Okay! Thought I’d pop in and let you know how my reset day is going so far.
I wrote for 90 minutes this morning AND I finished my April short nonfiction book. Go me! That was coincidental timing, but nice anyway. I also got 360 words written on my novel Sonnet.
I cleaned all three of my work areas. They’re all in my bedroom: a rolling desk that comes over my bed, my actual desk, and my bedside area. There are videos of all of that over on TikTok if you’re interested.
I’m up to 94 followers! It would be AMAZING if I got to 100 today. So if you haven’t already, give me a follow?
I wasn’t aiming for perfection here. Just functionality. None of those spaces were functional. They are now. I’d been putting it off forever because it felt so overwhelming. I was pretty shocked to see that each one took me almost exactly 7 minutes. So I had all three spaces functional in 21 minutes.
I also took Louie down to the shelter to get his stitches out and to officially adopt him! Adrienne and I also took him out to lunch. We ate outside (of course) and he did so well. His first real socialization effort.
Funny story, a little boy named Issac wanted to pet him. I’m fairly certain that was the first child that Lou ever saw. He wasn’t feeling it. He didn’t bark or snap or anything, just nearly choked himself trying to get away from the tiny human.
He collapsed into sleep the minute we got home. This goofy boy. He has comfy bedding, but he shoves it aside to sleep right on the floor.
Next up is meal planning, getting my editorial calendar updated and setting up my new notebook.
Meal planning is going to be a little more of a project than I expected. Our fridge went out yesterday, which means we had to throw out almost all of the fresh food we bought the other day. UGH. We have a repair guy coming, but not until Tuesday.
So. Daily shopping? Meal-by-meal shopping? We’ll see.
Are you having a reset day today, too? How are you doing?
Reset Day Check-in #1
It’s not huge, but I sorted out my medications. Tidied my craft room and my writing desk. I’ve also worked out what I’m doing with the Bluebell chapter that we eviscerated yesterday!
I misunderstood 'reset'! I was thinking of it as a day off, I get now that you are doing a recalibration in all these various areas. You Go! I am not this productive on a productivity day!!!
