Post Travels Funk

I was awake by 7:30AM this morning and was happy to have my groceries that were delivered yesterday.  I had my peanut butter on toast with a delicious pineapple, orange, lime juice.  Then...well, I would like to say I ran some errands and did my strength training, but I did not.  I was really in a funk today and didn't want to do much of anything.

I did some various work and research on my computer, watched some movies, and took a nap.  I would like to blame the snow outside for not wanting to go for a walk, but really, I just didn't want to do anything.  So I didn't.  Joe and I did go to our friend, Issac and Courtney's, place for dinner and games and had some fun.  Now that we are back home, I yet again feel tired.

So before I get down on myself, here are my successes for the day:

1. I woke up when my body told me to wake up and didn't force it to sleep another 4 hours.

2. I easily got back into eating my healthy organic foods that were waiting for me.

3. I ate a good number of fruits and veggies today.

4. We had fajitas for dinner and I made myself one with chicken and one with just veggies.

5. Before I go to bed, I am going to prepare my gym bag for aquatics tomorrow.

You see, while I know today wasn't perfect, I have to continue to forgive myself a little more.  Getting back on track isn't always easy and sometimes it's better to focus on the little successes first.  Tomorrow, I look forward to getting back into my activity.  I can't wait to go to aquatics.  It's so much fun, and I have missed it.  I hope the early morning class will motivate me throughout the rest of the day, but I will make sure to keep my hopes at bay and go with the flow.  I also plan to rewatch the documentary, "Hungry for Change".  For some reason it really motivates me and I think tomorrow will be a good time cue it up on Netflix.  I also plan to get back into reading again.  Motivation takes many forms and I plan to expose myself to a number of them to get myself back on track.
