    Journaling - My life... hm. Some days are hard. Some days are great. It just depends. I do the stuff that needs to get done that qualifies as “adulting” or whatever you want to call it. I do the stuff that makes me happy as much as I can get away with. I do stuff that I don't want to do but need to do for my health or to survive or just to fill up an hour or two. Overall, things are good. Overall, I'm happy. Overall, I'm content. I wish I could sing more without being shushed by my kid, but there are bigger complaints out there. I wish my feet were warm but that's my own fault for not getting my slippers. They are too far away in the bedroom and I just want to complain about it. I wish that the chore fairy would come and clean the house because I don't want to do it. I wish someone would bring me a cocktail, but I'm not suppose to have them so I guess that's a good thing because of my AFIB medication. I wish we didn't say good bye to people. Anyway, I changed my mind and I'm going to get the slippers.

    Some interesting thoughts as a result of this challenge. Then I took a light hearted spin to it.

    I was so not sure what to do for this challenge... until today when we had an extra long period without electricity... I started writing and it just flowed... guess I needed to get it off my chest!

    I love that you participated, and I wholeheartedly agree with the need to find somewhere to explore. New things keep our brains and souls happy :) Lovely page!

    I'm so glad you are starting to enjoy the process! It's funny how we think something is outside our comfort zone and then when we do it a couple of times, all of a sudden it's in our wheelhouse! Keep learning about YOU!!
