It is…Sunday, July 21, Two-Thousand and Twenty-More. Time...???

Theme – In It's Time

 Everything in it's time. It happens as it needs to. Not a moment sooner and never too late. Such as the weed trimmer mentioned below. Or the time I have had this week. To everything there was a season. Time to rest and time to work and time to focus and time to pick up Sunshine. If it is true for this week then it shall be true in future weeks. In It's Time.

Lesson – Just Keep Going

 No matter what life throws at you - good or bad - Just Keep Going. It's not worth getting hung up on anything. Don't get stuck in one moment for too long. Just Keep Going.

Observation – It's the Little Things

 I had a week filled with success and disappointment. But, in the end, I noticed it was the little things that seemed to make the biggest difference. My favorite example of this is the weed trimmer. I have not had one all season and things are now getting very out of control all over. Then, one day, just when I had enough of looking at it - I found an electric one on the side of the road. I brought it home. I plugged it in. It runs. I need to load some string and then I'm good to try it out. Knowing I have a trimmer now and can clean things up was such a relief of stress for me. It made such a difference in the overall flow of the rest of my week.

The Post

 It is late. Much later than it should be for me to start writing. But, with the week I've been having, I figured fuck it.

I really wasn't sure how this week would turn out. It was touch and go there for a while. Financially, I had so much on my plate this week. I had to get rent for certain this week. I had child support and I needed the remainder of the insurance money. I also had a higher grocery budget this week.

The days weren't quite going the way I wanted them to. Still, with the money I had carried over from last week, I was able to Just Keep Going. I did what I needed to In It's Time.

Somehow, I got through the week. All those bills were covered. I even managed an extra $30 to carry over. That may not sound like much but that is more than I've carried over so far. Even better - it's not claimed money. I didn't earn it for any particular bill or another. I'm going to do my best to maintain that extra $30 all week and see if maybe I can add to it.

I have a challenging week ahead. The finances aren't terrible but it could be interesting.

This is also the week I am attempting to take a day off. I had originally planned it for tomorrow but I need to do a Reiki session with Cuddlebug and I have been putting it off until we can both have the day off. [Or be in no rush.] She is off on Tuesday.

I've been keeping my lists lately. I get into this routine and then lose it. But, I am still managing my To-Do list from The Grounding. It has shifted. As it should. Things come and things go. But I keep at it. Chipping away at the responsibilities of life.

I am also keeping a running grocery list. Again, I've tried this often and it only lasts so long. Then I usually revert to keeping it in my head.

Moving forward I have a big week.

I'm taking the day off.

I need to make time to get some of the yard stuff done.

I need to make time to get other stuff done. [I need to do a lil salt maintenance on the softener.]

I have another larger grocery list this week as well as a list of other things I need to take care of - DL renewal, order checks, a lil of this and a lil of that.

Overall, I feel good. I feel positive and upbeat. I feel ready to face each day.
