Project 50 - Day 14 (Fail and Redo)

Saturday, I failed at getting everything done for this challenge. I completed my morning routine and crocheting, but my reading and exercise goals went out the window. I procrastinated a lot of the day away then went to see Les Miserables with my friend at a dinner theater. Between dinner and the play, it didn't get out until after 10:30. I could have finished all my goals before I went out, but i didn't. Side note: when I was married to my first husband, one time I went to a play date in the middle of the day and left folded clothes on the couch. I got home a bit after he got home from work and was chastised for not finishing my chores before I went out with my friends. On the other hand, I left Saturday with clothes in the dryer and Chad's clothes folded for him to put away. Chad folded that last load of laundry for me without me having to ask or anything said by him other than to inquire if I had fun. This bounced around in my head all day yesterday. What a difference it makes to be married to someone who lifts me up.

Yesterday, I decided I was going to redo day 14 of this challenge. I hate challenges that make people start over when they fail. That's a big reason I don't finish most of the challenges I start. My morning routine was just interrupted by a call from my daughter while she was getting ready for church. I always answer her calls when it's possible. I love that she wants to talk to me. So my morning routine was shortened considerably, but for a good reason. I read a chapter that was 10 pages in Eleanor Roosevelt's autobiography about her second trip to the USSR. It is so interesting to read these firsthand accounts and impressions of countries like this. I did an hour in the Gazelle while watching a movie with Chad and crocheted for the second half of the movie while he was on the Gazelle. It was a satisfying day. I'm almost done with my book which makes me a bit sad. Hopefully, I will learn from the next one as well.
