I got up early this morning to attack the never ending laundry and move baby stuff out of our room.

An hour after I’m in the groove, I hear something suspicious outside.

It’s Man Man... He tipped the basket of soil over. Which I needed to uproot the plants in it anyway.
I am one of those ppl who is extremely on one end or extremely on the other end. I couldn’t just clean this up then go back to laundry. I cleaned the entire yard, cut the grass, and put out fire pit together. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤣" title="Lachend auf dem Boden rollen" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend auf dem Boden rollen">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤣" title="Lachend auf dem Boden rollen" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend auf dem Boden rollen"> The ENERGY!
We’ve had this fire pit since December I think. A parent of my student bought it after I mentioned wanting one. She’s so amazing!

Gotta grab some fire wood from my dad now.
As I’m dragging the lawnmower around, I stopped to look in our birdhouse. Look at these baby baby birds!

I’m not your mama or your daddy. They said they’ll be back. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤣" title="Lachend auf dem Boden rollen" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend auf dem Boden rollen">

The entire time I am doing all of this, I’m thinking about why a few situations have provoked negative emotions in me.

When is the last time you did that?

I did it a few days ago but that inner work is an ongoing process.

I want to be healed.

I think I release or think more
when I’m outside anyway so that worked for me today.

I’m all done. I say goodbye to Man Man and off to take a shower.
Took a cold shower & said more affirmations.

Look at my child’s face. I’m snapping away taking pics and she sneezed. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤢" title="Angewidertes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Angewidertes Gesicht"> why do babies always have to wipe it in after they sneeze??!
If you’re still reading this thread, this is probably the most important part.

Lately I have decided act on what I want in life, NOW.

I want my family to be completely farm to table one day. I also love cooking for myself.

So what did I do? I made biscuits from scratch.
Then I took a picture of my plate in front of my container garden.

Why?

Because it’s helping me visualize the life I want to live!

Using what I have now while getting ready to live in an abundance of blessings.
I even contacted a cleaning service to learn more abt rates. I do not wish to do laundry all my life or clean up behind my kids.

I wish to put energy into the parts of my life that need me the most.

Showing up for myself is one.

Thanks for reading!
