Canesister's 2025 journal - Bushel & Peck Farm

[Ridgetop]

Showed up to work tonight to find out that the bathrooms on this end of the building are closed again. They are finally doing the promised remodel. Expecting it to take 5 weeks or more.
FIVE???? It's just 2 little closets, each with 1 toilet & 1 sink?

Bring a bucket?

Oh wait - you are going on day shift.

Hi-hoooooo!
Hi-hoooooo!
Hi-ho! Hi-ho!
It's off to work I go!


New routine starts at 4:15am

As long as I'm starting all over brand new, I'm setting up a brand new set of routines.

*Up, coffee, daily devotional, inspirational reading, meditation
*movement (bodygroove's dance or yoga)
*breakfast (bright lines' : fruit, protein, grain)
*get ready for work and add food to 'The Bag' - lol it's my old milking supply bag. A TON of pockets around the outside. Room in the middle for my Bright Line lunch & dinner, bubbly flavored water + BT speaker, neck fan, thermal mug of ice. Outside pockets have ibuprofen, vita b, chargers, tums, lotion, oralgel, solanpas patches, arnicare, dmso, icyhot, earpods, mints, pepto tabs,..... LOL everything I've found myself without at some point & regretted it.

READY, SET, GO!

Thank you. I've not decided whether or not to attend, yet. September is our recruitment month at work, very demanding.

Great idea! I have a couple of those 5 gallon pail tool inserts. DS1 doesn't like them for tools but they would make great travel pails to hold everything within reach!

3am.... wide awake.
Going to go ahead & get the coffee going. I've got some extra cleaning to get done before Vickie & Glenn arrive next week.

Funny how when I WANT to create a new routine or habit it takes forever.... and often fails. But things that I don't necessarily want to become a habit can take deep roots in just 1 or 2 repetitions.
¤ put the folded laundry away immediately.... struggle always to get it done
¤ leave the basket next to the dryer once & is back to square one
Same with the dishes in the dish washer.

I hate unloading the dishwasher. I have a basket of dry clothes that I hung out on the clothes line. Not folded. Need to dust.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
