Get Out!!

It’s cold, foggy, and dreary today. This is the perfect time to NOT sit in front of the TV/fireplace/computer etc. Take the opportunity to get off your butt and go outside. Bundle up if you need to do that. I will be in my warm hat, zip up the front Lands End padded coat, and warm pants. We are going stick hiking on the Cushwa Trail next to the C&O Canal!

PS-My warm hat is an “Agnes” hat from Despicable Me and stick hiking means we take our hiking sticks a la Bilbo Baggins.

Close Your Eyes

Start 2021 with something lovely. Close your eyes and picture a beautiful scene. Think of anything that has made you sigh and think “Oh, how absolutely beautiful.” Breathe deeply and imagine yourself in your scene. Do this for 30 seconds. Feel better? Do this on a regular basis and, trust me, you will stay sane, lower your blood pressure, and enjoy your own company much more!

Plan Ahead

A friend of mine gave me a daily journal with space to write your own entry, space to write your thoughts, and a new first for me, space to write your plan for the day and your plan for tomorrow. I really liked this. So often we fail to really “plan” our day. What are the goals, how much time do we have to just sit if we still want to achieve, can we sit and read and still make it to the grocery store, do we have work goals, and on and on. As they say on Sesame Street: “What’s The Plan, Stan?” Try it-in the morning, just quickly jot down what you would like to do in your day and at the end of the day, make a note of how well you did then make a short plan for the next day. Don’t base it on your failure on the day before, but base it on your successes.

Tee Shirt Fun

Boy, do I stand corrected. A reader of the Tee Shirt Fun section let me know on no uncertain terms that “Moses downloaded Tablets From The Cloud” He also said that on the black Tee were pictures of the traditional big tablets.

I missed that one. thanks so much for sharing.
