Hurray for me!!!!! Day two I am up at 4:30 and off to business. I have stayed busier than yesterday so I am only on my third cup of coffee. I am however moving more slowly than I had hoped I would. While planning to spend 10 minutes per room today to begin the straightening and decluttering process, I ended up spending 20 minutes each in the livingroom and diningroom, I also had to spend a little more than the 5 minute wipedown that I had planned for there. The good thing is that all of those rooms look almost decent at the moment. I see a great deal more to do when I walk in the room but I'm sure that most other people wouldn't see the things I see.
I also have finished loading the dishwasher and started it running, put a load of clothes in to wash, which is now in the dryer with the 2nd load in the washer. Also, in the oven is a loaf of banana walnut bread for a treat today. I have NOT done well at getting food in the family in the early morning so the bananas were going bad and had to go somewhere fast. Banana bread it is!!!!
I have gathered 2 bags of trash so far today to head for the dumpster. I cannot figure out how to cut the trash among this group but I feel very responsible for filling an entire land fill from my home and business alone.
I still have another 10 minutes to spend in the kitchen which should cover unloading the dishwasher and putting the things I have used this morning in it. I plan to spend 10 minutes in the master bath and 10 more minutes in the master bedroom, as well.
Right now I had to sit down for a few minutes. While my knee down to my ankle is somewhat sore from my fall yesterday, as long as I stay on it oddly enough, it doesnt hurt that much. My shoulder and neck are a different story however. I have done a lot of laundry and folding in the last 3 days plus the things I have done over my head so they feel pretty tender at the moment and probably adding in the fall I am having to take moving my left arm very slowly.
I am going to use this time to listen to one of my Old Testament lessons for about 30 minutes then back at it till time to leave for work.
I am also spending time honestly asking myself why I am doing each of the things I am doing and what my motive is. I honestly believe that my motives are what I think they are but I am having to rethink somethings to make sure. This makes each task take longer at the moment as well.
My lecture series that I am watching are quite honestly for me. The natural healing one is for all of us because its my job to feed and nurse my family and I want to know as much as possible for future events in the world that could cause my to be the family doctor for sure. No one else needs to be as excited about this learning as I am because it is one of those behind the scenes things that goes un noticed. But the Old Testament class is strictly because I love learing more about the Bible.
End of transmission for the moment.
