LIFE goes on and I want to as well. Still having issues with getting sleepy at night since co v id which means I am staying up too late.
It was about 4 this morning when I finally nodded off. Force myself to shut down before midnight. Retrain my brain. Another thing to be disciplined about. I'm going to have to set my alarm to make a ritual about when to get up in the mornings at a regular time. Add these habits to my lifestyle. It can be done.
It's Tuesday and I sanitized the toilet. Tomorrow I will sanitize the Bathroom vanity and sweep the floor. I don't want to get in the road of HUBBY as he is remodeling the POTTY ROOM. Today, we're going to TOPEKA to purchase the wood needed for finishing out the trim. While in TOPEKA, I have a large donation for charity to drop off. We're slow, but steady with the clean-up. The continuous decluttering has happened as part of our RETRAINING OUR BRAIN to turn lose of THINGS we don't need to store.
RETRAINING THE BRAIN really is just a change of habits and being disciplined to follow through with a new habit that wasn't being practiced before. Retrain the brain. Same with eating habits and what food is stuffed in one's mouth. Shopping habits and what is placed in the shopping cart. Spending habits. Cleaning habits. Walking time. Reading time. ETC. Retrain the brain. Amen.
I was told that I would have to retrain my brain with the results of having cataract surgery where I can no longer focus up close on my own. This is still challenging as I was use to being able to see things up close without glasses on. I want to get a pretty magnifying glass to wear around my neck when out shopping. Distance vision is pretty good. Up close, not very good at all.
RETRAINING ONE'S BRAIN isn't always the easiest thing to do. It takes practice and what do some say about practice makes perfect? Practice sometimes helps create new habits. Never perfect. A play on words.
I do believe I need to get around to go to TOPEKA. Will try to make this trip as fun as possible. Off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wizard of OZ.
