My boy's in trouble today -- I've been up since 3:30 & while I know he'd prefer to sleep in ( noon or later!), I'm certainly gonna fade early so will have to wake him. 10ish seems like a good compromise. I've had my workout (found a great place here with boot camp, circuit training & spin classes - did their 5:15 circuit class already); just finished my mindfully eaten breakfast & logged in my mindful eating log. And, the packing up is going well & we're on track to head to Cincinnati tomorrow. I'm hopeful & expecting the visit there with my Mom to go well too. As many of you know, she's in the early stages of Alzheimer's which proves trying & tiring for me when I visit her alone. But having my sons & DH with me this time will make it much easier. (DH & older son fly in on Fri.). My younger son in particular has a way of dealing with her that is really uplifting as he always seems to add some comic relief at just the right time as things are getting tough.
So, as always, I'll start my day praying for serenity (& hoping to find time for a nap) and will pray, breathe, log, post & express through this one day, meal, moment, bite & emotion at a time. Xoxox
