I kinda love those days when my "lift heavy stuff" box gets ticked doing Regular Life Activities. Way to go, moving the headboard! And yeah, under the bed is second only to behind appliances for those "have I literally EVER cleaned this???" moments.   I hope a lot of those little tasks chain nicely into a productive putter and you find yourself at the end of the day going, "yep, I did good."

Congrats on getting the redress sorted. It helps to know there's something coming, even if it is a ways in the future.   I've also had a lot of low phases over the past few years, and it's been hard to find the activity-nutrient that my plant-soul is missing. Or rather, every time I think I've dialled it in, it changes? Anyway, I feel your woe, and I hope you will happen upon something you can get deep enough into to recharge, whether that's just literally resting more (I have a friend who is so much more vibrant since they started napping!) or revisiting a beloved activity you haven't made time for recently.

Seems like you're on a real roll this week, including rolling with challenges like your back.    I still love that you're reading The Hobbit to your horse. Whereabouts in the story are you?   Wishing you speedy stair stringing so you can thumb your nose at the rain.

I love your witchy boots SO MUCH! Ribbon laces make everything cooler.  Your bujo spread is awesome too, and I looooove that door.  But I think my favourite photo you shared this week is the blackened branch poking up from the grass.  It looks like it could be about to rise and intone something spooky at any moment, or like it might mark the boundary between the mortal world and somewhere spookier.  You stayed on the right-hand side of it, I hope? Or carried some rowan for protection?

When I read a mostly truly excellent poem, while someone is hosting a poetry thread, I would be remiss not to share it, even if said host introduced me to the source of the poem.     The part is bolded particularly spoke to me on this reading. I've decided to paint a painting to put it on. I'll start it today, but it might take a few sitting to do. And agreed with the spoiler. 

That... that is the way it is worded. That is the only way to word it. I'm so confused.     I would like strength training to be that for me, too, but I can't really ignore the data and sheer convenience of walking.     Ugh, I know. I need so much more of it.

Thank you!  Just trying to find ways daily to make life feel more full and beautiful.    I tried just journaling and it never offered me enough structure. The book was helpful in guiding me  in finding at least a purpose on why I am doing this.  As for it being a commonplace book for you, I think that is amazing and actually is one of the sections the book references (they are called collections).   Unfortunately a large portion of my collections are digital and I haven’t dug into the digital version of the Bullet app to see if it integrates well with my current commonplace.  

Did not call the electrician yesterday. I had every intention of doing it, but then got sucked into a project and forgot until dinner time

Today is a rest day. Still restless and wandering about though, so not ideal.   made more soup (tomato and chilli) and did some more to my bujo. experimenting with blending again. Turned out pretty nicely.      

Friday Report -  A very good day. Spent the afternoon working around the farm - got my stair stringer cut and the anchor posts cut with holes dug, exercises and groomed my horse, did some fence work, and still had time to read a couple chapter of The Hobbit. I like my job and am excited about the new position, but I'd really be quite happy if I was in a position to just work on my farm every day. Looked at horses in the evening, which I knew was a bad idea since I'm not ready to actually bring one home yet. Found a black Quarter Horse at 14.3 hands named Boone who I fell in love with almost immediately. Might whale away on fence posts for a while today and see if I can't get some progress going there. I need to get them out before someone else buys Boone! Also discovered a gorgeous piece of property for sale near me and once again made a plug on discord for a NF commune. One of these times they're gonna go for it, I just know it.   Saturday: Off to a good start this morning. Chores done, prepped for class, breakfast eaten. Going to lift at 9, then class at 10, then hang stair stringers at 11. Pause for lunch, then get back to completing the staircase and fence work. I am a bit behind on my class readings, but far enough along to get through class today and then it's reading week, so I'll put some real effort into catching up, since I have to turn my Reading Log in at the end of the week. Rain predicted for tomorrow, but if the staircase gets done today, that means the next phase of the work in inside, so weather stops being such a limiting factor.
