When Wishing Won't Do It........

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Referral Group Incorporated

Life is complicated now. We are living through uncharted times today, but we are living. I miss so many who are no longer here. Perspective is important. So I have found things to do that were never high on my list. I have been reorganizing my home and reading rainy day books. It's a job and I need to be busy.

I have learned that when wishing won't do it, action is required. I started by making a list of things I would like to see accomplished in this down time. When I have another thought, I write it down. So my agenda is different now but it is important. Solitude is a good thing but isolation is rough. I am learning to entertain myself and not worry too much about things I can not control. When wishing won't do it.....action does. Enjoy your day.

Sheila,

Some things around here remain to be organized, not many however.  One of our clients is keeping us busy working on their marketing campaign.  Wishing you a fun day, and I may get to more weeds before it rains today.  A

Hi Sheila, Happy Sunday. I'm sorry you feel isolated. Hopefully,  you have some good friends to connect with on a daily basis. I have been attacking weeds every day. :)

Staying active has many benefits, including distracting us from not-so-upbeat things. I ordered wild flower seeds yesterday. There's a section of my property where colorful flowers, bees and butterflies would be great!

Hi Sheila,
I think this is a particularly difficult time for single people because there is no one to share our thoughts and anxieties with and to help us make decisions.  There is online and by phone, of course, but it's not the same.

That said, I'm content for now.

Hi Carol. That is absolutely true and I share your thinking. Fortunately, I have my gang of rescue dogs. Maybe you can foster a dog or cat for company and save the animal from neglect or worse.     Sheila

I have a plan to work on projects around my home, while using this downtime.  It may be one of the silver linings.

Hi Sheila:

I think having things to do at home  - cleaning, organizing, throwing out - and staying in touch with others in whatever way we can is important right now.

Hi Sheila Anderson 

Focusing on an activity keeps our minds off the things we can't control.
