Apologies if I confused anyone!!
"Today something wonderful will happen to me" is the attitude I am adopting ... with each new morning.
Yesterday the scale was not favorable to me ... and I simply decided rather than yakking about it I would say to myself "Today something wonderful will happen to me" until it started to sink in ... that I am in control here ... and I am on a journey ... and while I was not thrilled with the apparent "lack" of progress ... I am progressing.
How's that for confusing???
Today, so far, I have exercised, changed the sheets on the bed, did the dishes, scrubbed the top of the stove, caught our budget up to date and paid a few bills, showered, I think that is it. Bob had to work today. It has been nice to be home alone. It hardly ever happens. Oh and I slept in!!! Didn't get out of bed until 7:30 this morning!! Yes, that IS sleeping in ... during the work week I'm up at 3:45 am. I know. Much too early for humans.
Bob and I have some "work" to do here at home, tonight and tomorrow. I'll do laundry either tonight or tomorrow. Perhaps schedule in a grocery store run on the way to our friend's for a BBQ. Looks like steak, salad (which I'll make), fresh corn on the cob, and french bread is what is on the menu. We stood up for these friends, 4 years ago, at the courthouse for their marriage (they've been together almost 20 years!!!) and so this is their anniversary BBQ. The weather is really nice. I'm sure we'll have a lovely time.
I continue to read Maximum Achievement and continue to work on my inner self. Eventually ... my outer self will catch up!! I am grateful for ...
1. a day at home alone
2. sleeping well
3. believing in possibilities
4. blue skies
5. a few "to do's" checked off my list
And so ... I like myself!! I love my body. I crave healthy foods and am satisfied with healthy foods. I weigh 180 lbs. I am long and lean. I am strong and tall. I am an expert in my field. People pay me for my expertise. I have a successful consulting business in infant mental health services and reflective practice. I am organized and efficient. I am financially stable, earning $100,000.00 a year. I have enough money saved for a vacation in February 2012 in Mexico. I plan well and follow through. Our wood shed is full. I take care of myself. I am kind to myself.
Life goes on. I am learning a lot about myself. I have been surprised to become aware of just how "negative" I often am. I thought I was the positive one! I have a lot to do, a lot on my plate, pacing myself is important. I allow myself to become too easily overwhelmed. That is one of the sneaky "negatives" I have.
I hope the weekend is treating you all well!! Take care!!
