Tuesday

Tuesday was difficult - we didn't go on a walk and I didn't do any exercise, so I won't make that mistake again. I was grumpy and just wanted to be left alone, but that's not an option these days.

Adding work to the day may have upped the stress level for me, but Maddie handled it beautifully - completing all the online tasks assigned.

I made beans and rice with kale for dinner. It was not met with enthusiasm by either of us :/

Miss Sofya called to test out doing piano lessons via FaceTime. She and Maddie worked out a system that they agreed on. Also, the library has renewed all loans for 63 days.

I was a grump when Pawl got home - I think it was because my stomach was upset, but I was also frustrated with myself because I didn't make good use of my day.

Learned that I need to make movement a priority. Also, work on a list of positive choices such as:

• Take a walk
• Make a cup of tea
• Water/ repot plants
• Mend some clothes
• Crochet something
• Write something
• Meditate
• Call someone
• Watch a TED talk
• Gather donations
• Play a game
• Stretch
• Read something that teaches/inspires
• Watch something that teaches/inspires
• Help someone else
