📅 Daily Check-in - October 7, 2026 💭 Reflection: "Yesterday was busy but good. Took my grandson to his counseling appointment which went well. It seems to be helping him, plus he got to go to Boy Scouts last week and this week after not having been since April. He spent some time with us at our place and then I watched him and his brothers and sisters at their house for about an hour or so until my son got home and got situated for the evening. I came home and we had leftovers from the wonderful meal from the awesome Italian restaurant from the night before. I had some filet mignon and an excellent sweet potato casserole and some asparagus. Afterwards, I spent some time on an online art business course and also some time with my husband and younger son (and our pup too, of course! He's almost always sitting on me or next to me!). Today, I have an appointment this morning and will be picking up groceries and then coming home and doing some sketching/painting and working on my art business class. I should probably get those certifications done for Medicare, too. My heart so is not in that anymore. But I'm so happy that I've found something that does speak to me and makes me happy. Didn't do my breathwork yet this morning. Was going to do it before breakfast, but I'm still a bit stuffy and it's hard to take deep breaths in through the nose. LOL I still want to do what I can with that. If there are any suggestions when dealing with a stuffy nose and doing breathwork, please share!" 📊 Wellbeing Scores: 😊 Happiness: 8/10 ⚡ Energy: 8/10 🎯 Focus: 8/10 😌 Calmness: 8/10 🌙 Sleep Quality: 6/10 🔥 Motivation: 8/10 ⭐ Average: 7.7/10 ✅ Activities from yesterday: 💧 Stayed Hydrated 🥗 Healthy Eating 🍺 No Alcohol ☕ No Late Caffeine 🥦 Ate Vegetables 🙏 Prayer 🛋️ Therapy Session 🎓 Online Course 👥 Quality Time 🤝 Helped Someone 👂 Active Listening

Daily Check-in - 2026-10-08 Reflection My up today was working with two clients and them having real breakthroughs. That always boosts my energy because it is in alignment with who I am and being able to help them to move forward. My low energy point is the launch and sprint that I'm doing with my business. I'm trying to trust the process. It's not landing as I expected it would, so it becomes harder to keep pushing. I'm also feeling like I'm running out of time because I'm going away on holidays and I've got lots to fit in before I finish for a couple of weeks.

💭 Reflection: Tuesdays check-in: a mixed bag 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝘀: Started a new body-doubling rhythm with my swimming buddy Cherie (whom I met from my weekend getaway in Welliewood NZ) - and it was genuinely awesome. I also had my neighbour's young lad helping in the yard for a bit of pocket money. Two birds, one stone. 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗶𝘁: The late-afternoon drink. Work stress is high, there are too many balls in the air, and it's bleeding into my sleep and my calm. My mission for the next two days is getting a few of those balls down on the ground. 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝘁: This week I've been noticing when I take on more than I can carry - for other people. I'm giving myself permission to protect my energy for my own path, and I've had some honest, kind conversations about that - some of it in my work life and some in my personal life - I guess that is learning takign charge of that People Pleaser Mask 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗮𝗺 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴: "I'm learning that my boundary-setting isn't selfish—it's essential. Dropping the People Pleaser Mask lets me stop overextending just to avoid discomfort or conflict, so I can finally clear the mental space I need for my own priorities." 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗹: Some solid wins, some tough bits, and a few important resets. 📊 Wellbeing Scores: 😊 Happiness: 7/10 ⚡ Energy: 5/10 🎯 Focus: 5/10 😌 Calmness: 4/10 🌙 Sleep Quality: 4/10 🔥 Motivation: 5/10 ⭐ Average: 5/10 ✅ Activities from yesterday: 🌙 Early Bedtime ☀️ Morning Sunlight 💧 Stayed Hydrated 🌿 Grounding 🚶 Walk 🏊 Swimming ☕ No Late Caffeine 🥦 Ate Vegetables ✨ Positive Mindset 🎯 Deep Work 📋 Planned Day 🌅 Focused Morning 🌄 No Screentime in Morning ⏱️ Time Blocking 🧠 Learning 🎨 Creative Work 🤝 Helped Someone 📞 Called Friend/Family 🍽️ No Phone at Dinner 👂 Active Listening 🌈 Creative Dopamine 👯💞 Connection - Tribe/BDub Buddies ☕ Coffee Cutoff by Midday 📵 Phone out of Bedroom 🐦‍ Flame - Community 🐕 Jaz Time 🦓🦓 Rock- Health/Wellbeing 🌷🌻 Gardening - Makeover

