3 Positives:

3 Positives:
made some “ok” English muffins with the sourdough discard – I think next time, we do the full version with actively fed discard or sourdough start
dr appointment went well
another night of good sleep

My Journey Notes:
Reminded to keep up the walking — and dr was happy that most of the sleep issues have been resolved with recent changes in routine and meds. Stress levels have gone down a lot since my last visit. We did talk about a few other things I’ve had some concerns about. He did order some other bloodwork so we’ll see what those results are — should have them today.

3 Positives:
gratitude for having all of our basic needs met day to day
a good book to read
beautiful fall weather and seeing the “colors” begin their performance on the mountain side

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. 😉

3 Positives:
lots of sunshine
reflection time
a little creative time

3 Positives:
all the bottles of tomatoes sealed!
ministering cards assembled and ready for personalization
grateful that the peaches aren’t ready to pick today as I’ve still got a few tomatoes to make into salsa today!

My Journey Notes:
I think we may have hit on the right dosage for the thyroid med. Not having the previous issues with side effects – so hopefully, that will help keep things stabilized for the time being. And as long as I have a list, I do pretty good overall. On the days I don’t keep to the routine, I tend to lose track of things more… so here’s to another daily list to check off!

3 Positives:
quiet moments
successful completion of a project
worked on a new design

3 Positives:
Did a little shopping
Played with paper for a couple of hours yesterday
The pico de gallo is gone again…. more to come of that. It’s definitely been a hit this year.

My Journey Notes:
Not sure what’s up with the insomnia… but I thought we’d turned the corner on that one Saturday, but not so. Spent several hours awake Sunday night and again last night. Fitbit stats are not so good. But at least Sunday was double the time for last night. I really need to find something that will support a good night’s sleep — I know on the days that I haven’t gotten enough sleep, my memory and ability to focus and function are less than desired and I really need the focus for the next few days as I work on a project that requires my full attention to the details.

3 Positives:
Finished reading a book
Had a nice visit with a friend
Sleeping a little better overall
