Solo lunch

I look forward to eating lunch, alone in my car on a work day. It lets me relax, and be OFF for a little while. Today I listened to a podcast I already heard and liked, because I didn't even want to think too much about any new subjects, just easy-to-digest content I already knew I enjoyed. It was warm and calm, and just what I needed.

On time, in fact - EARLY

I arrived to a class early today, by about 7 minutes. It was glorious to slowly get out of the car, chat with someone from class, grab my stuff, set up, and kill a little time before class began. I have always had trouble being on time, and I've realized lately that it is so much easier ON ME to eliminate the rush, the stress and anxiety, and just arrive on time. The difference between a few minutes early, versus the usual few minutes late changes the whole course of things to follow. I've always known how rude and inconsiderate being late is to others, but what I'm only recently realizing is that being on time is easier on ME. For many reasons, it has become my new favorite!

Even if it doesn't make sense

Working your body encourages your mind to be still

Off!

I took yesterday off (because I NEEDED A DAY OFF!) to hang with a friend, see some art, share a meal and a chat and feel like a normal person again. Phew! I almost feel normal.

I needed an attitude adjustment

So I changed my physical surroundings. And did some yoga in my yard. I feel much better

Finally planted my herb garden!
