[Morning Entry, Ps T-35]

……. grateful for a light dinner.. this way I’m not going to bed hungry.. and I’m helping my body get into the healing stage.. then I wake up refreshed and not groggy or froggy..

Ps. Yesterday was the first rain in over a month or two.. it was also the day I happened to remove a sand barrel lid for refurbishing.. so I think some water got in the sand barrel (which generally isn’ta good thing).. hopefully the moisture bakes off..!

……. grateful for routine.. does every animal need a routine?.. is routine the key to a happy life?.. guess it depends on what I want.. if predictability is valued over spontaneity; and which one sounds more freeing.. I think freedom is the thing I really want.. some need boundaries to feel truly free and others need fewer boundaries to feel truly free.. and someone both types exist, so be both..

……. grateful for reveal.. Bootcamp has a way of revealing the inner layers of the human.. what’s there in others is often an indicator of what’s here in myself.. do I accept or resist what’s available in the present?.. is my heart hard or soft?.. there is a line between communicating out of compassion versus control..

……. grateful for deep sleep.. haven’t had it in a while.. maybe I’m anxious about moving to the plot soon.. maybe I need to make a list and prioritize the items.. this usually makes me feel better when I am overwhelmed.. the colder nights are upon us.. and winterizing is very near.. shelter, food and water systems, heat source and firewood..
