Imposter Syndrome

Procrastination is something that I am good at. I somehow had a hard time falling asleep last night and so slept in this morning. I started well with preparing for this weekend. I was hoping for adventure. Then I think imposter syndrome set in. I had a hard time finding and organizing things to take with me. I had a list and would forget to look at it. Other things would distract me. The result is that I left too late to go where I had hoped to go. That said, I did leave, not as prepared as I would like, and set off. Other happy things for today:

• I walked around a little outside before leaving and watered some plants and such.  I also saw a cool butterfly.

According to Lens it is a little wood satyr.

• Before looking at the weather, I was hoping for three new fire towers this weekend. The weather may be very rainy and include thunderstorms. That changed my plan to just two. Then I left too late and so I am hoping for one new fire tower visit tomorrow. However, I did have time to hike to the Oak Hill Fire Tower that I have visited before. The views, per usual, were lovely.

• While atop the tower a young man (maybe a teen) came up. He had ridden his bicycle to the top. It was his first time up there and seemed happy to have made the trek.
• Although not what I hoped for, so far I am safe and doing well.

Today I skipped reading my books, there were other things to do and I thought I would have time, but didn't.  I'm choosing to be okay with this.  

Thank you for being part of my happy things. Stay safe.
