Resources

Knowing there are doctors and hospitals nearby if we need them
My babies, my heart in two pieces
The amazing lengths a mom will go through for her kids, without batting an eye
Holding my sick Hannah all night if that’s what it takes
Even when I can barely function- that’s a special, God-given strength
The rise and fall of sleeping breath
Having resources, books, etc literally at my fingertips through it all
Health

Inner rebuilding day – for body mind

1. Managed to do the tibetian rites with my rather shakeable body

2. Been respectful to my body mind – and not overwhelmed it with outerworld tasks

3. Fun easier different way of snow shoveling today

4. Warm meeting with my youngest son;0)

5. Found a new “daily joke” site which instantly made my laughing muscles dance

 

1. God
2. Healthier eating – mostly
3. Thanks to Cassie for organizing lunches like salads and things to eat in between like nuts grapes and carrots (no more visits to the cafe with their tempting and dangerous treats)
4. A crock pot in which to cook oatmeal for several days, also to slow cook a chicken stuffed with garlic
5. Energized by work and working with that energy
6. Not feeling left out of anything – plenty to occupy my attention and train my energy towards
7. Julia Ferhenbacher’s poetry

Calm Tuesday

Feeling of calm after the storm. Yipeehope and

grateful for brotherly connections  and praying for a positive outcome   It has been much too long

feeling relief and sense of calm as a result of meditation.

A perfect gift for my best friend. Don’t you love it when you are so excited because you found something when you really weren’t looking

contentment from praying for others, some known and others not

inclusiveness. Feeling we are all connected when outward appearances indicate otherwise

practicing patience

grateful for my husband and his love – preparing taco dinner along with complete clean up of the kitchen

feeling the impact of gratitude

grateful for l the gift of today and for each of you

24 hours

A 24 hour bug that hit us all actually lasted a bit less
My husband, who sacrificed sleep to help with the baby even though he had to work today
Forced self-care
Hugging my eldest
Her golden curls
Planning fun things to do, esp for Easter
Naps
My MIL, who helps so much
Rest day
Looking back, seeing that I wasn’t listening to my body, learning from that

An ordinary day..in a way

1. From  the blog “Celebrate possibilities”  nr 562  Simple Things That Make You Happy

– It is so nourishing to feel this , for me precious simplicity – natural joy – It is a kind of soulsister thing:0)

2. Energy enough to a jolly hour doing housecleaning.

3. Got to say Hello to my son’s girlfiend.

4. Photographed personal items in this house, and realized i only have things that give me great joy, and yet, i’m not attached to any of them:0))

5. Perfect exchange of office chairs with my mum. She’s got my bigger one, and i have now a simpler version – perfect for guitarplaying in my little nest.
