Rested and Energetic

 

Hi Everyone and Good Morning,

Just going to say that I knocked it out at work yesterday. I got a ton done and I am about to make my list for today. It goes so much better and faster when I stick to the plan I set for myself and go at a steady pace.

Last night, however, totally different story. I deflated. I didn't do shit. I didn't even shower, lol. And there wasn't time this morning to do so.

Suffice to say I am lotioned and sprayed up. My sissy would not be happy. I am drenched in a patchouli based scent. But patchouli hides everything. Not that I'm super stinky, I just wanted to make sure.

So I went to bed before nine last night. I ran some errands with my daughter and then we got home. I had picked up some edibles so I took one before we got home (we were only 2 minutes away from home so I wasn't driving all buzzed up).

As soon as we walked in the door, I took a Hydroxyzine and changed into jammies. Then I went to bed. I was one tired lil' ol' cookie.

I only slept just over 5 hours but it was good. I feel good. And I feel rested. I have energy. I did not do caffeine for the 2nd night in a row.

It helps, it does.

I got up at about 4:30 and I did the dishes. I made my bed, I put some of my makeup away, I made two trips to the garbage and I meditated. I cleaned the poop out of the cat boxes and I fed said cats. Doesn't sound like a lot I know but it felt good to get all that done. My daughter has a friend stopping over today to see the place and I can't have it messy, ya know?

Sooooo the plan for tonight is to pick up the other vanity and get everything in the apartment picked up and put away. It's doable because there really isn't that much.

I have a number of projects that need to be worked on so I'm going to make a list of those. Some of them will occur as I do other things...

The point is, I genuinely do want to become more organized. I'm having difficulty with my budget and that's because I don't have one so all of that kind of thing is going to be on my list for Saturday. I'm going to make a calendar too for all my bills and when they are due. 

That way, everything will be right there, accessible at any given time.

This is hard. Not gonna lie. 

Being irresponsible my entire life with money is coming home to roust. I'm not in a bad place but I will be if I don't slow down. I think of something we need and because I've become so accustomed to just ordering on Amazon and not going into a store, I probably pay more for things I need. And it feels as though there's always something I need. 

Life is going to amp up in a new way now that the move is slowing down. 

Willow's Whimsy here we come. I'm literally devoting Saturday to cleaning, budget, project lists and beginning the journey of this business I want to start.

I think that some of my friends feel that I've alienated them and that's not the case but the 3 hour phone calls is a thing of the past. I have set those boundaries and I am sticking to them. 

I love my people, I really, really love them. One messaged me a gorgeous message this morning and I was so grateful and I let her know I'd love to see her early Sunday evening if she's available.

We are going to "wing it" as she stated.

This part of my life...it's about me. I give of my time so often that the things I want get pushed back. 

I just can't do that anymore.

So yeah...there you have it.

I gotta go, I hope you all have a blessed day.

Love & Light,

Neecie
