Why is it that Monday, every week, is such a tough day? I think about it as the first portion of a hike, where you have to break in your shoes, find a pace, and assess the difficulty of the climb. Somehow, it seems that every Monday is like that. I reluctantly begin the "journey: planned for the week, assess the reality of accomplishing its goals, and start in on the work. In true trial and error fashion, nothing is smooth, but it usually settles into a workable plan.
Yesterday was the same. First day on the plans to create a new area in the store's closet where we can have card readings or "healing" interactions. Although we know the dimensions, the size and "feel" of the area will determine its best use. First, however, it needs to be cleared of all that is there. The large file, the off season flags, the extra garden things, packing materials- all gone now. The various "onesies" of inventory counted and logged in for new season's use. All cleared from top shelves by day's end. On Tuesday we tackle the bottom shelves and pull out/toss away all that isn't needed.
This morning, the "journey" is underway with a solid plan. I can move right into clearing and cleaning. No need to "break in" myself, I am ready for the work and the day's goals. Yes, Tuesday is so much easier than it's pioneering brother, Monday.
