multiples of three


I came up with some categories for my plan of three...to do monthly...uncluttered life plan...in small magical increments of 3

1. chores: this could be chores I put off: scrub the bathtub, clean out the refrigerator or wash the car

2. unfinished business: personal/ask for what is rightfully mine from my ex husband to business/dealing with IRS issues from husband #2 (dare I acknowledge a pattern here!) Oh, yes there was three husbands too!

3. learning something new: wanted to learn to salsa last night, didn't work out but I will try again. At this point, I am trying to learn Italian..."Come VA" how are you?

4. responsible issues: personal/dealing with daughter & her school problems, picking up the mother banner again (refreshed) and do what I used to do & enjoy

5. curiosity: look for IT- something special in a person, a day, an event, a view...make an effort to bring something beautiful to front stage then take the time to study it, show an appreciation for that moment, relate it to my reason for being and store it away either mentally or physically with photos or words

6. art projects: Complete/that means finish at least three personal art pieces or projects a month! *school projects for lesson plans do not apply/ that's work responsibilities

7. money issues: find ways to save money, meaning put it in the "Do Not Touch, Do Not Touch Fund until the next chance for travel time comes up"...Pay off credit card debt...look for ways to make extra money (it's OK to be ambitious!)

8. medical issues: get Sara & I to a dentist, get eyes checked, revisit doctor on Sara's throat, check on counseling again for Sara

9. start a new habit: maybe this is 3 a year?...exercise is a BIG, reading, writing, painting, time with Sara...maybe 3 a month ? Good Habits...is there limit to that except time?

10. mend some bridges: give an apology where needed (not necessarily because I feel I have wronged someone but maybe I just neglected someone special who just like I...needs some effort bestowed on them. {but by the grace of god go I}

11. learn new skills: skills that are practical like: changing the oil in my car, fixing my bike or repairing furniture

12. bury the past: this is last for a reason because to trash something emotionally, you must agree that it's not redeemable and therefore you will not exhume it (that's just disgusting in many ways)...I have a little procedure planned out and will talk about that more later!
