#Microblog Mondays: Just Monday

...But a good Monday!



Today I had one of those days when I feel like I have my act together. I can enjoy life; I can get things done. And the armload of wiggly baby makes it just more awesome.

I decided I will write up today as a Day in the Life. The last one I wrote was when AJ was four months old and I think it's time for another! so hopefully that will be posted later in the week. Plus when I know I will be sharing what I do I seem to do things faster and better because I feel accountable somehow.

The to-do list from last week went pretty well. I got to most things, just not cleaning up the yard (a task that I have been avoiding for a while).

I am getting together with a wonderful friend on Wednesday. She is an IFfer too, but a different generation: in her 60s now. She has had a very challenging life in a lot of ways: loss of loved ones, health issues, and she was never able to have children (she did foster/adopt but that was complicated, too.) But through it all she just keeps living and trying new things, including starting a business in the last few years. I find people like that so inspiring.

Have a new list for this week and have rubbed a few things off it already - a good way to start the week! (But still not the outside cleanup. Tomorrow might be a good day for that!)

  1. It is so nice to feel like you have your act together, like everything is fitting into all the right spaces and stuff is just getting done. I love an almost-fully executed to-do list! Have a great time with your friend, she sounds like an amazing person.

  3. I don't have a wiggly armload and struggle to feel like I have my act together! Hope you have a great visit with your friend. Inspiring people are so wonderful to have around.

    1. Ha, I often struggle to feel like I have my act together....so I want to note when it does happen! I think the wiggly helps in a way because with her around I focus on essential more easily.
