Happy Thursday, darlings.
It’s a gray day at Chez Crystal. We had some thunder overnight. I have vague memories of moving my phone off of the bedside table that’s under the bedroom window because it was getting wet, and moving it back later because I was convinced I wouldn’t hear the alarm if it stayed under my pillow. It was perfect sleeping weather, aside from Mal and his constant need to press his warm, furry body right up against me, no matter what the temperature is.
This morning’s yoga wasn’t much physically, but was a very good way to start the day. It was an excellent way to practice mindfulness, which I’m trying to incorporate more into my everyday shit. Plus, it felt amazing to just stretch after yesterday’s hard workout.
I need to make it through two more shifts. I’ve handled shit remarkably well, all things considered. Last weekend I was a bit of a bitch, mostly because I had to spend so much time with StressedRPh and making it impossible to actually have plans. But, I didn’t do what I normally would have done, which is to aggressively eat my feelings.
With all the extra hours the two of us have taken the last couple of weeks, the paychecks have been good. That’s not to say I’m no longer bitter about not being able to buy myself that set of fire poi. Because I am. I’m super bitter about it. However, I know the car is more important, and it’s going in for repairs on Saturday. I’ll be dropping him off at work for 7am, bringing the car in at 8am, and he’ll take an Uber home at lunchtime.
And with a bit of luck, I’ll have one less thing on my mental list of things that stress me out.
Time for another coffee. The weekend is right around the corner, and I’m going to have a good day. ☕🌞
