Front Burner

I have had to prioritize lately, gotta hate that! Slow boil and simmer are not working for me, time to pull everything in front. Dotting my I’s and crossing my T’s, starting things the night before again. Getting to bed at a better time, prepping everything. Lackadaisical doesn’t work during the school year. I start to put myself at the back again, getting to me later. Everyone gets a lunch, and I leave the house without one. My checklist for myself is coffee and phone. Should bring a wardrobe, because the weather is so wonky and the season is so unpredictable. Leave in the rain come home during a scorcher. Tired by Monday and waiting on the weekend.

My future brain has it all figured out now, so just brushing up details. Finding the fails and the go time is getting there. I thrive under pressure, probably why I procrastinate. At least I know what I want and I am no longer afraid to ask for what I need. The waiting for peace is rewarding eventually. Hump day has passed and Friday is on the next horizon. That works, little break and fourth gear again. I don’t hate it, makes me tired? Of course!

My daughter sent me a pic of the geese, and my other daughter sent me a picture of a young buck. I am craving apples, baking, soup and sweaters! Shut down the pool, dug out warm socks, stocked up on Kleenex, opening windows at night, I love the air a little crisp. Wine glass is ready for Friday evening and I have a book picked out. May get a little use of my outdoor space with that book and a blanket, might even nap. Enjoy any time you can get for you!!
