Ever have one of those days where you feel like you've got to haul yourself, hand over tightly clenched fist, the whole way through it?
Not that anything particularly difficult is going on, it's just the doing of what needs to get done. Since yesterday, I've had a seriously fierce case of the "DON'T WANNA'S!" -- which I'm sure is somewhat tied to the phase of the moon, me being a woman and all. I've actually had to force myself to sit down to work, walk dogs, go grocery shopping, and even do my workout. Sheesh!
It's interesting how these cycles build and ebb. I think it has a lot to do with the routine nature of the PCP -- the food prep, cooking, working out, and trying to think of blog topics -- OY! For the first time in this project, I actually found myself wishing that I didn't have to deal with all of that these last two days. Routine tends to make me feel confined after a while, and I think my system starts seeking ways to rebel at a certain point of saturation. This girl is feeling the need for a break, what about you gals?
I guess that's why Patrick has sprinkled in these indulgences, and it couldn't have come at a better time! So tomorrow evening D and I are planning to hit happy hour at a nice little Indian restaurant for a cocktail and yummy light snacks.
Given the past couple of days, I'm looking forward to it with a mix of trepidation (what will the food do to my digestive system?) and a dose of "I DON'T CARE! I'VE WORKED HARD AND HAVE EARNED A LITTLE TREAT!"
Should be interesting, so more on that this weekend.
If someone did all 90 days clicking their heels with glee I'd know that a) they're covering something up or b) they're on something.
ReplyDeleteSo consider your blue day a sign of good mental health!
Shelly, I am with you. The past couple of days I did NOT want to get up early. I did NOT want to do my exercises. And I did NOT want to have to do them again tomorrow. I even had one day when I completely missed my legs.
ReplyDeleteI didn't consider the moon, but that might just be it. Anyway, it'll pass! Just go easy on yourself and treat yourself to the indulgences you can have (like English Toffee tea!)
YOU'VE WORKED HARD AND YOU EARNED IT! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
