Today I did more than just occupy my space. I feel more grounded and less fragile. I cleaned out the bathroom fan and put it back together, got the carpet out of the kitchen, realized that what I thought was laminate floor under it is actually vinyl that will not come apart and go back together, shopped for some doors, which I didn't get and some shelves that I did.
Jeff and Terry came over and we have a plan to get the plumbing under way. Tomorrow I empty the closet where the shower will sit and knock down the wall. I expect that will take me all day, but I'm hoping to buy a shower too if I have time and energy. The chaos continues, but if I just focus on what the plan is for the day, I don't feel quite so overwhelmed.
I'm also taking a little time to read now that I found the ebook I bought! I'm not sure why but it only sent to my old tablet...
My plan tomorrow includes this; "Occupy yourself in beholding and bewailing your own imperfections rather than contemplating the imperfections of others." Saint Ignatius
Good post!
ReplyDeleteAnd the thought behind that quote is quite nice, but I think you're already a little too quick to "bewail your own imperfections". Be good to yourself Elly.
