Did I mention I cry alot? I swear I cry every day. Happy, sad, tired, excited, overwhelmed, grateful – I cry at the drop of a hat. It’s a release, a way to shift energy. Yawning will do that, too, but it’s not really socially acceptable, either. Hmmm.
Today I continued to convalesce from this head/chest cold. I read “Minding Our Bodies”: cried. Watched “The Reader”: cried. Was overcome with gratitude during my meditation: cried. Got frustrated with being sick and missed my friends and boyfriend: cried. Realized that sitting on the couch watching “Arrested Development” reruns was exactly what I was doing two years ago when I moved in here having left my husband: cried. Appreciated how mind-bogglingly different and more joyous my life is today: cried.
Breakfast: lemon water; steel cut oats, banana, toasted pecans, watercress; chai. Toast, heat, eat: 4 minutes
Lunch: nettle tea; sprouted wheat toast with cheze; yellow tomatoes; cucumber; cantaloupe; avocado with dulse; green beans; radishes; blood orange soda. Slice, toast: 10 minutes.
Dinner: crabcake; fries; coleslaw; water; vanilla Haagen Dazs and brownie bite; decaf. Craved crabcake. Wanted dessert. Think I’m feeling better, but I won’t be ordering from the Village Wharf again.
