bluecastleIronically I woke up feeling reasonably rested and right with the world. Its just I hate my job right now so coming in to work isn't the bestest thing ever.
But as I was lying in bed half awake this morning I had this vision for the back half of my kitchen. There's this dead space between the back door that leads in from the garage, and the start of the kitchen counters. Right now its just full of crap. But I suddenly saw myself moving out the crap and moving in a small table, laying a cute vintage table cloth and using it to eat at. I am bad at eating at the table, usually preferring to eat in front of the tv, but I also know that once I collapse into my chair, I'm not likely to leave it for any length of time. And since my craft stuff has taken over the dining room table ...
It's generally a good idea for me to pay attention to myself when I've seen these little flashes of inspiration. I'm taking a self-care class right now and really working through things that improve my life and things that don't. This seems like a place to start. And given I'm catless now, I can do fresh flowers on the table. So this might be happening soon. Maybe not tonight as I can't put off mowing my lawn any more.
Managed to put it off last night by going to see Now You See Me after dinner with the parents. It was great fun, and lots of great Ruffalo stuff -- which was mostly the reason I wanted to see it anyway :) Although I do love a caper film! It is however the kind of film that requires a rewatch once you know the twist/ending!!
Okay back to trying to make myself do stuff I don't want to do ... and pondering whether I'm brave enough to start making regular trips to the local public pool. I crave time in the water, and maybe I can convince myself that a couple evening a week at the pool is doable!! I went once last summer and it was okay. But its the perfect intersection of body issues, introvert issues, and procrastination issues!!!
