Rasita My Family, My Animals, My Food

It is spring, my sports injury has healed up and I am looking at my life, reassessing, and thinking about things.

It is time to refocus.

I have a stash, a material, and yarn, stash. I want to use it up, well most of it so then I can refocus my sewing, and crafting. Having too much makes clutter, and clutter makes confusion. I have heaps of ideas of what to do, unfinished projects, etc. I have started on using it up and so far have produced a pair of shorts (with pockets) and a couple of aprons. I have finally completed a handbag which I started about 2 years ago (maybe longer) and have a dress so close to completion that has been sitting there even longer (it only needs a couple of buttons) which I will finish off also.

I also plan to increase my fresh fruit and salad eating, which shouldn’t be too hard now the weather is warming up. This will also include dehydrated goods which I have made at home. And it shall all be accompanied by less sugary drinks. I am not planning on eliminating all the bad for you but taste oh so good stuff, just limiting it. I want more real energy!

Another thing I will do, now that I can run again, is increase my exercise per week. I want to run maybe 3 times a week (which won’t be too hard to do) and add in some other exercises to help strengthen my knees and reduce the chances of future injuries.

I want to have less time on my pc, which means I will need to play less games. This shouldn’t affect work times though, but will hopefully help me to become more efficient on and off the computer.

I want to experiment more with recipes, make my own recipes that work, finish my nutrition study (1.5 months to go), complete the chicken coop and be collecting fresh eggs twice a week.

I will need to have some quiet time each week to pray, think, and collect my thoughts. This will be accomplished while running, crafting, and doing repetitive tasks with my hands which require little thought.

I am not over stretching myself, just refocusing on what I want to do in my life. My family will benefit from this, I will benefit from this and my friends will benefit from this. I don’t want to be in a pit anymore.
