How I did it
How to visit Scotland
It took me
1 year
It made me
Wee bit happy ;)

How I did it: My Mom made all the arrangements, I was along for the ride.  It was an incredible trip and while we got to do some amazing things, I want to go back and do more.  Attending the "Gathering," in Edinburgh was a definite highlight, but there was so much more.  The bus tour was great for a first time visit, but I think that next time & I really hope for a next time, I will wander on my own.  A mere two hours at Stirlin… Read how I did it…

How to create a new vision board to be revealed on Thanksgiving Eve
It took me
1 month
It made me
FOCUSED!!!

How I did it: I floundered around a bit when Sky first said we should do it again.  Then I realized that was my focus!  Once I knew what I wanted it was just a matter of finding what I wanted.  I print pics off the net so I dig for specific images that speak to me.Coping with my mental illnesses is a lot of my Vision Board's theme.  I found it hard to locate images that were positive to represent them.  I think that is a real t… Read how I did it…

How to get a betta
It took me
1 year
It made me
calm

How I did it: I started with researching what exactly was necessary to have a happy, healthy betta.   Then I found it was necessary to wait until I could actually implement setting up a safe environment. Read how I did it…

Packing...

Next week we go… Melbourne, Uluru, Cairns, Sydney, Christchurch, Mount Cook, Auckland and more… I feel like Bilbo setting off for the Lonely Mountain. It’s an adventure but I am a wee bit nervous and concerned that I packed a clean handkerchief…

Cordial Enemies

I have persevered & use the thing nightly. Does it help? Perhaps, I nap less. I wake up early every morning & rip it off & generally sleep anpther hour or two maskless. The best hours of sleep. I am dragging it across the world to Australia & New Zealand, next week. It should be grateful. The luggage weights are very limited, but it rides free because it is disability equipment. Annoying thing.
