ONE OF THOSE DAYS.....
Itās been one of those days. In fact, itās been one of āthose daysā for the past couple of weeks.
What even are āthose daysā???
For me, āthose daysā are the days where my brain isnāt engaged- which can be a problem seeing as I kind of need my brain. āThose daysā vary from not being 100% involved to feeling like someoneās stuffed a load of cotton wool in my head or wanting to bang my head against a brick wall. REPEATEDLY.
The former variety I can live with, they generally only last a day or so and can be solved through more sleep and less caffeine (and/or wineā¦.) Itās the other type that bother me. As if I need something else to think about. My brainās already feeling full enough without having to think about the fact that itās full in the first place!
I feel like I canāt do ANYTHING. Because Iāve got TOO much to do. Well, thatās silly isnāt it?
NO.
I think sometimes it all just gets too much, too much to process, too much to think about and too much to do. ALL THE TIME.
I think more and more of us feel this way and I think itās because of the lives we live in 2015. Which is fine, donāt get me wrong. I love being 23 in 2015. Itās great. Constant communication, sharing, connectionā¦ā¦itās all great. Most of the time. But not always, and I think we just get overwhelmed, and who can blame us eh? I donāt think another generation has had to multi-task like we have to, so what can we do? What am I doing? (and by that I am mean going to doā¦ā¦)
1. Stop putting stuff off (only myself to blame on that one, but we all do it right?)
2. Stop. Actually just stop. Read a book, go for a walk, actually try and do some meditation that Iāve been promising myself I would do.
3. Stop promising myself Iām going to do things like meditating and doing yoga EVERY DAY. I mean, how obtainable is that unless youāre a yogi? Which Iām not. Like the time I vowed to follow the 30 day Yoga Challenge (for THIRTY days) and announced it to the world. Well, I didnāt do it did I? and now Iām annoyed with myself. Damn.
And then I think if I can do just those 3 things, Iāll have more time. Or at least feel like I have more time and then wonāt be so overwhelmed and cotton wool-heady. I mean, I havenāt knitted in weeks, WEEKS!! and I bought new yarn and a new book and everything.
SO. Stop procrastinating.
Once Iāve done that, Iāll let you know if I feel any better and if it helps at all in keeping knit togetherā¦ā¦
