I had another good coaching call yesterday. We spent some time talking strategies about this full week leading into a weekend of challenging company. The timing is the biggest issue -- this week was already scheduled for me (tickets to events and my youngest's b-day) so I couldn't change to give myself social downtime before I need to be "on" for company. I'm still a bit bitter about selective memory when it came to my boundaries about this visit. I was ignored and I'm still upset about it.
Every night I'm up way later than normal this week and it's messing with my sleep. Add in a lots of social stuff and very little alone time -- recipe for a mini breakdown LOL. I fantasize about hiding in my closet for the day.
My goals for this time are to ENJOY the fun things I get to do, grab alone time when I can and plan a BIG recovery next week. It took a long time to acknowledge my introverted-ness (because I like to be social too) and even longer to understand it's okay to NEED space and recovery.
The rest of the coaching call was about forward goals and winks from the Universe about being on the right path. Interesting and fun conversation. Still working a lot out in my head and sharing would sound like a storm of crazy confusion -- because it still is nothing but confusion.
Dinner with the family was a lot of fun yesterday. We celebrated and laughed and ATE -- my pants hate me.
Today was supposed to be a hike (too icy with the wet leaves), then it was morning coffee (changed because she has a contractor coming) and now it's lunch. Prepare yourself, Pants ... more eating (we tried for a hike -- does that count?)
Tonight, hubby and I go to see Gretchen Rubin. We have the nose-bleed seats -- no VIP tonight. Should be fun, but I need to get out of my head about being out late AGAIN tonight. I won't have an early night until Monday (and Tuesday is another late night). Then it's smooth sailing and my complaining will stop (or switch to something else LOL). I don't want to wish away this week (but you know I kind of am wishing it away).
Rosa is NOT adjusting yet. Poor girl. She's super scared and shy. I spoke too soon about her loving her crate -- not so much anymore. We'll keep loving her and hope she brightens up.

It's 8 o'clock. I've been up for two hours and I want to go back to bed in the worst way. Not a great sign. I wish I could effectively nap -- not in my DNA, I guess.
I forgot to take pictures of my holiday pillows. Coming soon when I remember :)
Not much reading happening this week -- maybe a little when I get my nails done tomorrow. A friend recommended the show "I'm Sorry" on Netflix. I know nothing about it, but will check it out next week. I'm totally dreaming of next week ...
Have a great day -- later gators.