📅 Daily Check-in - October 8, 2026 💭 Reflection: "Yesterday my son ended up asking me to take my granddaughter to her cross country practice, so she spent a little time at my place before and after the practice. It was great to see her and spend some time. Also did some reading last night and enjoyed that a lot. Did that instead of screentime closer to bedtime. I'm still fighting revenge bedtime procrastination though. There's just so much I want to do and I guess since I have been running errands and going to appointments and driving my grandkids places and sitting for them, even though I enjoy the kids, all of that takes time and puts off the time when I can work on my certs and my art, etc. Things for me. I did wake up this morning and took the dog out and it was sunny, so we came back in and went on the porch/balcony and sat in the sun for about 15-20 minutes. I did at least 5 minutes of the breathing. The sky was pretty and somewhat interesting again so I ended up taking some photos to try to capture it. It was a very light blue close to the horizon and then it was sort of a gradient going up. No clouds. Just beautiful blue. I tried my hand at taking a couple of panoramic photos as well. So got some creative time in this morning as well. I originally was supposed to go to my granddaughter's track meet today and bring her home with me, but my son said I don't need to, that his girlfriend will get her. But she would still like me to come to her meet to see her run, so I am going to try to go. Doing some laundry this morning so I have something to wear. Ha ha. Planning to work on my art business class today and really should look at doing at least one certification for a Medicare carrier today." 📊 Wellbeing Scores: 😊 Happiness: 8/10 ⚡ Energy: 8/10 🎯 Focus: 8/10 😌 Calmness: 8/10 🌙 Sleep Quality: 6/10 🔥 Motivation: 9/10 ⭐ Average: 7.8/10 ✅ Activities from yesterday: ☀️ Morning Sunlight 💧 Stayed Hydrated 🌬️ Breathwork 🥗 Healthy Eating 🍺 No Alcohol ☕ No Late Caffeine

📅 Daily Check-in - October 6, 2026 💭 Reflection: "Saw my granddaughter at her track meet yesterday and saw my youngest grandson who was there with his parents, which was a really nice surprise! Unfortunately, my granddaughter and her parents are having issues and were not happy with each other. It was as beautiful day weather-wise, though, and I did take some photos of the surroundings as it may be a great thing to paint. Of course, I also got some pictures of my granddaughter and grandson, too. I spent some time with my grandson at a playground nearby after the race which was fun. He is 3 and a cutie-pie! Last night, went to the ceremony for the hospice patients including my mother-in-law. It was a beautiful and very touching ceremony. The church it was held in was gorgeous and it was all lit up with candlelight. I wasn't able to get a picture, but would have loved to. I had never been before, and want to go back to take some pictures also to use for my artwork. More importantly, it was nice to be with my husband's family and to celebrate my mother-in-law's life again. I do miss her. She was a wonderful woman. She would be proud and very happy that her 5 kids all text every morning and every evening and sometimes throughout the day. It's awesome they are all staying in touch. I think they text and talk more now than when Genevieve was here. We had a delicious dinner at an Italian restaurant afterwards - great food and even better company. This morning, I took our dog out and spent a couple minutes out in the sun in front of the apartment building, but then came back inside and went out on the porch/deck with our dog and sat for at least 10 minutes. It was nice and cool, but also sunny. Did some breathwork while I was out there, and listened to the birds. I forgot...yesterday I stopped at Hobby Lobby and got some watercolors, paintbrushes, and 2 watercolor books and a sketchbook. I can't wait to get to use them!" 📊 Wellbeing Scores: 😊 Happiness: 8/10 ⚡ Energy: 8/10
