Obviously, I’m not following the old schedule since today is Thursday, not Monday. I don’t know why I can’t seem to get myself to follow up on my intentions. I want to get organized. I recognize the need to get organized. So, why can’t I get organized?
I find myself thinking I may have late onset ADHD. I seem to be demonstrating many of the symptoms: absent-mindedness, difficulty focusing, forgetfulness, problem paying attention, or short attention span….I wonder if I’ve passed it along to my children and grandchildren.
There are ways of overcoming it though. Recommendations include: let off steam by exercising regularly, find ways to help you relax, such as listening to music or learning breathing exercises for stress. As an attempt to get there, I find I’m already doing some of it. I try to exercise, just not regularly. I relax by listening to music and reading. I understand breathing exercises, I guess I just need to do them more often. I guess Yoga is an exercise method along with meditation.
I’ve also found an over the counter medication that may be promising although it’s rather expensive. We’ll see how that goes.
In the meantime. I’m exercising more regularly and adding other methods of doing it. With the weather improving, I’ll walk more regularly, I’m working out at home, and I plan to start doing Yoga more. I have several Yoga videos and I’ll start doing them every other day and see how it goes. All that will also help get me into better shape for our upcoming roadtrip.
I’m scheduling my writing. One blog per day on an every other day basis. This one for progress reports. The second one for writing on specific subjects or fiction. The third one with roadtrip planning updates. Starting next Monday.
I’m scheduling housework. I just haven’t worked out the schedule yet. That’s a task for this weekend. I’ll take all the encouraging thoughts and prayers available.
I’m right there with you. Let us know how you’re doing.
