So this morning I was supposed to start my "new perspective" day! I was supposed to throw all the ideas and dreams of what this duty station would bring us out the window and finally enjoy where I am, whom I'm with (even if it's not my husband), and what I'm doing. Unfortunately, I started out this morning crying over a banana and yogurt. Can you believe it?!? Even after my pep talk to myself in the car yesterday, I couldn't do it! I couldn't look this day in the face and slap it. Instead I ate chips and salsa for breakfast, a family size box of mac and cheese (of course, I shared it with Izzy. She got lucky.), took a 2.5 hour nap with Izzy and ate a big ole cheese burger and two helpings of fries for dinner. Needless to say I think I'm going to be sick but tomorrow is another day. Chris told me I was allowed a redo.
So tomorrow I will.........
*Wake up with more energy (and with a smile).
*I will turn negative thoughts into positive words.
*enjoy the beach even if I have to wear a snowsuit.
*be thankful I am doing something I totally enjoy and get on the ball with it.
*start checking things off my list.
*being a better wife, mother and friend.
*pick up my camera to document our lives and not just my client's lives.
*not count my failures or attempts, I will count my successes and multiple blueprints that made me better.
*support my husband and finally realize being at school is a job and he will have to work late some nights and not to take it personally.
*and finally.... I will take better care of myself and take pride in my body, mind and soul.
There I said it! Now it's out on paper so I guess I have to do it. So I better get some rest since I have a big day tomorrow. Cheers to new perspectives!
This is the last post without any pictures. I promise.
