As my days become more and more scheduled, with jobs and house projects and visits with friends, there are some goals I want to set for my personal life. The following are some everyday habits I'd like to develop, redevelop, or continue.
Make time for tea.
I have fallen out of my routine of tea with breakfast (and after lunch, and before dinner) everyday and I'd like to get that back. Preferably it will be a sort of meditation time, or break from the day, but having tea while working is permitted too.
Create something.
Anything creative, so long as it leads to progress. A photograph, collage, notes or plans for projects. For the garden, for the house or for my own joy. I just want to create, to make something with my own hands.
Play and walk with the dog.
Self-explanitory - she's energetic and maybe that'll rub off on me.
Read.
Books preferably, news articles frequently, and yes, even blog posts count.
Write.
I love words and I really want to make sure to flex my writing muscle as often as possible. Again, blog posts totally count.
Make a daily plan.
If you can't tell by the very first post on my very new blog: I really like to make lists. It helps me to accomplish all that I hope for in my days.
I know there will be days when all I have time for is running from one job to the next, but if there is just one goal I want to keep even on those days it is most certainly to make time for tea.
