A New Day...

OK, I was ranting yesterday. I did and do care enough about my home that I carried stuff down our 3 flights of stairs (several times) to my truck. I had chosen some items that were ready to bless another person's life. So my errands yesterday were to take the trash out, drop a couple boxes off at the thrift store, one box to the Encore resale store for nicer items that benefit our area hospice program. I also put fuel in the truck and washed its windows.

So I had some caring in my heart/mind. Trying to focus on what I do have and not what is lacking will help more than I understand. What ever one focuses on is what will grow or multiply. If I would have chosen not to do the things I did, I would had most likely sat around the house feeling sorry for myself. What would that serve? Certainly not me. So I finished my errands and came home to finish the laundry and walk across the street to the produce market and bought celery, carrots and grapes. So that made it  at least 5 times up and down our 3 levels, every time carrying something. My legs are nicely sore today to remind me I need to do it more frequently. {smiles}

Today I have an appointment with my psychiatrist at 1130 am. It is a 45 minute drive and usually a 45 minute wait to see her. I will be grabbing some lunch then headed to a friends house to help tidy up. He has back problems and can't run the vacuum or stand long enough to do the dishes. His friendship means much and it is pleasing to get paid by having lunch with him. The Universe is good, if we can focus on the good and not the disappointing factors in our life. You all have permission to remind me of that when I am ranting. OK? OK. {smiles}
