Man-ing the day away...
Husband is working OT while I have done nothing all day, zero, zilch, nada. So this is what it is like being him. Kinda boring actually, I can only rest so much, and I do not have the affinity for the tele that he does.
I am tired to the bone and am only 1/2 way through our mandatory OT. I ate pounds of chocolate and drank too much beer last night. Why I do not know. Have been trying to be kind to myself, to my body; even though it so often not to me. Seemed the best idea at the time. Does not seem so brilliant now.
Project Decrease Stress is going swimmingly. Meditations, hypnosis, eating healthy, moderate exercising, etc. I can really tell a difference! There is one meditation that you take yourself into the pain and experience it fully, exploring every nuance. It is weird but the pain actually seemed to become comical. I have only succeeded at this once. Must practice more. Much different to accomplish this in the quiet of my home than at work with everyone coming at me from different directions.
Here is to all of us, that we may love and be loved, that we may find as much joy in the journey as we can.

I love that your de-stressing is working out. That mandatory overtime stuff, 1/2 over, yeah!
Here\'s you to for such a beautiful sentiment.

I too find meditations so very very wonderful. I\'ve come across some really good on-line ones that I visit fairly regularily.
Finding oneself with time and/or a day where you can totally do nothing can have a very positive affect on you if you approach it the right way. I so love those days cause it gives me time to 200% focus on all and everything nice, good, for me & me alone be it books, music, daydreaming, cooking, baking, meditation etc. etc., just everything for me.
mmmmm beer. cheer up sleepy T, oh what can it be to a
daydream believer and a homecoming queen.
your soul is indeed beautiful.
Glad the destressing is going well. I have a meditation about the pain too and it makes me happy everytime I do it ( ok, sometimes I am only happy til I move again but what the hey)
And I am with you find all the joy you can on the journey!
Peace,Love and Hugs
the meditation sounds interesting. i have soooo much pain in my knee that i yell. i wonder if it would work for me, kind of that or start drinking and doing pain killers. lol. xxoo
