OMG 10.5 hrs of painting. I was dog tired when I finished at 8:30 pm and showered watched a show and crashed. That ME TIME I talked about yesterday morning really did not happen. But I did finish listening to the first book of the Game of THrones as I painted yesterday. So Was entertained while I worked. Helps me focus too.

This morning I feel butt-dragging tired and stiff sore joints from all the standing/walking/ladder-climbing/painting with brush or roller.... Zapped is how I still feel. Swollen in the shoulders/hands/elbows. And my weight was up though I was on plan. So, I think that is all my muscles holding fluids. YUCK!

I have started with stretching and next is cleaning up the mess from last night I soaked the brushes and such but now I need to clean out the room so I can strip the floor.

Another long day ahead. But I really want to see the end of the road. The walls are gorgeous in the morning light. I love the color. But the camera is still at the warehouse - hubby still using it.

I am off to get motivated.

Have a great day all!

*Never lose the ability to find beauty in ordinary things.*

My fortune cookie advice for the day. No I did not eat the cookie. LOL

Being buried for so long in this renovation this little quote has added continued impact from the thoughts I was already having on needed ME time. Not only do I need to slow down to center myself and remember there are things besides fixing up the house that are important, or taking care of everyone else but I have forgotten to notice simple things like the sun, the sky and the stars that shine in the night. Too look up and out and beyond the walls that bind me to the work. To enjoy these small pleasures is as much akin to me time as it is to remember that life is not a mission, without these little pleasures we would stagnate and have trouble plodding one foot in front of the other.

So remember, as you work, and plan and frustrate in this life that it is up to you to take the time to look beyond the bindings, blinders and walls in life be they real or imagined no matter their source.

Take time to notice something extraordinary in your ordinary day.

*hugs*

Kids off to school hoping they both have a great day.

I was up before the alarm. bonus. Yay! Meaning I got a few things done before the kiddos were under foot. How many of you make a full breakfast for your kids before they are out the door? I mean cooked not cold cereal. I do it a couple days a week max. But lately they think it is an everyday affair and I am not sure how I feel about it. Partly I think it is because I can fix them breakfast that is not cold cereal since this summer that is what there was. LOL

For me it is usually an atkins shake or bulletproof coffee and I am off and going til noon.

Anyway, I am off to painting that darn ceiling an a few and thought I would finally sit down and put today's thoughts to my journal.


GOALS:

- walk
- paint ceiling (2 coats)
- Paint trim (2 coats)
- plan dinner
- cook dinner
- me time ( i think this needs a nearly daily appearance on the goal list, sanity lies within doing so.)

Late posting today.... Been too much of this lately from my perspective of expectations I try to have for myself. But sometimes you have to accept it is what it is. But not everything.

So day started out with the freaking alarm... I am almost always up before because I hate hearing the darn thing. :P Then I got the kids going, easy. and we were off for Augusta and shopping at Sam's Club and Home Depot as if these places needed more of my hard earned money. Not but we were out of things and they have the best prices on SOME things. Some business some for family so we stock up and buy in bulk when we do go. Not 10 ft in the door and my phone goes off - the school... I am groaning before I answer. But not horrible. DD needed a change of clothing still getting used to her cycle. Hit the next store 40 minutes later phone rings again now it is the other school - which is when my Oh dear god alarm starts blaring. But it is DS and he is not happy with the lunch menu at school his choice not to pack and wants me to deliver him a packed lunch. So we were not even at the 2 hours gone mark and I had heard from both kids when they were told beforehand that we would not be at their beck and call because Augusta is about an hour away. SMH. Explained this again during each call. Both could muddle through. I knew they could but when I got home and we had unloaded I quickly pack up the needed lunch and clothing and sent them packing with DH to save the day. :P 2 hours later I am finally done separating and freezing the meat we bought and putting away everything else. I swear this happens every time we make these trips.

Now I am off to finish the priming and start painting the ceiling. Maybe I can get that much done today before I lose the light. (no light in that room yet and it is already getting darker out sooner.)
