Right Now!

All from the August M3 goodies, though I have done a horid job at keeping them seperate because I LOVE them all so much!



My 5 things journaling:

I generally take a little night cap before bed to calm me down enough so I can sleep. These days the kids have me so wound up it would take forever otherwise. Juice and a splash of rum do wonders! I have decided not to deal in whining anymore. So when whining comes my way I ignore it or put the issue back in the whiner’s court. When I feel like whining I make art instead. I am trying really hard to cut back on my sugar intake. But sugar really likes me, especially when mixed with coffee early in the morning. I am really into following dreams and being real with myself for this season. It is not always easy, especially when you have little ones that depend on you, but I just have to be ME! I am really struggling with physical self-image issues, more so than I have ever in my life. This last baby took a real toll on my aging body, and I am still grieving the loss. I have little motivation to go back to my previous exercise routines even though I know I feel better when I am engaged in them. I guess I first need to let go of the idea of what my body should look like, and embrace what it can look like. Making this list was really hard for me. For the first time in a long time I did not want to put these things down or share them. I guess I was still denying my reality.
