Another rough one today... My morning routines have been a struggle because I haven't been getting up. As extreme as it might sound, it really is true for me, but if I make a single exception to my routine, I'm about 100 times more likely to lose the routine. I made an exception, and now … Continue reading 2023-12-18 — 😕

I'm here! 💚 Ups and downs. I spent the morning listening to the entire book of first Nephi and part of second Nephi. That was actually super effective for getting me grounded and calm and at peace. I'm grateful for that. Church was good, and I did pretty well after church. I don't remember very … Continue reading 2023-12-17 — Memory Lapse

Guess I'd better write something before I forget everything... So... The 16th (yesterday)... Hard day. Think I slept in and didn't have a good morning routine. I think I had a conversation with Cory for a while in the morning? Talking a lot about the stuff that's tough for me right now. Lots of many … Continue reading 2023-12-16 — One Week to Vacay

So I was doing really well when I wrote my journal entry yesterday, feeling the spirit and feeling peace and calm and everything. That was yesterday morning, writing about the previous day's experiences. I had slept in and only done family study with my mom, and then I spent however long writing my post that … Continue reading 2023-12-15 — I. Don’t. Work. In. The. Rain.

You know, sometimes it would be nice to be able to apply all of the principles that I learn all at once. 🙃 After one of the better morning routines that I've ever been able to accomplish since I've begun striving to follow this fabulous but very challenging morning routine, when I went out this … Continue reading 2023-12-14 — Curtain’s Up

I'm really grateful for people who face monumental fears and overcome them. This morning, I woke up and learned that a friend of mine who's been struggling to do something that she's felt like she should do but that was excruciatingly difficult...did it. I know that fear, though in different circumstances. I've never had to … Continue reading 2023-12-13 — Oh, What Courage!

Little bit late on my post from yesterday. Whoops! Yesterday I'm going to say that we're going to call it mini x day. It was a super effective day down by the deck, which is where I spent the entire day after morning routine stuff.At first, I worked on spreading the mulch around on the … Continue reading 2023-12-12 — Mini Excavator Day

Well, it's been quite the day today. First time I've had a good auto repair day in a good little while, at least that's what it feels like. I struggled getting to bed last night. I had taken an hour long nap during the day yesterday because I was exhausted, but it totally messed me … Continue reading 2023-12-11 — I Would If I Could

Let's just say that my career as a car mechanic is on life support. 🙃 I'm ready to hang it up today. They're just so many other things that I want to do, and time just marches on so quickly. I turn 42 in 2 weeks. And I'll be on a plane still with a … Continue reading 2023-12-10 — On Life Support

I can't remember... What did I do yesterday? It was Saturday... I remember spending a good amount of time down at the deck. But gosh, what did I do? Morning Gospel study, I think I slept in a little bit? But I woke up in time for family study, oh no! I think I got … Continue reading 2023-12-09 — Almost Done–With One Side
