March Link Party With “A Chronic Voice”
March’s Link Party
It’s time for March’s Link Party with Sheryl at A Chronic Voice. Woo Hoo! I’m really enjoying reading everyone’s contributions. This month’s prompts are:
Sorting
This topic is so my life right now, as I sort everything I own for moving. It is literally exhausting going through stuff I didn’t even remember I had. What do I keep? What goes to charity? Trash? Which one of my kids does this item belong to? My son, who lives an hour away, was in town this past weekend. It was great to have help! My oldest daughter is planning to help me tackle my closet next weekend. It just amazes me how much stuff I have crammed into cupboards and drawers!
Rising
Sheryl inspired me to try getting to bed earlier and getting up earlier. I need more structure to my not-employed life. I want to do this as self-care. I’m hoping to get into a better routine BEFORE I move into an apartment.
Rejoicing
My roof has been leaking into the upstairs bedrooms and hallway. Not dripping, just staining and bubbling the paint on the ceilings. The good news is that I just need to repair the flashing around the chimney. I don’t have to redo the whole roof. I’m thankful for that news!!
Reading
I love books and reading, and I have stacks of books to read everywhere. Currently, I’m working on:
Of Mess And Moxie by Jen Hatmaker
The Broken Way by Ann Voskamp
Re-Creating Home: Downsizing and De-Cluttering After 50 by Fran Scoville and Holley Ulbrich
A Survival Guide To Selling A Home by Sid Davis
The Art of Money by Bari Tessler
I did not realize I was reading so many books at one time! It’s time to finish one.
Priding
I had to think about this one for a bit, because usually I think about my children’s accomplishments. One thing I am proud of, is my keeping up with physical therapy for balance issues, and neck/shoulder pain. Physical therapy is really hard work for me, and I haven’t really noticed an improvement in my balance yet. But I just keep hanging in there. Bravo me!
Final Thoughts
