My horoscope today says that I'm going to be out of sorts and cranky all day, and as well, will be prone to making bad decisions. I thought that described yesterday pretty well. Could the horoscope be a day behind?
Yes, yesterday certainly was a trial for everyone involved, and there's only two of us living here. I felt frantically busy all day, but when I analysed what exactly it was I was doing, the day was about about 2/3 work and 1/3 rest. This lead to all sorts of self examination trying to figure out where I could find time for play. I even discussed it with Gail, but it appears that she isn't even finding time for rest, so her opinion wasn't much help. She and I speak every day, but have only seen each other once since March 14, when she came to pick up the extra Hosta we had.
So I need to rest less and play more. Not a pleasant alternative either, By the early evening, I was so upset with myself, I took about 45 minutes, and went downstairs and cut out shapes from the compressed foam, and now have eight foam shapes to make prints from. I think the whole sh---ty day was the result of me procrastinating over cutting that foam. It was so expensive, and I know that I can probably never replace it, and I just didn't want to actually cut it into pieces. But now, I have all of those pieces to make stamped designs out of--when I can find the time. Just doing that one little thing has lead to so may ideas and creative thoughts. Brings to mind that slogan that I mentioned in the past--"Just Do It!".
Now I'm quite looking forward to today, even if it is laundry day, and a busy one. I'll have to look out for those bad decisions though.
