Better

I'm feeling more myself this morning.  My stomach is a little tender -- like it's been punched kind of thing.  I've already decided to stay until tomorrow though.  It's nice to have some quiet time.  (COVID test negative.)

My plan this morning is to ride the Peloton (I need a good sweat) and finish cleaning.  And then a shower because I surely need it.  Only did a wash of the nibbly bits last night -- a shower will feel great.

I might venture out for a tea or something if my stomach is feeling okay.  Of course, I might also be spent too and just get straight into jammies for the day.

Some of feeling better is off because I'm also super duper hormonal -- due any day and I hope it comes so I don't have to deal with it for the wedding.

FS is taking a bit of a break this week.  I need to stand back instead of power forward.  I have some bigger adventures coming up and it's starting to feel like pressure, not empowerment.  That's my cue to take a little break and regroup.  I'm also thinking about skipping Spanish this week (eek -- I haven't opened the new lesson once).

I love when I'm adventuring into FS territory -- it feels so good ... mostly.  I think some of this retreat feeling is hormonal.  I'm going to listen this time.  If I push too much, I tend to have a big fall in response. This time, I'm stepping back a bit to see if that's enough to regroup instead of taking a fall.

As far as the weekend, I had a mix of FS stuff.  I paced myself well.  Slept okay.  Ate okay.  Did a little drinking but nothing to regret.  Where I fell short -- Spanish studying (none), veggies (very little) and Monday I didn't ride the Peloton as planned.  None of that is a big deal, but they were all things I planned to do and didn't FOR NO REASON.  If I had been too busy or tired or something changed, no big deal.  I didn't do those things out of a lazy attitude.  And I know it.  Also another sign it's not feeling good right now.

I finished this ... it was okay.  Fast read, nothing amazing though.

Started this ... lender from my aunt.  Historical fiction about Hemingway's wife.

Just went to put out the trash and THIS ... mama and baby picking all the cans.  Everything is automated so you need to release bear straps on trash day.  They are changing over to cans with a sensor but it's expensive and slow rolling so far.  (Not sure if these videos will load ...)

Here's hoping for a good day all around.  Feels like a Monday to me.  Later gators.
