Good Mornings, Odd Vibrations

dolphins_logThe mornings are cool now. We have to close the downstairs windows at night or the heat comes on. This morning the sun is out and a cool breeze is wafting through the window. I plan to take a walk over to Tully's and get a chai. I've only had 11 cups of coffee this year, mostly for a social occasion. Don't think I'll be as into coffee as I once was.
Can't sit still. Time seems to fly and I have so much I want to do. At the same time the things I want to do appear before me like a tangled fishing line. I can't really start until I take care of this that and the other, and this that and the other can't be done until I take care of something else. Yuck. Time slips by and I feel I've accomplished nothing.
Then I look at what I have done. It's a matter of changing my opinion of those accomplishments. The walls, which took up so much of my time are actually not "garden work" but creative endeavors. And I've finished them. The web site reconstruction is not clean up work but a creative endeavor. It's not done yet, but it's close. Losing weight isn't a chore, it's an adventure.
Usually I discover that I can ignore all the distractions and settle in with the creative things I want to do. This time I think the only way I'll pull it off is by ... Writing in LJ about what I'm up to and what I'll do. That way I put it into conscious thought instead of subconscious impulses.
