Choosing My Focus

A blog from three years ago that I needed to read again today. My early Saturday wake-up from Aaron today wasn’t because of seizures but because he drank too much water before bed last night, I guess. And I needed to remind myself to be thankful instead of frustrated as I carted his bedding downstairs on a morning when sleeping in was far preferred!

He Said What?!

I had my day all planned today, my to-do list made, and the order of that list firmly in my head. Take Aaron to Paradigm, then the post office, return an item to Gordman’s, stop at the Vintage store to ask about milk paint, run quickly into Dillon’s, probably get gas, home for a quick lunch and indoor straightening, and then outside into this upcoming warm afternoon where I was looking forward to some leaf raking out of our drainage ditches and picking up branches and maybe pine cones and cleaning off the front porch and vacuuming out the van……whew!…..and pick up Aaron and home to make supper and then Wheel of Fortune and ironing and then bedtime before I know it.

There.

What I wanted to get done today is based on what I need to get done tomorrow, and the next day, and the next.
