Transition Sunday, but after a "I really want to eat" Saturday, which I'm curious about. We had really nothing going on, so I went to my spinning class -- a marathon 60 minute class -- ran some errands, did some bookkeeping & struggled with cravings in the afternoon. I thought it was fatigue, so I took a nap, had a snack & went on to mass and then dinner out with DH. The cravings continued after dinner, so I tried to satisfy them with my carob & nuts -- more than I truly needed to satisfy my hunger, but not a mindless binge -- but it was a battle most of the night even though DH & I watched a movie (Homefront -- intense, but not a fav for me). The day had certainly had its moments as DH attempted to download photos from his camera to our computers & iPads, which didn't go well & he was irritable at times. I was also bored & frustrated at times with the never-ending bookkeeping, but it is my job & I choose to "play" quite a bit during the week so I have to do some on the weekends -- this one, in particular, as I'm in between traveling weekends. So, I'll continue to be curious about if like I found while skiing in Utah, too much downtime can be as difficult as too little. I'm also curious if after the hard workout, my body just needed more nourishment as well.
But today is a new day & I am actively armed with my 5P's (Pause, Plate, Progress not Perfection & Prayer) and 3C's (Curious, Calm and in Charge) as I make my way through my Transition Sunday. I'm off this morning to boot camp, more household stuff & book work this afternoon but will again make time to meditate & nap, then dinner tonight with DH. Hopefully the cravings are a thing of the past, but if the re-appear, I'm armed & ready, and especially will stay Curious & mindful, Calm & in Charge. And to start again in the right way, I'll Pray --
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next. Amen.
And I'll continue praying, breathing, logging, journaling & expressing my way through this one day and each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion. I'm so grateful for each of special you, my family & IRL friends, a new day & another fresh start, colder temps agains :( but with the end in sight as they quickly warm over the next few days, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox
