Back to HEALTHY

I hope - fingers crossed.  The weekend is over.  Back to the business of feeling good, being healthy, having energy, etc, etc, etc.

BTW - brunch from the kids was amazing!  I'm glad I didn't restrict.  Homemade cinnamon pancakes (best I've ever had), bacon, eggs, champagne, fruit with cool whip, sweet rolls, toast -- WOW!!  They did a great job and I ate everything joyfully.  I kept with my intention and enjoyed the day.

This week is oddly full of tasks to get finished.  I'm not sure why it feels so overwhelming to me.  Maybe because my energy is low from all the indulging.  It must be some sort of mood, because even the massage and nail appointment today feels too much.  I have a number of contractor appointments lingering and that just takes up so much time in my schedule. Plus my pants don't fit (most of them) and that puts me in a crappy mood - always!

Best cure - a good workout and getting busy getting busy!  The more I finish, the better I'll feel.  (Sheets in the washer, two weeks of doggie doodie picked up & out for trash day and emails returned -- all before the am drinks ... I'm trying!)

I MUST get to the grocery store today - at least one of them.  We are at slim picking levels and that's never good for making good choices.  I have the Food Saver on the counter begging to be used!  Hopefully, by week's end I'll have a freezer full of good choices.  I planned to fill the freezer before we left, but the sweet pup's recovery changed that plan.  I'm excited about trying the Food Saver, but since it's new to me, it feels like another thing on my list.  Wow - this IS a mood.  I need to fix it soon.  My massage needs to be relaxing, not a head spinning worry session.

As I'm sitting here typing and thinking, maybe I need to break my to-do list down to a daily one.  I made a list for this week (it's daunting) and maybe that's why I feel so overwhelmed.  One day at a time.  And I love a good list to scratch off to completion.

Now I'm itching to get at that list so I'll say so long for now.  Maybe I'll be back for a witching hour check-in.  Journalling works for me.  It took me years to finally commit to it.  Now for that darn meditation thing!  I'll give it a try during the massage today.

My INTENTION today is to PACE MYSELF.  Rome wasn't built in a day.  (I have tons of these -- drove hubby nuts -- lol!)  Later gators.
