Worst deep sleep to date. Dang. I stayed up finishing The Measure and had cramps so maybe the combination???
The Measure was interesting and a very quick read. I'd give it a B+ ... maybe an A- for being fast and original. Next up: recommendation from a friend -- she loved it. Looks like another fast read. I need to get those numbers down lol.
Speaking of books ... I'm hosting bookclub this month. I offered, but said that I might not live centrally enough and thought a restaurant patio might be an option. Nope -- people said the distance wasn't an issue. We'll see on the day though -- always cancelations. I'm looking forward to it -- assuming someone shows up!
I took the SCS coaching call in the car and it was fine. Good to know that's an option. We chatted about relationships AGAIN (it's what's for dinner these days). I don't want my "generosity" to be a response to someone else giving or NOT giving to me. It's tough when it feels like a pattern of one-sidedness. I don't want to withhold kindness out of spite and I don't want to be generous with resentment. Big order for coaching, but I'm slowly chipping away. Lots of childhood patterning to undo.
Take-away this time -- I'm not giving any credit to the times I show up as I want to, I'm only focusing on when it doesn't go well. Far more good than not good. Also, I try to "understand" why someone is acting the way I don't like, but I don't do the same for me. Why am I feeling this way? Where can I have understanding for myself given my situation and history.
It's a process.
The rest of the week is a bag of nothing. I actually don't have "something" until next Tuesday. I'm going to keep it this way for the week (maybe look for something this weekend). My monthly and a couple of full weeks have put me out of the mood to socialize. I plan to focus on routine and a bunch of house chores. Regrouping.
I rode the Peloton for 15 very easy minutes after "yoga" and NO BACK ISSUES. This is the first time not an ache to be found. Progress, but I need to keep it super slow. Today is a walk/jog outside, but it's raining all morning and I have a heavy monthly. I might make an adjustment. I'll give it a couple of hours before I call it.
Pretty boring hibernation day -- sheets and watering indoor plants today. Both are low on my happy chore list, but high on the DONE list. Remember -- eat the frog first. I'll have both finished this morning.
Have a good day. Later gators.
