Good Morning. Today is just another day in paradise as my husband and Info (no not the same person) often say!!! LOL!!
Yesterday's nutritional intake was much healthier than the day before. It wasn't a struggle either. I was full and satisfied. Monday night's indulgence felt overwhelming. I am fairly certain it felt that way because I was anxious and off balance as I ate. Typically when I indulge it is a clear and conscious choice and very enjoyable. Monday night I did not really enjoy. Interesting opportunity to reflect on my own process.
Today is yet another opportunity to shine!! LOL!!! Well, I don't know if I'll 'shine' or not but it is another opportunity. Wednesday and work. WW. Okay so I'm in a strange mood!!
We have a resident doe on our property. We see her almost every day. I was on the back porch this morning, sipping my first cup of coffee and there she was ... not far from the house, munching away on some wild grass. She watched me and kept chewing ... not frightened at all. We have white-tail deer and when they are startled their tails go straight up. Hers remained relaxed. She finished her bite and then sauntered off leisurely to find her next bite of grassy breakfast. Of course she drives Blue, our dog, wild. He so wants to chase her and play with her but of course he is not permitted!!
Today I am grateful for ...
1. taking the chance of opening my heart to my daughter even though I am fairly nervous about re-establishing a relationship with her ...
2. being able to talk through something with my husband ... smoothly, easily, and with resolution ...
3. having a much more balanced day on the nutritional front yesterday ...
4. all the thoughtful comments and encouragement on my journal yesterday ...
5. being able to step on the scale ... see the number ... and take it in stride!!!
Have a good day!!! Those of us that struggle with being kind to ourselves ... let's make a special effort today!! Let's find at least one thing we truly like about ourselves and take the time to feel good about that characteristic (be it internal or external). Let us remember that this is NOT a race, there really is NO HURRY, life is process not product and we will NEVER be "done" ... until we are no longer sucking breath!!! Take care my good friends!!! Thank you for your kind support of me!!

Hmm. I think I have a resident mamma mouse living in my radiator. One is squeaking like mad right now and my dogs are just sitting on the couch doing nothing! My son just threw some stuff down between the grates and someone is squeaking away. Obviously I don't want mice in my apartment but I hate to think a little baby one is hurt and squeaking for its mamma. It won't stop! Anyway. Sorry. Glad you're feeling better. I am sincerely hoping you don't end up getting hurt by your daughter again, but I'm hopeful that you will be able to have a closer relationship. Thanks for the kindness reminder.

I'm glad that you are having a good day Moose! We see deer in our back woods quite often here in Pennsylvania but they are startled and do run when they notice us. You must have a calmer presence than we do! Lol.

Good Morning Moose, when I am feeling good about myself I'm always in a strange mood but that is one of the things I like about myself. I am a dork! How about this one? I am an internal, external, eternal OPTIMIST!
I am sending positive best wishes to you and your daughter. It is easier to love a newborn baby, dog, doe, etc. Loving someone who hurts or upsets us demonstrates a true capacity for love. Unfortunantly, some people we love are hard to love because it hurts and are often the ones who need our love the most. Yep, (sigh) Open your heart and keep strong and aware so you do not get hurt:)TOWANDA!!!

We have dear around us too, but you never really see them to much - I did see one walking on the beach once... think they were a little lost! You had your mess up, and your owning it - good for you! Your not letting it go on and on for days, thats great. Keep up the good work lady!!!

I think you are making the right decision regarding your daughter. People can change and by opening your heart up you are giving her the opportunity to show you she has. It could be a wonderful thing. On the other hand as we all know it could be opening you up to more hurt. Either way you will have tried and know in your hear you did the right thing. I am hoping that this all works out for you. It is scary putting our hearts out there but if there is a small chance that it will be good..take it or you will be thinking about it and wondering.

It seems that even Paradise has storm clouds in the sky.

hahaha Love your info comment!
your back porch sounds peaceful.... you must reflect on that during the middle of the day huh? hahahaha
I know what you mean about making a concious choice to indulge vs not really thinking abotu it- what a difference that makes in how we feel about it huh/
well moose have a great day- by the way i have been meaning to ask you- what is the meaning behind "madaboutmoose"???

I like moose. They are large, ominous creatures and yet have incredible ability to move!! We see moose on our property and I have always found them fascinating. Don't know if you remember the television show Mad About You I think it was called ... so I stole the 'mad about' part and just added on moose!!

We have a resident Roe deer but its evidently a little more wary than yours because if it spots you it stands stock still, not even an ear or a nyscle twitching and if you didn't know it was there it would be hard to see. Not sure whether its a he or she as the grass covers the relevant bits. May the storm clouds blow over and away.

Hi, Moose! Glad to hear that you are beyond the peach cobbler (yum, by the way!) and that your problems have a good chance of being resolved without more food!

Hiya, buddy! Did I miss the peach cobbler? That's what I get for being a stranger. :) Good luck with your daughter! Loved reading about your deer. I love seeing them at the lake, especially when they don't see me first and I can just stop and enjoy their presence.
