Favorite Self

I like that FS can mean Future Self or Favorite Self.  FS is SHOWING UP lately -- I'm practicing lots of small things and it's adding up to a bigger picture of how I want to be.

Yesterday -- bookclub.  An extra person showed up so we were 4.  It was nice -- good conversation.  I made herbal peach tea and did a candy bar (no one ate the candy, but I had takers on the tea).  Perfectly easy, everyone on-time and it lasted 2 1/2 hours.  I used the wine glasses that came from Etsy just in time.  They're from the 1950s and I love them.  They have an amazing hold feel with the ball fringe bottom.  I had a pitcher of tea and used the glasses because why not?!?

I wore the new jumpsuit which is crazy comfortable, but a whole workout to go to the bathroom.  I probably won't wear it anywhere but someone's house since public bathrooms and jumpsuits aren't a great idea.

Picked up flowers for my neighbor as thank you and one for me too.  She really liked them -- the farm does a beautiful job.  This was only $20.

Biked a bit harder on the Peloton.  Still no where near where I was, but I don't want to push and have a set back.  Each time I ride, I test the water a little more.  Oura says I need a break today -- I haven't made out my calendar this week yet so I'm on the fence about a workout.  I'll have an active rest day (long walk) at least.  I think that's best since I have a lot of morning stuff to do -- it'll be hot and sunny by the time I'm ready to go.

Spanish presentation today.  I'm trying to not be nervous and it's sort of working.  There is NOTHING to be nervous about, yet here I am again.  I swear it's just old shadows from nursing school rearing it's head.  I keep telling myself THIS IS DIFFERENT.  

I did a BIG-ish FS thing yesterday that's set for tomorrow.  I'll save the details to chat about tomorrow -- little cliff hanger.

Lately, I enjoy a Monday.  Very different from my working days (!!)  Time to get organized for the week.  Hope you are off to a good start too.  Later gators.
