It’s taken my whole dang life to get my shit together. It’s okay. It is a worthwhile life long project and I love learning. I’ve just spent 2 hours cleaning house. I’m sitting down with my cup of tea. It is a sunny morning. I’ve planted a few Chinese broccoli seedlings in the greenhouse. The radishes planted yesterday are looking good. The tulips by the front of the house are up. Amazon just delivered my electric kettle. I’m feeling pretty chipper.
I’ve realized now that I have given too much attention to my moods in the past. Everyone has them and I am no worse for them. I function very well, no matter which mood I am in. I’ve learned that I can choose how to feel. Some days it is harder than others. It is through living with it all that I grow and gain experience. It’s what gives my life flavour. So I shall try to whine less about my usual stuff, relax a little and try to have more fun if I can. Being a serious person, I’m really not a fan of fun. But I can learn to change.
I am always surprised at how much I can change once I open myself to that possibility. I can be a fast learner once I make up my mind.

Must be very satisfying, having planted the veges – broccoli and radishes. And the cleaning too. I’ve had good intentions to plant veges and bought packets of seeds but somehow never managed to get around to do it. Reading your article has made me realise that there is nothing like the present! Looking around all the clutter that’s around my room right now, makes me realise, I need to allocate some time to sift through these things to make some more space! Thank you for your inspiration 🙂
Yes, Alice, it is very satisfying to grow veggies and clean. I have to admit though that I am still very much a clutter bug. I’m working on my piles. My seeds never got put away last fall. I’ve been digging through the old and new to find the ones I want. However, I am turning over a new leaf – again and be more orderly. Thank you for telling me I inspired you.
