A while back I stated that I was going to start meditating, well that never really happened except for a few times in the beginning, I plan on revisiting that choice as I am feeling stressed lately, non diet related, just in general. The park up the street that I also mentioned a while back opens back up next week, so I will be able to go there to walk soon, I am very much looking forward to that, the park should be pretty much empty except for the random elderly person or person on a bike, basically what I am getting at is it should be enjoyable. I think its safe to say I have found my groove and am on cruise control with this new way of eating.
lately to pass the time and relax I have been playing my guitar a lot. the music of the week is Pink Floyd, wify is very into them and I like them so why not. this concludes todays broadcast. here is the menu for your reading delight.

Glad to see you are right back on track. Really, I had no doubts! Good job!
ReplyDeleteI promise I won't do this again BUT I just had to write it out because it has helped me soooooo much with stress and other silly things and since you had mentioned meditating it just sorta felt right to post something here about GOD. Oh not that I'm saying anything about what you do or do not believe or anything -- just that it really has helped me.
ReplyDeleteI like to read a bit of my bible and meditate on that. God is so amazing. When I am started to let the "world" take over it helps me to stay grounded with prayer and meditation. I am almost always happy now -- not like before when silly things would stress me. I have finally let God be in the lead and I just follow. By doing that I am relieved of a great deal of stress. I always see the silver lining and am hopeful and patient and if you could have known me five years ago -- I am soooo different now and it is all because of God. I love to know that I am forgiven it helps me to be more forgiving to others. okay enough already.
That will be nice once the park is open and you can just walk and enjoy nature. That alone will help with the stress. I love that part of my morning walk, just enjoying the weather (just give me another month or so and I'll be complaining to beat the band about the heat, lol) the beautiful blue sky and the smell of all the blossoms in the air. Arizona really has the best winters :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the recipes. I love seeing what everyone else is eating, to see if it's something that might work for me too.
Have a good day!
I look forward to your recipes! Sorry to hear you're stressed out a bit lately. Happens to the best of us...
ReplyDeleteLooks like your menu is exactly on track, as ALWAYS, so good job with that! Hope you had a good walk this morning....I've got to get some kind of exercise myself.
