things are good

things are good today...I am grateful... I've done next to nothing after I went to work and for today it suits me just fine :) ...


I came home and ate lunch, played with Blue, took a shower, cleaned up,


got coffee, played with Blue again and then had therapy at 1115am.


I was struggling earlier before talking to my therapist but I eventually sort of had my head


around some answers, at least I was trying, but then talking to my therapist really helped a great deal.


After talking to her I decided I needed a treat as it's the start of the weekend 


and also I felt like I deserved something good. I walked over to the Trader Joe's


and bought a box of sunflower seed butter cookies and spiced apple cider.


The cookies were not as good as I hoped but that didn't stop me from


finishing off the whole box! haha.


I took a good, long leisurely nap on the couch and Blue joined me on and off and then 


I woke up to think about what next to do. I decided to put


away the dishes, made the bed, cleaned the litter box, took 


out the recycling, checked the mail box and put on a load of laundry.


There's something that was so good about today...a good moment indeed...


... just relaxing


into the rythm of the day and not fearful of enjoying it and yet also living by a standard that I am happy


I have. I think self discipline is so important and it's a practice that 


that has finally payed off. My therapist has helped me heal to the point that my sense of order and discipline allows me to have moments of being in touch with myself during quiet times


like today and yet also function in the world of others as well as the pragmatic


and self care...


Now, after writing this, my engine is revving for some action. :)


Have a good weekend and good night!
