Lots on my mind. Some good, some sad. But I will say that I'm generally in a good place right now. I think it also helped that I spent my afternoon resting on my couch. That's unusual these days, so I'm savoring the moment.
I have about 3 entries I'd want to write about, but very little motivation.
The 11-week nutritional challenge is going well. My cheat days are getting more extensive, so I need to chill a bit. I'm definitely learning about self-control through this exercise, so I'm happy about that. I just hope that that part sustains itself because I really don't need to be eating everything I see/want. The "one cheat day a week" aspect has been really good, because it allows me to appreciate the cheats.
I had a raisin bagel, egg, cheese, and bacon for breakfast on my cheat day. I don't even eat bagels like that, but that was sooo good. And I had cookie dough ice cream with hot fudge. Also very delightful. It was more than I needed (even though it was one scoop), but delightful. Randomness, the men at the ice cream parlor were from Sudan.
Anyway, what's going on in my life? Same old, I guess. But I'd say that I'm truly in a place of peace. Definitely thanking God for that. I'm also at a place spiritually where I need to make some serious decisions about my obedience to God. I made the decision recently (or rather, I took up the challenge) to read the Bible in its entirety. I anticipate that it will be life-altering; I've already seen/experienced some great things from reading directly from the Word of God. No lie. I'm definitely looking forward to this.
