Productive

I’m currently feeling:Doing. My thoughts creating this feeling:Today, I’ve decided is a day of doing. Ringing this morning. Ironing when we get home. I may try to do another Joe Wicks workout even though I can still barely walk after the one I did two days ago. Lunch. More ringing. Another go at another quarterContinue reading “Productive”

Peaceful

I’m currently feeling:Hopeful. My thoughts creating this feeling:We have a re-run of Tuesday’s quarter/not quarter this morning. I know C has sent through some guidance but I don’t know if that’s been passed on or how well received it was. I hope the young conductor has come up with a true composition this time andContinue reading “Peaceful”

Stacked

I’m currently feeling:Glowing. My thoughts creating this feeling:Feeling that afterglow of happy hormones you get when you’ve smashed your day. Despite C being grumpy until about late afternoon for no apparent reason, my day was brilliant. It probably helped he was grumpy actually, as it meant I could legitimately ignore him and get on withContinue reading “Stacked”

Proficient

I’m currently feeling:Indignant. My thoughts creating this feeling:Owed better, undeserving of an adverse situation. I have today off work. C knew that. I reminded him of it last night too. This morning the 6am alarm went off. He’s in charge of alarms as its on his side of the bed. That aside, I didn’t rushContinue reading “Proficient”

Calm

I’m currently feeling:Defiant. My thoughts creating this feeling:We went ringing last night to help a younger ringer with a quarter peal in 4 methods he was attempting to call for the first time. We rang for the requisite amount of time with an appropriate number of changes, however rounds featured multiple times when it shouldn’tContinue reading “Calm”

Redeemed

I’m currently feeling:Fabulous. My thoughts creating this feeling:Felt good yesterday to achieve several outstanding tasks at work and know I didn’t have a full schedule when I got home. I signed up to a free 3 month Joe Wicks health app that gradually introduces more exercise and helps define some nutritious meals that go withContinue reading “Redeemed”

Optimised

I’m currently feeling:Classic. My thoughts creating this feeling:Something my favourite style and lifestyle coach posted yesterday resonated with meas I was thinking about outfits for the work week ahead. “What are your style standards? ” The set of operating principles that make decisions easier about what you wear, now you carry yourself and how youContinue reading “Optimised”

Successful

I’m currently feeling:Relaxed. My thoughts creating this feeling:Finished reading Atomic Habits yesterday and jotted down a few key points its worth holding in mind: 1) improve 1% everyday, 2) don’t miss a beat – if you do get back to it asap, 3) to make good habits stick they need to be obvious, attractive, easyContinue reading “Successful”

Measured

I’m currently feeling:Accomplished. My thoughts creating this feeling:Great meeting yesterday morning with James. Easy plans to help his event go well. Reading time during the afternoon, then bashed out emails and completely cleared one email box. Am trying to take notice and put into practice the ideas I’m learning from Atomic Habits by James Clear.Continue reading “Measured”

My thoughts creating this feeling:I have a meeting today with our Director of Music as he wants our help with a visiting delegation from the Cathedral Choirs Association. He has he come up with a weeks worth of activities for them and ve discussed some time ago about them coming up toContinue reading “Prepared”
