    Mostly did most of them.

    2 days sentimental, 2 days final reorg of fabric & art mediums 📸📸📦📦
    1day higher sat fat 🫀🫀🫀❌
    1 day no “actionable” art, but lots of pondering how to finish a piece 💭🎨🎨🎨

    Focusing on calories, steps, macro/micros, sleep, low stress

    Writing, Art & Decluttering will be back, but decided I had to get my weight back in the 150’s. Roughly 1-2 lbs left to go.

    Hi everyone! Here’s my November wrapup:

    I didn’t do as much picking up as I had intended, but that’s OK. I did get a new paper shredder and I put it to good use shredding documents that I had been saving until we could safely discard them.

    But my real progress this month has been in bringing more light into my life. I love my new light therapy lamp and use it twice a day. I notice a real energy boost as I sit next to the lamp first thing in the morning sipping my coffee. I now have a similar light at my office and I use it twice a day.

    I’m also bringing more light into my life by using BitGym in the evening. Now, when it’s pitch black outside in the late afternoon or early evening, I’ll take 20 or 30 minutes and cycle slowly on my elliptical while I get magically transported to someplace warm and sunny. With a large screen monitor and with headphones on, I really feel like I’m someplace else. Walking on the beach. Cycling through a sunny field. Or meandering along a stream. I love that I can use this app to get an extra dose of sunshine whenever I want.

    I will post the December challenge tomorrow night. I have really enjoyed our musical focus this month!

    Hope you are all doing well!

    —Denise

    November close out 🎵🎶🎵 💛

    Chorus has been back in rehearsals — in earnest for our Messiah performance for family only at the Cathedral next Tuesday. So much rehearsing and practicing alone. My voice was ready as I didn’t stop singing when rehearsals had to be halted — kept on singing every day during November during the song challenge. ♥️

    Sometimes my song choices made me so very sad and brought me to tears (many times). I think that sadness needed to come out. It has been such a stressful and anxious time. I am singing Carols every day now and watching more carefully how sad I am making myself. There is enough sadness — I don’t need to go looking for it.

    @jamcnewman I’m so glad that you have carols and Messiah practice to cheer you. I’m going to the Messiah sing-a -long with my daughters. They usually go with my sister, but she has moved to another state and can’t visit for the sing-a-long, so I get to enjoy it even though I’m not a musician.
