I'll probably keep that canvas to do more rain drop experiments on (after seeing if I can find some video instructions). We're just at a point where starting over is going to be better than trying to fix, and I can make some adjustments to the composition on the next round. I'm actually a bit excited for it. 2 Quote We are not sinners trespassing in the garden of an angry God. We are prodigals come home; fully seen and deeply loved.

Whisper Posted Wednesday at 04:12 PM Author Report Share Posted Wednesday at 04:12 PM Page 2! I always feel so successful when the challenge rolls over to another page. It's a warm, fuzzy feeling. Earned 407 Argold in week zero. Areas with room for improvement, walking, playing with cats, eating without distraction, working on my online schooling, and doing more than the minimum for flexibility.

Unfortunately, I blocked off my reading / word chain area with part of my sorting, so that practice is suffering this week. Reclaiming that is my main goal for today. BUT, I put out the trash and recycling, filled to the brim! Feels good to be purging things of no value, even as I'm sorting things worth donating and keeping. Going to painting yesterday took a lot of time, so dropped a lot of other tasks. Still, worthwhile. 67 Argold Monday, 56 yesterday.

Whisper Posted 2 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Victory! I'm really starting to think that walks before work aren't going to happen until we get close to the next equinox. The morning darkness is making it too hard to get up, even with the lights on timers. I still WANT to do it, but I just don't think it's going to happen. After work, almost always tired, anxiety about the traffic near the park, and extra people in the park. But when I got off the freeway on my way home, the left turn (to the park) was lighter than the right turn to home. So I went left, and went to the park, and felt so so stupid about walking in my work shirt, but walk I did, and it was good. More people, but not too many. Temperature was nice, got a little sun, which I'm sure is good for me. Lower back was getting really stiff, so stopped and did some stretches, which helped. I've got a back-up "normal" shirt in my car incase I want to do something after work. I think I'll put an exercise shirt in too. Or actually start brining my walking clothes with me to work to change before heading home. Kind of the reverse of what I was doing in the summer. Anyway, proud of myself for facing some of the anxiety and getting a good walk in. 1 1 Quote We are not sinners trespassing in the garden of an angry God.

Fighting that enemy (anxiety) is always the worst but once you beat it, it makes life feel lighter. Great job on getting in the walk!
