Good Monday.

Already a whirlwind of activity with little time to reflect. DRAT. Let's suffice it to say the weekend was "okay" ... nothing horrid, nothing spectacular. I had a migraine Sunday morning which sort of put a crimp on my plans ... but made me get an extra 2 hours or so of sleep in the form of a "migraine nap" ... so I guess it wasn't all "bad."

I worked on an article to submit to Aim Early Idaho's next newsletter. That took a lot of my time on Saturday. My head is full of ideas and hopes for building my business and I've been feeling rather overwhelmed by the prospect. I have lots of ideas but feel overwhelmed about how to market myself, prioritize, and believe that I could be successful. Chattycathy recommended a book to me that her Steve swears by so I ordered it on Amazon. The author's name is Brian Tracy but I can't remember the name of the book right now.

My husband continues to feel not very well. It is frustrating for him and me. We've been talking about it and want to make some changes to see if we can't support his body to heal from the assault it has been under these past 4 plus years from the cancer and then the treatments to stop the cancer. I've been reading about flax oil combined with cottage cheese ... a Dr. Budwig came up with the idea ... and think we will try that ... along with some other changes.

I never did get around to exercising yesterday ... the migraine interfered with my scheduled. I also didn't track food, though I don't think I did too poorly overall. I don't know. I didn't weigh this morning.

I did exercise this morning though and made myself a breakfast casserole I hope to eat the rest of the week. Turned out to be about 203 calories a serving ... not too shabby for breakfast ... so we'll see how that turns out. I need to figure out how to make my mornings less hectic so I thought this might be a way to go. Convenience food I make myself at home!!!

I am grateful ... truly I am ...

1. for some lively conversations with my husband over the weekend about our lives

2. for a visit to a couple thrift stores yesterday that netted me 3 or 4 bottoms and 3 or 4 tops ... for less that $25.00 total!!!

3. for decent sleep over the weekend

4. for making progress on my business plan even if I am feeling a strong lack of confidence and organization

5. for this sense ... deep within me ... that Bob and I CAN make positive changes, for our health, for our financial status, for us ... I dont' know how but deep inside I feel the possibility and want to nurture that feeling so it grows and becomes bigger and stronger than my insecurities, fears, and self-doubt.

Today is a day of self kindness, of stepping forward, of living my life to its fullest. Being over 200 lbs doesnt' mean anything at all ... it is temporary ... it is just a number ... is does not define me!!!

Have a wonderful day buddies ... I hope I can visit you later today ... you in my thoughts daily!!

What a great journal Carol. I am happy that you and Bob are looking into some changes that will hopefully be good for both of you. Keeping my fingers crossed that they will be positive. I'm glad that you are migrane free today. So you ordered the book. That's great. I am going to start reading it when I get back to Indy after Ashley leaves on Sunday. It was great chatting with you and I hope we can connect again soon. I am thinking about getting that conference Skype. I think it's a great program. Have a great Monday!!

I love that you cooked and planned ahead!! go you!! You sound good- a number is only a number...Wish you had had more reflection time this weekend. It sounds like you and Bob are in a great spot despite the health issues. Hope you had a good day!!

Yes Cathy I ordered the book ... actually I ordered TWO!!! One on goals. I need some help getting motivated and figuring out how to set goals for myself and my business venture. I am good at WHAT I do ... not so good at believing I can be successful and knowing how to do the "step-by-step" process. I am signed up for the Skype free trial and plan on purchasing the group plan. I think only one person needs it in a group to use it. Sharon my breakfast casserole turned out AWESOME!!! I didn't have time to eat it until I was in the car on our way to work. I was the passenger so that was good. I think I am going to try to reduce carbs and increase protein. I bought some flax oil today and it was DELICIOUS ... tasted like orange sherbert!!! It does have calories but it is good fat and I think between that and upping my protein I hope it begins to shift my body. Okay ... stopping now ... I am talking too much ... mostly to myself!! LOL!!
