Made it through hump day.

I realized today that we have about three weeks left before school starts. I am not a huge fan of transitions because I am such a routine person and transitions usually require a change of routine.

So the beginning of each school year is tough for me. I expect this one will be even tougher as uncertainty is rising again in California.

This is just to remind myself to take it day by day and that the last two years have been all about changing and pivoting. I can do this.

Yes to making it work.

From the moment I wake up on the weekends I find that the time starts tick tick ticking. Hours pass and my list of things I want to do grow and grow.

I read two books today. It was lovely and relaxing. I exercised and talked to my mom. And I did nothing else. My list of what I want to do in a weekend is 10 days worth in two days.

And such is life.

I will never get through all my list and that’s wonderful because it means I have a lot of things that give me joy. So I will tackle a few each time and look forward to the others next time.

Yes to relaxing weekends.

This has a very long week and I am very excited that it’s Friday tomorrow. I am ready to rest.

I was too tired and overwhelmed to go climbing tonight but last minute I decided to go anyway and here I am on my way back and had a really good night of climbing. A lot of solid exercise and also more quiet in my brain.

This is why I try to practice doing things even when I don’t feel like doing them. Because more often then not, I am glad I did it.

Yes to doing it anyway.

Too tired for a pithy update tonight. Yes to taking what I need.
