Do as You Purpose

The Second Day

Mar 07

Monday

It’s 5:33 AM and I just rolled out of bed, bleary-eyed. I love that it’s quiet and dark, and I can write without distraction. I do miss my nice warm bed, however. DH just woke up and made coffee. God bless him!

Promises

• Get up by 6:30 AM
• Drive DH to work
• Go to gym
• Pick DH up from work
• Attend church committee meeting

Actions

• It’s 7:12 AM, and I have eaten, medicated, caffeinated, pooped and am wearing my swimsuit under my sweats. Ready to leave. Yea!
• Got DH to work a whole hour earlier than usual, which means he gets to leave at 5:00 instead of 6:00 tonight
• It snowed just enough to make the roads icky
• Walked into gym at 8:00 on the dot. A lane was open, and I got into the pool right away. The “workout before work” crowd was just starting to thin out. It felt really good to sink into the water and feel it buoy me. I spent the next 20 minutes stretching, walking, jogging and swimming 300 meters. It’s a far cry from the mile I had to  worked up to, but it’s a start.
• Showered, brushed teeth, shaved legs and styled hair.
• Got home and hung up all the wet stuff to dry.
• Let the dogs out to pee and poop.
• Wrote in my journal a bit.
• Researched info for tonight’s committee meeting.
• Just had a wonderful chef salad and kettle chips for lunch.
• Feeling sleepy.
• I gave myself permission to focus on gym, driving and church committee, to the exclusion of all else, just for today. But I’m feeling a little uncomfortable that I haven’t done anything for my clients today.
• Sent a follow up email to one of my clients, reminding him that I haven’t received his deliverables.

Signing Off

I have a nice satisfying feeling as the day closes. I did everything on my list and just returned home from the church meeting. It went very well. It’s 10:15 PM, but fortunately I do not have to drive tomorrow and can sleep in if I need to.

Tomorrow I need to focus on my clients and housework. Will create my list tomorrow. Yawn. Nightie-night. zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
