TODAY 18 March 2010

I saw this on another blog and thought it was a
great way to encourage expressing myself...
I tend to second guess my thoughts and feelings...
overthinking...that's why i've deleted and re-wrote the
previous line three times now.
Optimism tells me that is a display of my
determination to do everything with excellence...
but my second thought is that its a hinderance
to actually DOING anything, i just end up
thinking about it or making a list. oh my lists.
Must work on taking ideas through to completion (whatever that means!)
So, here is my TODAY.

Outside my window...its dark and quiet (12:43pm) under the darkness is a yard that is begging for some tlc and flower pots screaming for some fresh flowers (this wknds to-do!)

I am thinking...i have so many dreams and ideas

I am thankful for...my husband sleeping in our bed instead of overseas

From the office...
on the desk - torn jeans to be 'dealt with' (repair, return to store, reuse somehow?)
school desks - are clean and ready for tomorrows projects
why is the printer still on, i thought i turned it off...hmmm...

From the kitchen...the noisy, old, LAME-O refrigerator is whirring...hey, at least I have one!

I am wearing...my political t-shirt that reads "charter member of the vast right wing
conspiracy" there's a story there

I am creating...a blog post, hopefully

I am going...to bed soon, hopefully

I am reading...mostly coupon websites lately, wish i could write something fabulous here, but alas that's one more 'thing' to work on

I am hoping...for encouragement from the one who knows all the details of these thoughts, ideas, burdens, goals...from the one who put them inside of me in the first place: God!

I am hearing...the hum of my computer, the click clack of the keyboard, the train passing by

Around the house...i see things i've accomplished: vaccumed carpet, dusted furniture, photos of my family and i notice the things i still want to tackle: sewing projects, appointments to be made, grocery list that keeps growing
