Nuturing for 11/7

I thought it would be of support to each other to share how each has nurtured theirself for today.

Today I spent $2.00 on a piece of soft fabric with fall colors and theme. And wrapped two flower pots of Mums with it. One Mum is a lilac/purple and the other is a beautiful pink. And though the fabric is fall theme, it has small spots of pink and purple, so it looks good with the flowers I grew.

Do anything specail for yourself today?

Well, I suppose it is a small start, but I actually made an effort to put on make up and make my hair look better. It made me feel better at least.

I sat in the sunshine after lunch and opened up to someone about some soul searching and healing I'm doing.

I made myself up just to do errands...I took the time to eat well and take my vitamins rather than eating junk...and I'm about to take a nap!

Heaven!

I'm really enjoying this thread. Today I made Potatoe Soup for myself. I've been working hard, and the soup was a soothing comfort food.

I enjoy this too. It helps me remember that doing things for yourself doesn't have to involve spending a lot of money or even a lot of effort. And, since I am horrible at doing things for myself it gives me ideas! (I'll take the recipe for potato soup! I've always wanted to make it!)

Today I am planning to have the baked potato with chili topping that I have wanted for weeks for lunch. Two bucks and Wendy's.

I am sitting here with my orange juice taking a small restful period before I start my day.

Hi, I gathered some drying corn stalks from my garden, and arranged a couple bundles on the porch for a warm harvest feeling. I'm enjoying the Fall feeling. Scattered: I'll post the soup recipe later. Hope you had a nurturing potatoe!

i was in my 'acting nervous and over-reacting' mode this morning... rushing to an 8 am appointment.. freaking out that i was going to be late... ended up gettng there 15 mins early... so I said... hmmmmmmm.... i'm going to take this 15 mins and spoil myself and try to calm myself down...

so i got a nice cup of coffee and some donuts.. sat in my car all by myself... sipping coffee, eating donuts and listening to music...

it was pure heaven... i couldn't stop smiling...

Got up early this morning and walked for forty minutes, took vitamins and had a nap while kids were sleeping this afternoon. It was a good day.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
