Prep for a Johnnie-centric week

I looked back at the weekend posts and realized that I, in fact, got stuff accomplished and that I, in fact, successfully kept my vibration high for the most part of the weekend. Which would make it a pretty good weekend right? However when I woke up at 6 AM, my thoughts went to what I would be doing in an alternative reality? I have all this money in the bank... am I trading this time of the morning? Am I working on content for my YouTube channel? Am I taking a shower? Am I meditating more? Am I thinking up content to share to my legions of followers? That last one made me chuckle a bit. What did happen was that I did my image cycling exercise and I took an early shower and made myself breakfast.  A tomato, spinach, onion omelette. I forgot I had cheese! Still it felt good that I did that rather than get my breakfast at McDonald's. That would have been the lazy thing to do. And I was pretty motivated this morning. So much so I actually took a walk around the block. It was worth 3000 steps by 9 AM in the morning.  Anyway I got started with my work this week although compared to last week, this is almost a breather week for me. Especially when we all found out my boss Eloisa is quarantining for a couple of weeks because her husband tested positive for Covid. Johnnie and I are getting tested tomorrow. Hope that goes well. Anyway that would be only one of a few activities for Johnnie this week. He has picture taking at the school on Wednesday too and then the October month birthday parties, of which he is one of course. Not to mention the materials pick up day on Friday. Anyway maybe it was because I had a nice, fairly structured morning this morning, which included the Business Continuity Meeting. It felt like I got work done AND got my inner work done as well. I posted a pic of me making lunch... shaved beef fried rice Mmmm. And then I took another walk around the neighborhood. It was a nice, breezy day out. The Santa Anas have kicked up. It was one of those breezy days that made it not so warm out. It was cooler, but not quite cold just yet. I'm sure that's around the corner. I was aware I'm trying to enjoy the sun since it's going to be darker much earlier in a couple of days. And I even took a 20 minute power nap too. Maybe that's why I felt so good!

By the time it was time to pick up Johnnie I had already logged my full 11,000 steps, 80 active minutes, and 45 cardio minutes. The rest of the evening would be gravy exercise wise. I had also made Johnnie's penne pasta for his chicken noodle soup tonight too. I rolled up and mom and son were reading a book. Just like last Saturday. I think that is Lisa's go-to activity. with him since she can't go to anything digital or anything video-related. She looked tired. She did make it through the day but I could tell she was headed to bed really early. They must have had a late night last night at Joah's.  Which means Johnnie is going to have an early night as well. Still, first things first was his chicken McNuggets dinner and of course he immediately asked to see back episodes of Jurassic World Lego Dinosaurs Isla Nublar. I wonder what the attraction is for that particular series? The Lego characters? I mean those characters ARE pretty funny to be sure. And then I double checked to see if Lisa had finished her homework. I hate to double check her but you never know. She already told me they didn't get to EPIC reading all day today. Not so sure what they did exactly but the smell of vinegar permeated the sandbox. And Johnnie's pants. So I'm sure they were cleaning something. I know Johnnie he just wants to do stuff right next to his mom and that's fine. But I felt like I was rescuing him picking him up and starting my shift. Anyway I was so ahead of stuff I wanted to do I actually even started a couple of classes in the middle of the day today. One was a MindValley Masterclass on The Silva Ultramind system. The basic premise was how to get to altered states of mind in order to tap into other-than-conscious resources. That is actually the basis of achieving all I want of course. To clear the obstacles and beliefs of what is keeping me from getting what I want. And then internalizing the feeling of already getting it and being grateful for it. That's the proverbial Magic Grail isn't it? Easier said than mastered. Just like golf, it takes practice practice and practice. And I know I need to incorporate some of the methodologies to my daily routine. At the end of the day Johnnie and I ended up going to bed early. As in 9:30 early. I actually did manage to fall asleep that early. As did Johnnie. I knew he would. I sensed he had had a long weekend. And tomorrow is going to be a busy day.
