This last month has been somewhat stressful and challenging. There are so many changes that I have to take on board.
Each weekend for the last 8 years I have been up early (sometimes really early) and filled the weekend to the brim.
This weekend I actually managed to stay in bed until 8.30. Just having done that makes me feel so good. My brain is still working overtime but in a positive way.
So I want to continue in this way being able to take time out from Cruse and do stuff for me.
Today I am meeting Sam for lunch. We natter for a couple of hours or so and then do a little retail therapy in the craft shop.
Tomorrow I will catch up with Julie who I haven't seen for two weeks. My daughter is so like her mother and works far too hard.
I have a strange (unfamiliar) relaxed feeling today and I want it to continue.
I think I have been looking at the "change what you can and accept what you can't" mantra.
I would like to live by this every day but small steps are good so I will enjoy today.
For 43 years my personal mantra has been " quiet acceptance" and it has got me this far.
I need to get back there where it is safe...........................
I hope you can nurture that relaxed feeling love, you should be getting lots of it when you can.
