Feel great today, not sure what to pin it on.
Could it be because I have consciously taken on a positive approach to things?
I decided last night I am not going to allow things or people to make me angry because it is only me that suffers in the end (Well me and Brendon, as I end up taking my frustrations out on him).
Could it be because I know in my heart I did a great yoga class last night?
I destributed my energy evenly throughout the class and despite the abnormally crowded room and what felt like a much higher temperature I managed to only sit out for one set of one pose. I feel so proud of myself for doing this challenge and so determined to do it to the end, this is going to be so good for my confidence I can just feel it.
Could it be because last night I managed to get all my housework done and the house looking good before I went to class which left me a whole hour of bliss to moisturise in front of the telly (my one single girl behavioural habit I still enjoy from time to time) before bed?
Could it be because last night Brendon and I had spontaneous sex, instigated by him, which is something I don't see alot of since he gained weight and his confidence has dropped?
Could it be because Brendon is ok for me to have my sleepover with Jess at the end of the month and I am now pretty excited about it?
Could it be because, all things ok'd and boxes ticked it looks like I am going to my first bush doof this year next month, Royal Doof - it's smaller than rainbow and maitreya but looks just as fun. Cold weather means lots of mud to shuffle and stamp bare foot in!
Could it be because last night I was able to get creative with dinner and cooked a delicious, witchy, homeopathic meal that we both thoroughly enjoyed?
What started off as lamb cutlets ended up being lamb cutlets in a lavender and seed crust (for relaxation) with a puree of pumpkin and cauliflower spiced with coriander and ginger (for cold season, I plan to make alot of things with these spices during the winter months). I loved it and better yet Brendon loved it too. He loved the lamb (wanted more, sadly I only allocated 2 cutlets each) and the mash, he thought it was potato! I know Ive done well when I can disguise other veges as potato successfully. tonight is another new favourite, beef schnitzels in a white parsley sauce with steamed asparagus and contemplating steamed, herbed potatoes? Maybe just one potato between each of us, we don't eat alot of carbs anymore and I'd like to keep it that way but a little bit here and there can't hurt and if it stops us mindlessly snacking on the mountain of chocolate in the house after dinner then whatever! I bought brown rice the other day which we are both thoroughly enjoying as a substitute for white.
It's probably all these things rolled into one, I just cannot fathom getting angry today. Even at Mr.Annoying Whistler at work when he insisted on discussing how he killed a rat last night by hand, in my office (not discussed with me, just had a conversation about this with another guy whilest standing in my doorway. He does this alot and often it is subjects like this that I'd rather not hear about). Off to get the mail for work then have abit of scanning and linking today, not rushing myself through things, the woolworths work is starting to thin out, today having just now finished the last piece of backlogged work ever! Now all I have to focus on is jobs as they come in and a few folders of jobs missing p/os and MAs etc....won't take me long to catch up, probably by the end of the month so Im enjoying being able to relax a little.
