remember your joy on Mondays

Monday is a hard day for me. If you’re like me, you’ve spent a bit of your weekend planning the to do list for the week. And if you’re like me, your list is a loooonnnnngggggg one – too long.

So come Monday morning, I hit the ground running. My self talk is all “I’ll do this first, then on the way to do this thing, I’ll pick up that thing and drop off two other things, and then I’ll get to work to start my 8hr day of to do things there”… No wonder I fall in a heap by mid afternoon!

Just to make things super interesting – and ramp up the difficulty by a factor of 2.5 – throughout, I chide myself that I’m not quick enough, finishing enough, creating enough, impressing enough. And because I’ve spent the day berating me, I go home – late – as a failure.

How did I get this screwed up? Maybe a realistic plan to move towards my goals (whilst still helping everyone else with there’s)? No?

Monday’s should become my ease-in day, my take my time day, my baby steps day. And not just a hell day to get through to the other side.

Big sky today out west and lovely in the sunshine. #Queensland #winter #scenicrim #carneyscreek
Finally in the newsagents. #tdf #sbstdf #couchpeloton #bringiton
Thank you Haven. Haven. Coffee for Haven. Haven? Haven?
If you know, you know ❤️ #tpwk #harry
Late night staples when it’s winter in Brisbane. Tea and biccies. Crochet and cricket. #hugge #comfort #crochet #blanket #tea #biccies #lords #nzlvseng
Bedlam before. Bookcase after.
New moon in Taurus.
Back to work tomorrow after a much too short break. Prep to make things a little more pleasant. Anzac slice and banana bread. #podlife
I had a great night graduating Gin School. Brisbane Distillery at West End has a cool vibe and the class room is terrific. I made an ink gin with botanicals of agave, elderberry, green cardamom, orange blossom and wild rosella. Yum. #ginschool #gin #brisbane
I’d like to thank Australia Post for unknowingly supporting my effort to be an adult. To keep is in the wallets. To shred is in the postbox. #idontknowwhereigotitfromiswear #declutter #paperless #mortgageprep
Decluttering all the things and found a print out of this amongst my “things to journal about” prompt box. This birthday week I’m taking some time to break from the stress and grind of adulting. Nature is a great healer. Thanks for the reminder @chrisevans. Water the plants. Talk to the trees. Watch the birds. Support the bees. 💚❤️🐝🌻
Let’s go Australia. #ausvotes
Pretty sky. #scenicrim #queensland #nofilter
It’s been a week, hasn’t it? I’m taking the evening to rest. No chores. Nothing for me to have to/ should do - it can all wait til the morning. #rest #timeout #reset
So that’s a lot for one day. #bnestorm #subtropics #rain
There’s a storm water drain under there somewhere. Might not need to pay for a pool now. #bnestorm #subtropics #brisbane
Best find in a desk drawer EVER. #podlife #smallthings
Feels like 10 degrees cooler. #bnestorm #subtropics #brisbane
Low hanging moon. #brisbane
Found an old art box shelf insert and repurposed for my tarot and oracles decks. It feels so much better!! No more messy individual bags. #tarot #oracle #tarotdecks
