I had a terrific day today.
My house sits on 20 acres of woodland, so it normally requires a lot of maintenance. But this last winter was particularly bad, and I have more cleanup work than the previous 4 winters combined. It’s a bit overwhelming honestly, it’s probably 3 months worth of weekends. I’ve been procrastinating all month about starting the cleanup.
I’m only running 2 subs this cycle, so it was easy to slot this one in as well. I ran 1 loop this morning and didn’t feel much at first, but after an hour or so I felt a mild push to do something so I went out and started on some minor tasks. But the more I worked the more motivated and energized I felt, and I started tackling larger and harder jobs. Also, in the past if a major hurdle came up I’d push it off until another day, but today when one came up I started working on it immediately, and when I finished I got back to the cleanup work without hesitation. It generally just felt really enjoyable.
And now that I’ve finished the outdoor work for the day, I keep finding stuff to do inside. Very nice.
Ok it’s just the first loop, but it’s a great start.
