Speaking of themes ... Gretchen Rubin's latest podcast talks about choosing a WORD for the new year. I haven't listened to it yet, but she mentioned it was coming up and it's out now. I love that idea. I'm starting my set-up for all the fun new year stuff. I'm working on the vision board and doing some goal thinking this week.
January 15 marks the last of the life coaching. I've been doing it since June with the Whole30 coaching. I'm a little nervous to be on my own (sounds dramatic), but I need to see what that looks like for me. Life coaching is expensive and a luxury and I need to take that seriously.
I chatted with my bff yesterday and we opened our Christmas gifts together on the phone. My favorite gift was a Tea Forte mug and the most superb tea I've ever had - it's expensive. $44 for the container of loose tea leaves. She drinks it at her hair salon and bought the tea bags to have at home, but it didn't taste as good. Turns out the loose tea leaves are better. It has the best mild flavor and no caffeine. (I looked up the price because I wanted to send it to my PHB team -- they are all sending/sent gifts to the group. Too much $$$ to send for them though.)
The PHB group sent me a journal with my name (thanks, Darcie) and a bracelet with the question, "What would a healthy person do?" (thanks, Susan). I need to figure out something to send too. I think books - something selected for each of them individually. I have a couple of weeks before this ends to come up with an idea. Another "idea need" for my brainstorming session today (oh boy).

I want to go to boxing today, but I'm concerned it's the instructor with the leg-work, kick obsession. He seems to be substituting for a lot of the classes during the holidays. The class has another instructor listed, but all last week it ended up being him. He's listed on an earlier class, so I wonder ... My dang leg is a mess and I need to keep it rested. But I NEED A WORKOUT!!! I have an hour to decide. It's probably wiser to do some arms and abs at home for this week and get a true rest for my leg. UGH.
I also want to "treat" myself to a nitro coffee this week. Fortunately, it's a bit of a drive or I'd be all over it too frequently. It's the mother-load of caffeine. Maybe it can be a weekend treat. I need to go early or not at all.
Speaking of treats -- I need some motivation to get myself completely back on track. Some fun things that aren't expensive. A new book. A nitro coffee. That's all I've got so far. I think I have junk-food brain right now!! I'm going to spend some time brainstorming in my office today (with my new tea) and see what I can come up with for all my "idea" lists (goals, treats, word of the year). I might not get much further than drinking the tea with the way my brain is thinking this week.
Last little random thought today ... my bff recommended a series on Netflix. Call the Midwife. She hasn't watched it yet, but her friend said it makes her want to be a better person. Wow! I watched the first episode and I liked it a lot. I'm not feeling like being a better person yet (lol) but it was really good.
I lied - one more random thought. I started collecting quotes for my vision board. Here's one I like for today. Later gators.
