So today makes my 3rd day off of working on the camper. Ive not been sleeping well, had 8 hours sleep in 4 days last week! So I took a few days of rest. I totally shouldnt have, but today might be the day I get back after it. Of course, its only 9:30 AM, but I feel way better after a good night or two of rest. So my dilemma for the day is gonna be RAIN! Ughhhhh, Im so over the rain…..
Insomnia Breeds Bad Things
I am realizing alot of the painting I did last week, now needs to be touched up on the interior. Insomnia reeked alot of havoc on my life last week. But I finally had all the paneling installed. Most of the trim is also up, and alot of the painting (minus a few touchups) is now finished….
But I must keep going, insomnia that breeds bad things or not. I have to get this done! Its not just me now, and of course all this rain is not helping. But I still have a ton I can do inside! So Im about to get after it.
Forward Progress: Moving Day Approaches
I, slowly, am making my little diaster of a camper into something livable for us. But its been disaster after diaster to get me to this point, so I will take all the forward progress I can get. I have almost everything, minus a few 2×4’s, I need to finish it now! But time is dwindling away, and Im having issues focusing on just one thing. Maybe thats because Ive got too many things on my mind…
Have I mentioned how much I despise moving? Oh yes, its the worst in my humble opinion! I am so ready to just be finsihed. All this drama, long days, sleepless nights, and stress is really taking its toll on me. Add in the Covid-19 stuff, and Im just totally a hot mess right now.
Self Care Is Important
So if you take nothing else away from my post today, remember this. That it is important to listen to your own body! Yes, I should not have taken the past 3 days off…But I needed to rest and get my mind refreshed, so that I could focus and get more work completed. If you constantly push your own needs aside, youre gonna find that life will force you to take down time.
Take the day off, take time for yourself, or your family. Because you never know what lies ahead! I missed out on, and messed up more than I ever could express. Because I never listened to my own body. I kept pushing myself and pushing myself. And that never got me where I needed to be. So now Im going to have to spend the day repairing my own mess ups….
So what are you going to do for yourself today?
Do let me know in the comments.
Hope you have a great day too!
