I needed today. I needed to be served. I needed for someone else to do something. I get into a trap of feeling depleted and low after giving so much of myself. When I do have a quiet moment I don't want to do anything! Honestly, this is ridiculous! Why do I do this to myself? There are so many things I enjoy. For example: a clean house, a smaller waistline, a happy child, a happy husband, indexing, genealogy, crafts, playing with Taylor, music, good meals, gardening. I don't want to feel depleted anymore. I have learned over and over again that in order to be truly happy I need to take care of myself. I have 50 million things I want to do to improve myself. But tonight I pick 3.
1. Exercise 5 times this week.
2. Restart reading the Book of Mormon in 100 days.
3. Only have fast food twice.
Now the plan...I have a workout buddy that expects me every morning at 6:15 and this week I commit not to let her down. Taylor's happiest time of the day is morning so when I get home from working out I will read my Book of Mormon for the day. Fast food is my worst nemesis. I am a comfort eater with an addictive personality. Once I get it into my head that I want a bean and cheese burrito from Los Jilbertos nothing can change it. So, this week I will plan accordingly and only do this twice. I eventually want this to be a bi monthly or less habit, but for now twice a week is a good goal.
So, who's with me? Join me in my 3 goals or start your own. We need each other sisters! I have learned that I need to be more happy and joyful and let go of the little things. Which means I need a balanced life.
Love,
Cassa
