Wow, time has slowly flown by for this ‘Goals Group Quarter!’ At times it seemed like a struggle to get things done and at other times easy peasy.
The exercise part has been the hardest but I’m glad I’m doing it. Even five minutes some days seemed too long, until I got going and 8 times out of 10 I went longer than the required goal time. So, yea!
Drinking the full 32 ounces a day may not seem like a lot for some, but for me it may have been too much. My Nephorologist cut me down to 22 ounces a day. So that surprisingly goes down really quick. I also have to pay attention to everything else I drink so I’m not putting too much on the kidneys. They are a bit irritable these days.
Next on my goals list for daily “to dos” was meditation. I found some GREAT meditations ranging in times from five-plus minutes to hours. When I’m cutting it close I’ll listen to one of the five-ish minute meditations and when I have time I will of course choose a longer one. One thing that the five minute meditations helps with is building up the ability to stay awake during the guided meditation. With the fact that I am a night owl I often fall asleep shortly after the start of the soothing voice or music. But by listening to the shorter versions and building up my time I am able to (not everyday but often) be present for the full meditation.
Since this will be the last week of this round of goals, I’m trying to figure out what I’d like to focus on for my blog posts. I could write about my books and the process of forming my characters, or what its like to be in your 60’s and starting to live your dreams. Yet struggling with things like procrastination, lack of self-confidence, or writer’s/artist’s block. I could also write about my health journey and how I’m striving to do better. This last bought of COVID (Sept.2023) affected me harder than I wanted to admit in several ways.
Although I don’t think I want to stick to one subject to write on. Maybe I’ll write about all of it and hope that you’ll join me on this whirlwind journey of life. Frankly, I love life ~ good, bad (not so much), and Amazing. This may sound silly but if there were Vampires, witches, or something that could make you immortal I would consider it. Well, as long as I wouldn’t have to hurt or kill anyone or anything. Fake blood all the way for me. LOL 😂.
On that funny and strange note I will say “Later”, and wish you a Happy Sunday and week ahead.
May Hugs, Love, Laughter, and Blessings to keep you company for the rest of your days.🌻
