoiding it totally choosing some fun stuff. Sometimes, I need someone to just sit with me. Not even do much. Just start me addressing the pile. I did have some one help me and what a blessing it was. Then they can walk away.

Last night after I cleared my closet and stuff all around my room. I also cleared my rocker so I can enjoy my book later that night. It was such a sense of peace in there without all the clutter. I so enjoyed my journaling. That is a sacred place for me. I haven’t been able to enjoy it. The clutter stifled my creativity. Once it cleared. I was writing pages! I invite you to join me.

Finding Balance out of Chaos

I decided to change my desk around, originally because the A/C vent was freezing me out!  My dear partner helped me move things around. I solved that situation. But what I also did was make room for my art supply caddy!  There is also plenty of room to move my keyboard out of the way and take a sketch pad out.

I then turn my chair around and I’m at my design table. I’m a happy camper today! I find that as i reorganize my office, I’m finding the energy open up to create easier.

The past year, I have been having visions of drawing something. I don’t have the tools or the know-how to do what I saw.  However, I have ordered all the types of pens and brushes I need.    I’m going to go to learn something this week.  The internet has unlimited resources to choose from. I’m ready to play!
