Lots of should-ing going on today but I'm perfectly happy with the choices I made
I've been working 60 hour weeks in preparation of moving next month as my lease ends
Since May, I've been doing a minimum of 52 hour weeks
Last week, I worked 6 days straight
So although I should be packing, sorting, purging, meal prepping, laundry and cleaning, instead, I played in the dirt
I planted numerous cuttings that have had roots for weeks, separated plants that were crowded, upsized pots and will have gifts of greenery for those helping in this season (if wanted)
Plants make me happy, and I truly forgot how much so
To see them thrive, grow and multiply with hard work, time, attention and care is so rewarding
Not to mention all the herbs, produce and medicinals that are also thriving for fresh cooking
I'm reminded that slowing down to rest, pause and make my heart happy is just as important as the to do list
Even Jesus took time to rest, recharge and spend time with our Father
Oh and I sat in the sun while doing it all so I have a pink face and freckles popping out while letting my body work on Vitamin D
Don't forget to take a break for what makes your soul sing
