Throughout this journey of “Somedays”, I’ve tried to use the purposefulness of the process to help me stay productive in other areas. I’ve tried to accomplish mini-“Somedays” along the way. I’ve written about some of them, but others, like organizing the kitchen cupboards, drawers, and pantry were just little (or sometimes big) accomplishments that I feel good about. Yesterday, I completed two mini-“Somedays”: two little plaques I’ve been wanting to make for our home.
I’ve had the intention of putting these together for months; however, putting aside the time to do them just never seemed a priority. Once I had them done and mounted on the walls, I wondered why it had taken me so long to get them done. It took less than two hours to make them and that included searching for the antique white frame I knew I had somewhere. Just two hours! How many hours do I squander on inane activities? Why do I not harness those hours and make them productive? The thought was eye opening.
And now, with eyes open, I’m going to look around to see what other mini-“Somedays” are waiting to be done. I had such a sense of accomplishment yesterday! It was a level beyond the effort I put in, but that’s okay. I like the feeling and I’m willing to accept it even for small projects. Bring on the To-Do list!
