The beach today. Warmish, not much wind. So perfect for me to do the .59 of a mile up the Path of Doom and back.
Before I went I did a list. Writing stuff down really helps. Instead of it churning around in your brain and things pinging in that you havent done, all becomes calm. Honestly. So I could then swan off and walk.
To the left of the beach by the rocks Oystercatchers. Most having their Siesta
Something about birds legs attracts me, which is a bit worrying. But the DP always says to me when I am asking about an id on a bird, is "What colour were its legs?" This is a Redshank. (Red legs ha ha.)
The list I made was all about stuff both I and the DP have to do both personally, like flu jab, for us both, cholesterol check for him, I refuse to have any more. The vet for the cats jabs. Then the massive list for us both for the FASE 4 exhibition. But seeing it in a list makes it more manageable and I have ticked about five things already. (Out of 30.....)
So. When stressed make a list. And watch birds. And go to the beach. Or anywhere which is away from making lists.

I do agressie with you: making a list makes everythink more manageble. It clears your mind (and I love crossing things off) then I go for a walk. And walking clears the mind too and somehow a solution for a problem presents itself out of the blue. Love your bird pictures!
Beautiful.
Making a list - checking it twice.
Sounds like you're preparing for something 😊
You do sound in a better frame of mind - once this next 'show' is over and done with you'll be able to live life peacefully again ~ Cathy
Lying in bed trying to fall asleep is my worst time for things churning around in my brain. Maybe I should keep a notepad by the bed.......?
Walking and watching nature is a stress buster for me too.
Flu jab was crossed off my list today and I proudly sport my 'I've been brave today' sticker.
