Yay Friday!!!

Been looking forward to you for days now. Its date night with the Hubs - we are trying out a local German restaurant tonight - made reservations and everything!! I'm looking forward to a date again.

Not much for written in stone plans this weekend - we tend to always end up doing something though.  I do have a few bags of clothes that must go to the Goodwill. I'm tired of them being in the corner behind my bedroom door.  We need to take Lil Man's bassinet to a consignment shop as well - its hanging out in the entryway - no wonder I feel cluttered and blocked it!

Worked out Tues and Thursday of this week - will hit the gym tomorrow afternoon.  I am contemplating trying to do some ab stuff or yoga during lunch at work. I rarely leave my office for lunch - I generally eat at my desk and either surf the net or read.  I am fortunate to have both the space and an honest to goodness office with a door that closes! I may test the waters next week and see how it goes - lots of time I end up working but maybe if I shut the door and stick an "at lunch" sign on it.. Hell I may even bring my stuff in here and do my 30 day shred's or yoga after hours when everyone else is gone!!

Anyone else try working out in their office at lunch or after hours??

Finding my "wa" and breaking old patterns

I'm stressed as can be and feeling out of sorts and drained. Pretty much my "wa" is lost and I need to get it back.  No I'm not drunk blogging - I just need to get a balance again. If your not sure what "wa" is - don't worry, its an inside term for peace & balance.

I need to declutter both my physical world and my mental one. So deep cleaning my house is on the agenda and hitting the gym.   I need to learn to be able to stat what I need and not feel guilty about it. I need to learn when to walk away from those who give guilt trips when you call them on their own crap.  I don't walk on people why should they walk on me? 

I know all this is learned behavior and its picked up over years and years and breaking it is not an easy thing.  I do know that you teach people how to treat you so if you want it to change you have to be the one to start the change and stick to it. Its not easy but if you don't then you are giving people permission to behave as usual.

Thursday Musings - 6 Weeks into Stay at Home Orders

I seriously can not believe we have been "sheltering in place" for 6 freaking weeks now, and I say this as an "I'd rather...
