Happy to have a Monday when I need not fret about work, for a change. ๐Ÿ˜… Well, this is it.. one day left in 2024. Amazing how the year just sped by too quickly. As for me, it's postcard day as I spent the day choosing postcards to send out. I'm glad I have quite a stash to choose from esp. since I have not added to my collection in a while. This is one hobby that I'm glad I took up 'coz it really makes me smile when I receive postcards. I used to send out more often, but lately I could only do so when I have long breaks (usually just once or twice a year).


Prompt A Day : Quote

"Mindfulness is about love and loving life. When you cultivate this love, it gives you clarity and compassion for life, and your actions happen in accordance with that." - Jon Kabat-Zinn

Shoutout to @shadowspub for the daily prompt.

Do you ever find yourself going on autopilot each day? I suppose some of us do as we go about our busy days. I do my best not to do that, as I prefer being mindful throughout my day. It's like having a purpose as I go about each day. I truly find that helpful and it leaves me feeling fulfilled at the end of the day. Time flies too quickly and sometimes there's the feeling that there isn't enough time to do everything I want to within the day. Yet a part of me is telling me that I'm supposed to take whatever time I have on hand and use it as wisely as I could -- even if it means putting off some tasks that can not be done today. A time for everything, and everything in its place. I need to be mindful as I have this schedule of doing certain things at a certain time of day. It's like my internal clock implementing a cutoff as to how much time to allot for tasks and for rest and relaxation. I guess that's my way of achieving balance and harmony each day. ๐Ÿ™โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’ก

As I was working on my postcards, I saw my postcards of Spy x Family that my daughter bought for me. I just realized I missed that series, so I did a marathon this evening. I got as far as nine episodes. ๐Ÿ˜‚ My daughter and I used to set aside time weekly to watch the newly released episodes then. Too bad the makers haven't released more episodes after the second season.

I actively work on these affiliate sites daily. I'm halfway to my $5 goal on LL. Ultimately I'd like to reach another payout level. I know that consistency is key.





I've got to turn in early tonight. I've got an appointment with my brother in the morning. We're set to pick up food items for tomorrow night's celebration. It's an annual tradition that we've set since Mom was still around. Well, that's it for me today. Tomorrow is another day. I'm letting all my worries go away. May you have a fantastic week. Wishing you all a happy new year! Nighty night from Manila. Ta-tah! ๐Ÿ‘‹

Sundowning

Sometimes, people with Alzheimerโ€™s or other forms of dementia, manifests symptoms like agitation, confusion or mood swings in the late afternoon or at early night (when the sun goes down). This phenomenon is termed sundowning!

In the early stage of Alzheimerโ€™s, the symptoms may not be apparent. However, as the disease advances, sundowning becomes more obvious slowly but surely! Almost all Alzehimerโ€™s patients will have sundowning to some extent! A person with a sundowning phenomenon may have a good day (less symptoms), or a bad day (more symptoms)!

Changes in the familiar surroundings (e.g. events where many people gather in the patientโ€™s room, noise), changes in the daily routines, physical illness (pain, infection, constipation, lack of sleep) etc are the triggering factors for sundowning symptoms.
