Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

September It Is

September 7, 2020

Kind of Yoda-like wouldn’t you say? :-) But, it is a new month and a new season so it’s time for a fresh start.

My Summer Schedule is over and it was okay. I decided to ditch Flylady, except for zones and weekly planning, and I bought the classic “Home Comforts” by Cheryl Mendelson to fill in the gaps in my housekeeping skills.

I read several books in August, the funnest and most inspiring being “The Jane Austen Diet” by Bryan Kozlowski. I plan to implement a lot of these ideas this fall and hopefully get on the path to wellness. Well, it’s the hope anyway. I have recovered for the most part from depression, but the self-care part is still wanting.

Speaking of books, the library trip followed by a tea party every two weeks gig has been reinstated as well. My daughters and I are happy and there was a lot of sipping and reading going on Saturday. I hope our library reopens on Sundays though as that is the best day to have this quiet time.

And finally, with cooler weather comes more time outside. My old body doesn’t like the heat much anymore so I tend to wait for cool snaps in the summer or, if it’s really brutal, just wait until fall arrives. I’m looking forward to more time at the duck pond.

I hope your summer was a good one, all things considered, and let’s take time this fall for a refresh.
