Good morning, fellow sojourners in the Lord! I stayed within my calorie/fat gram limits, completed a 20-25 minute power walk and got several of my written "to-do" list items completed yesterday! So far, so good. I could have accomplished more, but what I did do makes me happy because, when a big change is underway, PROGRESS is PROGRESS, praise God!
I am happy to report that I had sinus issues yesterday. That sounds weird, but yes, I am glad my first day working hand-in-hand with the Lord on time management issues involved a challenge. Motivation is elusive in my world. I love it when I have to rely on the Lord or nothing will happen. Love it. The end result is that I get to tell you all that He came through!
I also struggled mightily with boredom. In between dishes, laundry, sweeping, cleaning toilets and vacuuming, I would fall to the bed or couch in a fit of utterly miserable dullness. Things other people do without thinking (housework) throw me into a dramatic fit of boredom-induced depression. I finished four pages of my Yosemite scrapbook. I did a short devotional with my family at dinner. I made something happen while wading through an ennui so thick it felt, emotionally at least, like quicksand.
I will never be perfect, but I will be SET FREE from low productivity. I hate to disappoint some of you, however. I will NOT be filling my time with religious busy work. Don't call me if you think of some. I'd rather put on some praise music and spend time with Jesus.
