It’s day 10 for the April Ultimate Blog Challenge. This time around, I have learned that it’s better to come to the keyboard early rather than later. My brain is still fresh, not yet polluted by the day and negative thoughts. Mid afternoons are my worse time for being like a puddle on the floor. But it’s never too late to rouse oneself and start. I was inspired by Diane Friedman, who started competing in track and field in her mid 70’s. And she was competing and setting records at 100 years old.
What an inspiration, eh? It gave my derriere a boost out of the muddle and start moving. Just when I thought I couldn’t, I could. Even though it was late, late afternoon yesterday and I was a limp rag, I roused myself enough to bake 18 pumpkin muffins with walnuts and chocolate chips. So you see, it is never too late. The impossible can be possible.
Wonderful ♥️
I love that you found a way to inspire yourself today!
WOW! 100 yrs old! Amazing. I’m at the auto dealership getting an oil change, but when I get home I’ll be taking out my bike!
What an inspiration! I love this. Thank you for sharing!
that is very inspirational indeed! Some days I have a hard time getting motivated to do anything.
So it looks like you have had a busy day even before you got started.
I found that I was most creative in the morning and wrote without any correction. Then in the evening, I would go back and do the corrections.
For these blog challenges, I usually do not get started until the afternoon and by the time I get ready to post, it is more than six hours later with meals and other interruptions.
Afternoons are not good times for me. I get huge energy and mood drain and don’t/can’t do anything. I’ve noticed that you tend to post late in day. I used to do that, too.
Lily, I saw your muffins on Facebook, and they looked delicious!
And you’re absolutely right, it’s never too late for something you set your mind to.
Thank you, Tamara.
