I don’t do well with limitations… especially self-imposed limitations.
Take tonight, for instance. I want to pay bills, file papers, plan menus, keep working on my Master List of things to do, do laundry, attend a meeting at church, attend a Girl Scout meeting, keep moving stuff up from downstairs, and keep working on the new craft room.
What am I actually going to do? Eat a handful of grapes and go to bed. I have been worn out ever since steroid day on Tuesday, and I know that I need to make a healthy choice and get extra sleep tonight. I ate half my lunch at lunchtime and the other half at 5:30 pm, so I don’t need anymore food. I just need the rest. It’s hard to reconcile that with my miles-long list of things that need doing, but I am going to make the healthy choice. Darn it.
Five things I am grateful for today:
- That my boy graciously went to the church meeting without me.
- A new food cart discovery at lunch.
- A new painting Mimi and Tom hung up in the office which replaced a print I really disliked.
- Getting some mail opened and sorted.
- Grapes, again.
- {Take good care of myself}: Walked to the bank instead of driving. Another no flour, no sugar day. Going to bed at 7 pm.
- {Make healthy, realistic choices}: Going to bed instead of being productive.
