LET'S RELAX!

I have trouble sitting around relaxing.  Some people can simply hang out and enjoy the day with book in hand, reading.    If I get up, pick up that book and begin - my mind seems to wander.   The kitchen stove needs cleaned up after the bacon splattered all over the place.   I see a load of art work that got started without getting close to ending.   I must change up that Little Free Library as books are being taken and hopefully enjoyed.   

As I look at next month’s book club read, I start again.  FOCUS!   Oh, I have to put that laundry in the washer before going to the gym this afternoon.   It’s time for Spencer’s walk.   My concentration level is not working today.

I think I will go shopping to get needed items - air spray, vitamins, toothpaste.   And I love checking out the latest T.J. Maxx things.  Now there I could spend a whole day thinking how I could use those many different things, buy gifts - needing a present for someone’s birthday.   Then it is off to the Dollar Tree which always provides something I just absolutely need.

My whole point in rambling around about all of this is I need to slow down and READ!   Relax with the many books I have because of friend recommendations or  book club selections or hearing about a great read on television.  

Do I have ADHD?   Am I a hyperactive person?    Type A?   Maybe I need to pick up meditating to slow me down. 

​Whatever it is something needs to change!
