I want to list here the things that will make up a good life for me in my "new life" which includes being a full-time caregiver for my mom. I will check them off once they seem to be a part of the pattern. (10/28....goodness, not much progress on my list to be honest...all the renovation and building has rather taken over our lives, but I have been adding tiny layer to tiny layer in my learning of the art of routine)

• ✔ 8 minutes in the morning every morning
• walks through the woods and fields a few times a week
• a home-keeping routine (have decided the Fridays will be house cleaning day, the rest to come...)
• a quiet time everyday
• finding a blogging routine
• gear up for starting Healthy Bread in 5 minutes a day
• a well-stocked pantry for all the wholesome cooking adventures ahead
• time daily or some-number-of-times-weekly to read my beautiful magazines and clip and paste and journal
• ..more to come....
