Back when I was working, I seemed to be so organized. Work all day, make a meal, do chores, take a walk, repeat again tomorrow. Back then, I couldn't wait for the day when I could retire and do my own thing all day.
Back when I was working, I found time? or created time? to do extra things, like sit in the sun and read for a while.
Back when I was raising kids, there seemed to be so much more time in my days. Logically I know there are the same 24 hours. But why does my time seem so much less than that??
Maybe I should go back to writing lists. Having a to do list, whether its written or just in your mind, seems to help get things done. I do better when I'm on a schedule, but retirement has put me into a non schedule mode, and that's not working for me. Add in helping mom and my nephew and when there's a day where no help is needed, I do nothing. Or very little.
Google says: "Predictable, repetitive routines are calming and help reduce anxiety. They'll also help you take control of your day and subsequently, your life. Start your day off right."
That's what I need. It would do me a world of good. I just need to start.
Maybe tomorrow.
