Is thinking on your feet a really good idea?

Or is a better idea when on your feet to stay focused on what you are doing?

I say stay focused because I’m tired of turning around and bumping into something. It feels as if I move on scroll instead of step by step.

This time if year I move furniture into the summer arrangement. This mid month week of April 2026 has rain forecast for two days. Moving things is perfect indoor exercise. The timing is perfect. I’ll be in better shape by Summer to get outdoors more. 

I notice that when I watch travel videos, I want to travel more. Watch home improvement shows, I want power tools. Camping videos, I want to make a coffee outdoors and sit in a tent when it is raining. What we feed our brain digests what we enjoy to encourage us to engage in that activity. 

This week I’ll watch exercise videos. See how that goes.

Have an adventurous & wonderful week!

What’s been going on?

Stuff mostly.

A recent purchase of an over the door rack is the reason I’m rearranging my storage areas. The galley kitchen is too small to store can goods that close to an oven. Thus, out of the bottom cabinet and on the pantry shelves they go. 

The door rack is where spices, cereal, teas and light things will be placed.

That frees up overhead cabinet space for soup bowls and such. So now, instead of moving left to right, I can twirl around to get my favorite little fruit bowl. Also, the bottom cabinet now provides pans a new home that’s off the stove and counters. 

The whole process highlights for me how very important good organization is to having a healthy interior environment. 

A word about low fat foods. 

Low-fat cottage cheese is horrible! With my limited sense of taste, due to covid 2022 booster, I treasure the few flavor levels I can enjoy. I dislike even more the flavors that are horrid. 

I feel the same about most low-fat foods as well as light beer. 

What else? Oh, Instagram has become the babysitter to my bored-self. I spend too much time crying and laughing as I scroll through a tremendous variety of video shorts. 

Let me just say that bravado is in vogue. It can be healing, but too much can cause you tell feel a lot of it is hokey. 

Art. Being busy with moving things around, I’ve been falling asleep for some righteously good naps instead of painting. Now that I’ve finally repotted the pothos and English ivy, the table can be clear for creative endeavors. 

How is your September going?
