Focus


It's Sunday.  
Time to get some perspective.
Regain some purpose.
What keeps you focused?

    Just 5 minutes of visualization. I like to do it right before bed when the lights are off and I am relaxed. Helps me reel things in and focus on how I want things to go. I can "see" it :)

    For me, really taking some time to think about where I am, where I want to be, and what I need to do to get there helps!

    One way for me to get focused is to go to church on Sunday and hear a great sermon. It gets me off to a good start for the week.

    It helps me to be in an attitude of gratitude for my life and all the blessings I have.

    This is a great question and I have no idea what my answer is. Maybe progress? It keeps me motivated.

    I must write everything down. I may have 3 or 4 lists at the same time, but without SEEING it, I lose sight. Gotta have my eye on the ball.. if you know what I mean :)
    My blog also helps me with this focus and staying on track.

    Have a great day my friend !

    Writing. Stories get the voices out of my head. Blog posts keep me connected. Lists keep me organized. Writing writing writing.

    Hmmm, i think staying focussed is just paying attention for me, choosing to work at it.

It's Here

We got the moving truck rather unexpectedly. It's more expensive than Mr. Survival planned, so we're doing a lot of lifting, cardio, and squats. No. We're not doing the bootcamp in a trailer. We ARE moving things to the new garage, since we can't move in yet, but they're being kind enough to let us dump in a storage manner. Sorry. I'll have to beg your forgiveness and promise to update you. Eventually.

I Found True Happiness

It feels like I've become a detached voice, writing but not feeling on this blog.  I'm living a lot of things that don't fit neatly into my bloggable ownership file. Even now, I've spent an hour with this tab open to write a new post and I've done absolutely everything else possible.  For once I can't put a finger on what I'm feeling.  I don't fit into any definable box. On one hand, I'm spending an hour in therapy with Chickadee and another hour round trip three times a week. Mr. Survival is fighting off unemployment blues. We cannot shake things up and have me go to work. I'm not going to go to FitBloggin'11 . But, on the other hand, Chickadee is STANDING in the stander for minutes instead of seconds! Chickadee is grasping things momentarily for the first time in eighteen months. I'm so in love with Mr. Survival it's unbelievable. We are tighter as a family than we ever have been. I'm stressed and frustrated.  I...

Flying With Concrete

Today I wanted to write about my dreams. Full of hope and bliss and fulfillment. Yeah, I sound about as light as a bucket of cement. Ready to fly away. Hang on, while I toss out the top of the pile. Maybe that will help me find my lofty aspirations. Nope. Thing is, I'm remembering today that I'm afraid of heights. Really. Once Hubbend made me climb up three stories of scaffolding. Broke it all down for me and left me no other choice. Made me feel irreplaceable. Yes, we must remember that I am crazy friends. Leave it to me to feel important by being told to go up a towering structure of death. I did it though. And I even wired a speaker while I was up there. But I'm still afraid of heights. So. Do you wanna help me out today? For every comment that tells me something someone wants to be able to do that they can't do now I will do one minute of exercise. Really. Because of my child care situation, it will have to be tomorrow morning. So have at it. ...
