Getting Dressed To Shoes, Hair and Makeup

MARILYN’S WAY  Paperwork Day, Car & Boogie, and Date Night.    Have I learned a valuable lesson!  The topic is SLEEP!   I have been getting to bed later than usual.  In fact I have been falling asleep in my recliner at night before I go to bed.  I will wake up from the recliner around 4 or 5am and then go to bed.  How did I get here?  I will tell you.  It is called “Doing Too Much In One Day Syndrome”  We have all done it and it simply does not pay off.  What happens is the next few days everything seems to take longer than it normally does.  Then you feel like you need to step it up some because the last few days weren’t that productive.  So you decide to do another “Doing Too Much In One Day Syndrome” again.  You feel all the busyness that this kind of day can bring and yet by the end of the day you look around and your home doesn’t look any better.  So what do you do?  You take a leap of faith and jump off the merry-go-round and you get back to basics routines.  You put anything extra on hold because if you don’t do this and continue the pattern you are going, you will wake up with the worst mess you have had in months and feel defeated once again.

This is what I have been doing.  I have been trying to learn some new things with the computer and gardening plans that I have overextended myself.  Today my body and mind are screaming and I am finally hearing.  I made a decision I am not going to do anything extra until I have my mind, body, and home where I feel comfortable again.  We somehow forget that there is also “Maintenance” to FLYing and that must be a priority if you ever want any peace for yourself and your home.  The weekend is here and make sure you have some family fun time and also renew your spirit.  By doing this and getting to bed at a decent hour you may be ready for Monday and that is Blessing Your Home!
Keep FLYing!
