WHY I NEED MY LIST!! 🤪

I needed to buy some specific items for my stall at the business festival next week.
4 things… that’s all!
I grouped the letters to help them stick in my memory!
S, T, T and CC!
Easy!

Straws,
Terry’s Chocolate Orange 🍊,
Tracksuit trousers 👖 and
Check Cupcake 🧁 price!

… I decided I didn’t need a list!

I came home with …

Shorts 🩳 ,
Swimsuit 🩱
Hadn’t got the tracksuit trousers 👖 I wanted
Decided the cupcakes 🧁 were quite expensive 💰 but forgot the price!
However, I completely FORGOT the straws! 🤦🏽‍♀️

That is why writing a list and keeping to it is so important!!

Can anyone else relate?!?! 🤪

“… HOW MANY APPS?!?!”

I am noticing at the moment that my phone battery is draining away really quickly! Then I will also notice that I have 26 apps left open …! Then I will have to go through each app individually and shut them down. (In truth, it is usually my daughter does this for me! It has become a bit of a daily challenge for her to see how many apps I have left open!!)

Small wonder that my phone 📱 is struggling!

It got me thinking…

Often, in life, we do the same! We have an endless list of jobs to do swirling round in our minds! That list never really seems to get any shorter, but each activity drains a bit of our energy and motivation!

So here’s a suggestion;

- Try writing your list of jobs down on a piece of paper ( usually A4 for me, not a tiny scrap of paper!)
- spend a couple of minutes prioritising them - either date them, colour code- whatever works for you.
- as you work through them, either tick them off or cross them out.
- after each completed activity spend 5 seconds, noticing that it is done and releasing that job from your thoughts.
- Allow yourself to feel a sense of satisfaction as you begin to work through the tasks and become aware that you are making real progress.

Give it a try and let me know if this works for you!

DANCING DAFFODILS 🌼

As I look out into the garden , I can’t help but smile! The bright yellow daffodils add a splash of colour and as they move it seems like they are dancing in the breeze. It really has put a smile on my face!

Watching them helps to remind me that Spring is on its way, and warmer, lighter days are coming.

Sometimes it is helpful to stop, and notice what is around us! If we are intentional about noticing the good things, our mindset and mood can be quickly changed and reset!

So today…. Can you see the daffodils dancing too?

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Yesterday afternoon was spent with a close friend of mine! She has a number of health problems and is considering whether she can remain at home or needs to move to alternative accommodation. 🤔

So after much questioning and soul- searching… an appointment was finally booked to go and have a look around at a suitable place - with options of 24-hour care as well as supported- living apartments. 🫤

This was a massive step, even to consider this after a very independent and full life, managing at home for many years. 😮‍💨

As we pulled up in the car park, I could see her face tighten as her brain replayed previous experiences of trauma and pain from previous periods of respite and enforced hospital stays. 😧

“I don’t know why I’ve done this!” She mumbled.
“I meant to write a list of questions…!” 🥺

I gently replied.

“Take a few deep breaths! Think of this afternoon purely as a chance to gather information! Look around and take in the environment and surroundings! There is no pressure to have to make an immediate decision ! This is only the first step. We can handle it together!” 🤗

My friend visibly relaxed 😌

The lady showing us around was absolutely brilliant - she listened, she understood, she laughed and made time for us. 🤪

2 hours later after free tea 🫖 and delicious lemon drizzle cake 🍰 , we left with a bundle of leaflets, many answered questions and a lot of positive information to consider.

In the car 🚘 my friend said “ I am really glad I came to look around here today! It has really helped me to feel like I have some options. What an amazing place!” 😁

Her journey to find the right place for her future accommodation continues, but at least now her brain and nervous system will register this ongoing search as a positive experience!

She truly is learning to become “ Unshrinkable!”

🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
