24 September 2014

One more day until I see my boy, so the excitement continues to build as does my determination to stay and eat healthfully even as I travel, while staying flexible enough to enjoy myself & my time with DH & DS. Yesterday, I was a bit off, stayed my course but overate seeds & nut butter. Both were a roasted version & I'm realizing only raw agree with me and in limited quantities. So, I'll adjust away from these for now. Does anyone else have trouble with seeds? Even when I've added them to smoothies, it upsets my stomach, but without them, I seem to be fine.

I'm off to spin shortly then home to prep for leaving & pack. DH & DS are playing in a charity golf event today and will be around later this afternoon, so I'll get busy while I have the house to myself. It's going to be another beautiful day here in the northeast, so again a walk with my doggie is definitely in order.

I'll be in touch when I can while I'm away, thinking of you all and wishing you well! And, I know you're with me each step of the way, enjoying each moment with me and cheering me on if any struggles arise… how do I know that?… cuz thats just how wonderful, loving & supportive you all are, each & every day!

Now, on this one day, I'll begin in prayer --

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

And I'll pray, breathe, log, journal, stay curious & express my way through this one day and each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion. I'm so very grateful for each of fabulous you, my family & IRL friends, seeing my boy tomorrow and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox

Up early and off to early HIIT workout and then on to a busy day finishing up the monthly bookkeeping and gearing up to pack for the trip on Thur to see DS. I can't wait! I so love both my boys, but this one is more openly affectionate, and gives the best, longest hugs… one of many things I've missed since his move to SC.

We leave on a Thurs evening flight and will be in SC until early Mon morning… not my fav times to travel, but it gives us the maximum time there. I'm feeling great, again a result of eating & living healthfully. And, I'm ready to continue that, without getting too crazy about what I'll eat, while away. My journey has me in a really good place, and I'm doing all that I can to stay on route and enjoy the ride!

That ride today begins as always in prayer --

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

And I'll pray, breathe, log, journal, stay curious & express my way through this one day and each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion. I'm so very grateful for each of awesome you, my family & IRL friends, feeling great as a result of eating & living well, more beautiful weather in the northeast and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox

22 September 2014

Monday, and while it's not my usual routine as DH surprised me and is working from home, I'm still happily celebrating my successful weekend of eating and living. And especially so, knowing that I not only feel great because of it, but I'm building new healthier habits as well. Each day, and for me, each weekend and travel day in particular which that have been more of a challenge, that I am able to stay my course better establishes that route as the one for me toward good health and happiness. So, yes, happy this girl is!

I've been to early morning workout and have my errands done for the day. As I leave Thurs to go see my son:) -- yes, I'm so excited about that too, I could burst! -- I'm heading up to work shortly. With that accomplished for the week, I have the time I need to finish the other bookkeeping I do from home and get myself packed & organized to travel again. This trip is with DH and we'll be in SC from Thurs night to early Mon morning.

So, I'll get on my way, but not without starting in prayer --

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

And I'll pray, breathe, log, journal, stay curious & express my way through this one day and each one meal, moment, thought, bite & emotion. I'm so very grateful for each of tremendous you, my family & IRL friends, feeling this good, having had a great weekend, staying my course and having the health & wealth to live this life I love… and boy do I today! xoxox

21 September 2014

Sun:) and all continues to go well through this weekend of opportunity. My stomach is a little off this morning and was throughout he night, which is perplexing me as I've even eating really well and staying my course with whole foods, no grains, no dairy & no sugar. I snacked on pumpkin seeds yesterday which was different for me, but would they be stomach upsetting?

While I got through without eating, i felt squirrelly much of the afternoon as I did the book work I need to get done before this next trip (I do the books for my BIL who owns a business manufacturing and selling mulch & wood products, the BIL who is currently hospitalized for depression, and 2 self storage businesses that DH and I are partners in). I think I don't like having to work on the weekends, but also don't want to give up some of my "me time" during the week to do so either.

Today, it's gloomy, misting & overcast this morning. DH & I are to golf with 3 other couples this afternoon, and we have a chance of thunderstorms then too, so I'm secretly hoping the ladies will opt to skip the golf & just join for dinner instead. We were also going to bike outdoors, but won't' do that this morning, so I'm off to zumba instead. But to start my day in the best possible way, first I'll pray --

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

And I'll pray, breathe, log, journal, stay curious, and express my way through this one day, and each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion. I'm so very grateful for each of amazing you, my family & IRL friends, getting through the day yesterday unscathed by eating anything unhealthy for me, using the rest of the weekend to stay happy & healthy, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox

Sat:) -- feeling good, eating well and all is good in my world!… hope it's the same in yours! I've been to spin class, ran my errands, and on to bookkeeping work next. With all the upcoming travel plans, I have to be extra efficient to not fall behind with work or housework… even if it means weekends. But, you know me, I'll make time to play too!

DH & I went to see BIL yesterday. He had his first ECT treatment and is off all but 1 anti-depressent, and seemed better than he has in awhile. The cocktail of drugs had him so lethargic and sluggish, hopefully this new treatment will work and he'll continue to feel better with each passing day. Then DH & I had a nice date night dinner out at a wonderful farm-to-table restaurant and re-connected after my time away and his busyness at work. We've come a long way in our relationship, but life had gotten in the way again and we've felt more distant again… until last night.

So, if I want to have that time to play, I'd better get on my way and pray --

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

And, I'll continue to pray, breathe, log, journal, stay curious & express my way through this one day and each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion. I'm so very grateful for each of wonderful you, my family & IRL friends, another nice day in the northeast, feeling good, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox
