Month: September 2025

be mindful of who you are…

3 Positives:
October ministering cards designed, printed, cut and assembled – and early enough to focus on some other projects on my list
Made progress on another project and updated calendars and planner for the next couple of months
All but one load of laundry done – the rest folded and put away

My Journey Notes:
Snafu with the migraine meds resolved yesterday and it is ready for pick up. YIPPEE and another scrip written and in the file for next month. Tight window today due to scheduling but hubby should be able to pick it up after lunch. Pharmacy hours aren’t working with our schedule at the moment.

self-care

3 Positives:
not all “experiments” fail
time in the studio was well spent
good food

My Journey Notes:
Another round of issues with the migraine med. Hmmm. Spent time on the phone with the clinic but not sure that got us anywhere since my dr’s office was closed for the day and no one on call to leave a message with. Same problem as before with the insurance not approving the scrip as written — UGH! Calling the pharmacy this morning to see what the “damages” are and make sure we can get it picked up this evening, as there’s a change in the weather moving in and the barometer is doing it’s thing — the med does take the edge off a bit on the barometer migraines. Tylenol isn’t cutting it! I have one pill left!

every day has some good in it…

3 Positives:
2nd part of a 3 part project is completed… the lights work!
design for October ministering cards has been chosen
weather is delightful!

My Journal Notes:
I have several things on the to-do list today that absolutely have to be tackled – including making a couple of phone calls which are not my favorite thing to do.

Always good to remember…

3 Positives:
to do list for Monday almost completed (I ran out of steam)
Finished part one of a three part project
Looked at some new software for photo editing. I think it will work for what I need.

My Journey Notes:
So far, so good for the most part. As long as I have a list, things get done and mostly on time. I am finding that my energy levels drop significantly mid-morning – looking to up my protein intake at breakfast and see if that helps level things out a bit and maybe avoid taking that nap before noon. 😉

hmmmm

3 Positives:
Service feels good
Family is really good
a little play time helps too

My Journey Notes:
Routine. Routine. Routine. If that is out of whack most of the rest of the day is out of whack. We’re going to have to make sure that the first of the morning stuff is out of the way before diving into other stuff – because the things on the to do list for the day may not get done in a timely manner if there’s a deadline looming. Ran into that this past week a bit. Hoping to do a little better this week.
