It is…Sunday, August 11, Two-Thousand and Twenty-More. Time...Re-Birthing

Theme – The Perfection

 Life is never really perfect, is it? Or...is it? My life is always so turned around, flip-flopped, topsy turvy, helter skelter. It doesn't seem to matter how I approach things, I am always caught in a whirlwind, a flood, a frenzy. But, when I take a moment to catch my breath, I realize - despite the chaos, everything is kind of perfect in its own way. My days worl out perfectly. My finances always work out or turn around. When I take time to stop and look around I notice [again] how perfect my home is. In the hustle and bustle of it all it is easy to lose sight of The Perfection that is our lives.

Lesson – Get Out of G-d's Way

 It's so very easy for us to get caught up in our own Goals, our own missions and plans and projects. We know what we want and we know how we wanna do it, go about getting it, whatever the case may be. We forget that Spirit has plans and missions and Goals for us as well. More often than not the overall Goals line up - Spirit's and ours. But the plans and the schemes and the side missions can be vastly different. So we get focused on our own thoughts of how it all goes. I think this can trip us up. For instance, my Goal lately is just to keep Nu Geistopia going - not just financially but all of the projects and cleaning and such. Try as I might, I have only barely managed this. I need to hit a new level and I just don't seem to be able to get there. I thought if I worked hard and devoted my time and energy that things would balance out. They haven't really. Ever since The Grounding, I have been more flexible in just Following the Flow of each day and every week. I am [trying to] allow Spirit to put me where and when I need to be. It's been working mostly. Certainly no worse than what I was doing. I've been managing financially. Not quite where I want to be, but enough to not panic. However, things are also getting done - projects and cleaning and organizing and so on. Little by little. When nothing is working...stop trying. Let it happen and unfold. Get Out of G-d's Way.

Observation – I Gotta be Me

 I don't know how else to say this one. I just have to be true to what I know of myself. [I really don't know who I am.] But then...maybe that is who I am. But there are things that I do know of myself. I just have to be true to these things. Like it or lump it for anyone [and really everyone] else.

The Post

 Right this Moment it is Wednesday. I had myself an off kind of day and now find myself sitting here with both time and motivation to write. If i don't get back to writing for Sunday at least I'll have this.

Sunday is my Re-Birthday. I was hoping to take Monday off to celebrate with The Princesses, but I am not sure how that is going to play out. [It's not looking good at the moment.] All I can really do is run with it. I know that, no matter what, I will at least come close. It's just a matter of how close and just what I can do to adjust.

The week has been off to a random start.

Monday was slow. Mondays usually are. Anymore, I tend to work from home on a Monday - meaning that I use it as my goto spot between deliveries. So, I've started thinking of Mondays as days off that I can make some money. This particular Monday I made about half of what I needed for my daily Goal. This has been pretty typical for a Monday and is the perfect example of what I've been saying. I made about the same working from home and doing things around The Homestead as I have on days when I went out and just sat waiting for orders.

I did get some stuff done on Monday. For example, I had to do some maintenance and upkeep on the vacuum cleaner. It's all good now. I also did my grocery shopping on Monday. Or at least, the major portion of it. This did have me calling the day early so that I could get to both stores. But that's ok. The cupboards are stocked once more. [And so is the freezer.] I think it was Monday that I also got the lawn mowed. I wanted to get it done before it rained for days.

When I did the lawn I also trimmed out the last major flowerbed. I haven't had time to pull at all the weeds. So, I just went at it with the trimmer and pulled what I had to. I just needed it to look better than it did.

Tuesday was a little better financially. The day flowed easily and I felt accomplished at the end of it.

Today was...I don't know what.

I got a late start. This was because it is time to renew my driver's license. I got the form yesterday and I wanted to get the new picture card as soon as possible. It expires in 4 days. So, I neede to get an updated one in to all of the driving apps. So I made it a priority.

Then the rest of breakfast was rather slow. I came home and rested up for a bit and was back out for lunch. Lunch was also very bleak. I came home with plans to go back out and maybe work the afternoon from home. This did not happen.

I just wasn't feeling it. My knees hurt. My body was feeling all twisted. I was feeling heavy. I decided to give in to all of that and just stay home and do stuff. I [may have] fixed the toilet. I got laundry done. I cleaned up the workshop and got things more functional for tasking.

I enjoyed myself and appreciated my life. I feel good with where things are right this moment. My financial plans for the week are not going to happen and I'm not sure how it will impact the following weeks. but there is also other money happening in the next few weeks.

I feel ready for tomorrow.
