Let us march forth
-- with Joy --
on March Fourth!

(ok to dance forth, jump forth, stumble forth, tiptoe forth, and flow forth, too.)


Journey 2 pm

Quite the late checkin.  After a nice weekend with the grandkids, i woke up last night feverish and ill and called in sick to work.   I am feeling better now, guess it was some little bug I picked up from the rug rats.   I'm working from home a few hours this afternoon, and I'm considering today a gift of time to regroup and think about my goals.

10:01am : One of my favorite verses of all time: "And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you can decide what is best, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ." - Philippians 1:9-10

what i love about it is it starts with love abounding.
and the knowledge and discernment come from the love.
and deciding what is best, comes from the love.
and being pure and blamless on the day of christ, comes from the love.

12:04pm : It's been 3hr 4min since i last went off plan.
It's been 9hrs since i last relied on self.
I am grateful to god for the temptation to go off plan ( demand resistance ) because it is in those moments that i can receive from God new learning about resisting the temptation

Knitfisher's Check In 4th March 08:25am

Yesterday went OK in the end. Even managed to be social for a change, most odd for me and DH! The sun is shining on the south of the UK today, so am also determined to go take my virtual dog for a walk round the park later.

Today I have: 

  • put my workout gear on
  • Got my breakfast (eating as we speak)
  • Put some washing on 

Today I will:

  • Do workout
  • Have shower
  • Get washing out
  • Check audio setup for webinar
  • Webinar at 11am
  • Take photos of stuff to go on FB done 1 lot
  • Put stuff up on FB done 1 lot
  • Text M to see how she is
  • Call EF for W
  • Work for 4 poms on W done 3/4
  • Work for 4 poms on inbox done 1/4
  • LUNCH
  • GO OUTSIDE FOR A WALK (even 15 minutes makes a difference) well done me!
  • Empty DW started
  • Small Washing up
  • Prepare dinner for slow cooker (yum)
  • Turn down slow cooker once 5 hours up
  • Do compare for house insurance (when DH gets home) 

riddled marching forth...

... because my bicycle has a flat tyre today.

So, to do today after work (and probably some days after):

  • bring both bicycles home (the one with the flat tyre from the town where I work, and the other one from the train station in the town where I live)
  • find/buy: bicycle repair kit / new tube / new tyre if necessary / bicycle pump / bicycle pump lock
  • repair tyre
  • fit pump to bike with pump lock
  • while I'm at it: sort through & make inventory of spare bicycle parts
  • transport bike back to town where I work

Well... the inventory and the pump & lock were due anyway. And my other bike is still in working order.

Edit: It took 1:30h to push both bikes home from the train station. Then it was dark and I postponed all the rest.
