Morning!!

A little breakfast, make lunch, walk the dog and then off to work. One more opportunity to shine!!

Note to self. Do not buy Wonderful Pistachio's. I did well yesterday except for consuming nearly the entire bag of shelled pistachio's. They were tasty ... they were salty ... up fluct this morning, no doubt related to my nut feast last night.

However, I am feeling stronger and more attractive these days then I have in several months. The workouts are paying off. I am more positive. Perhaps the longer days are helping too. It is nice to drive home at least part way in light.

I do have a busy day ahead. Three visits in a row beginning at 10 am ending at 3 pm with a fair amount of driving involved. The day will pass very quickly!! Yesterday only involved one visit but included staff meeting and a ton of office work. It too was a busy day. Friday will be here before I can blink I think!

Grateful ... I was grateful yesterday too just never had time to add it to my journal ...

1. Grateful for feeling my body work as I exercise
2. Grateful for the lengthening days
3. Grateful for the enthusiasm my co-workers expressed about beginning a reflective supervision group
4. Grateful for collaborations between my colleagues
5. Grateful for the joy my special buddy is feeling these days (long deserved and overdue!!!)
6. Grateful for good hair days
7. Grateful for remembering and allowing myself to feel attractive
8. Grateful for the little babies who are growing in our buddies here on fatsecret
9. Grateful for my upcoming vacation
10. Grateful for my life ... challenging as it is at times I have so much to be grateful for!!!

So ... off I must go into the wild blue yonder. Well okay, no blue this morning, how about the wild cloudy yonder? Ever mindful that I must indeed practice kindness towards myself because it does NOT come naturally to me!!! Oh no, self recrimination, criticism, and regret is what comes naturally to me!! Really!! I would NEVER lie to you all!! But with practice comes peace, contentment, patience, and joy that at a younger stage of my life I didn't realize was possible for me. Forgiveness of myself as a fallible creature and realizing that really, this is all "practice" ... there is no test, there really is no such thing as "failure", I am a work in progress, it is a journey, and I ... will never be "done." Pondering those things, soaking it in gives me the ability to breathe. Gives me the space to feel joy, silliness, laughter, and so much more!!

Have a wonderful day full of kindness, mindfulness, patience with yourself and joy. Take care buddies!!
