GRATITUDE: Today is Saturday and so thankful for a day to recover from last night’s best evening of hanging out with Vince, Pel, & Nikkie. Really feeling these days how important strengthening our connections with friends can fill up my being. Also, the importance of Eric and I being together in a scenario where we aren’t always taking about home stuff or the kids or just the normal daily bleh. Probably drank more than I should have but it was worth it in my opinion. We need to have the moments to just be ourselves and to be ourselves with each other, we need the chances to fall in love again. Today we went to Backhaus bread and had an afternoon coffee followed by a long walk while Juniper was at the park with friends and Jasper was at home binging YouTube gameplay videos. I definitely feel like we have graduated to a new level and we need to be aware and conscious of this new opportunity and not take it for granted. Time is precious and I’m trying hard to remember that now is now.
FOCUS: Getting back on track with making time to write in this journal…the last week I’ve barely been able to post a picture to capture the day but without any commentary. As much as I’d like to think I’ll go back and fill in the words, I just need to realize that not every day will be perfect and just maintaining the consistency is the important thing right now.
INSPIRATION: My body is feeling achy and not strong at all today after last night’s indulgence. Tomorrow back to yoga and tonight back to a somewhat normal bedtime. 1 day cheat day per week.
