Home

Well,here I am home by myself once more. I did talk to my hubby and he will be coming home Mon nite as they are almost finished silaging but he also has a Board meeting and a funeral to work on Tues. That will be the beginning of our Fall routine I think. In a week or two he will be gone again to do harvest but for now, it will be routine (whatever that is)!

Our 'kids' left on Friday morning and I left right after them to drive to Calgary. It was a clear sunny day so all went well. A bit of construction but no holdups. Had a great visit with my brother & wife and even watched a few movies inbetween our conversations. It was such a nice day and the place they are housesitting at was beautiful too. It was very relaxing and the drive to and from was too.

All that time in the car does help you to think about a few things. My mind was 'all over the place' though and didn't really 'think through' a lot of stuff but it does get a person to thinking about all the things they do in a short period of time. I guess it is whatever you think is 'priority' and you go from there. I usually go by whatever needs to be done first and what is most important sometimes gets left to the last but even so, we can do a lot when we have to get something done. It was a 'light bulb moment' for me as I had been thinking I was beginning to slip a bit and was not being too productive. I guess I place value on 'productivity' rather than quality. I need to reasses that!

Anyway, I am just thinking I need to actually spend some time reviewing what the priorities are in my life now and maybe even 'try' to do a plan for myself - at least an overview - of what's important and what I should attempt to get done. Of course, this is not the first time I have said this so I won't be too surprised if I just continue to 'react' to life. However, I am stating in black and white this time that I would like to try.
