A Lovely Day

Wanna hear about my day? You’re all nodding right? RIGHT???? Wink

Last night I actually slept through the night. No nightmares (well, nothing that woke me up anyway). AND I slept in this morning.

A good night’s sleep is a good start to a great day.

Then this morning I make the decision I’m going to have a totally self indulgent day. Go me!!! Good decision.

Some blogging over cuppa and breakfast.

Then onto a lovely soak in our huge tub. Accompanied by a cup of tea, half a packet of Tim Tams (Double Coated ones at that!!!) and one of my favourite magazines “Australian Natural Health”.

Few more online bits and pieces.

Lunch with my lovely husband (yes, he turned up. He always does eventually).

Did some relaxation and meditation exercises from my “On the Go Meditations” CD. Listened for the first time to the track “Your Perfect Day” which was fabulous and positive and is something I’m going to try and listen to more often.

Changed the sheets on our bed to BRAND NEW, soft and snuggly, flannelette sheets. Did that so I can look forward to hopping in to bed tonight. I LOVE fresh sheets but even better are NEW sheets and even better still is that first night in flannelette sheets after having cotton over the warmer months.

Ate the most delicious Pink Lady Apple.

Did the Gratitude Dance for:

  • new sheets
  • healthy food
  • my wonderful family
  • my fabulous friends both online and off
  • abundance

Walked down to the bus stop to meet the kids. They have to cross the road this term and Trailer Boy is a bit young to do that by himself. Had a lovely conversation on the way back to the house including Trailer Boy pointing out all the wheel tracks in our driveway.

Out to netball training. I’m still unfit!!!! Played Goal Defense for a bit this week. Had to remember NOT to stop at the goal ring. LOL. Really enjoyed myself and starting to feel like the “old me” more than I have for a long time. I’m hoping that’s the old me coming back and a result of reducing the medications and not just a temporary thing.

Just helped Trailer Boy get into his pj’s and he pointed out “pants tracks” on his skin. LOL. A mark his jocks have left.

Now I’m looking forward to snuggling down in my NEW sheets. Smile

I think I should have a “me day” more often.

LOVE the suggestions for a “ME” weekend!!!!! Smile

    Wow, that sounds fantastic! I am especially jealous about the sleeping in part since my husband’s away at the moment so I’ve been up since 6am! And very envious about the Tim Tams too!

    It’s a really good idea to have a day off - it’s not something Mums normally get. I’m glad you’re starting to feeling better.

    Great day! You deserve it. Now, wouldn’t it be lovely if I could have a day like that for mothers day? Hmmm?

    Guera - I’m pretty useless in the mornings at the moment anyway so DH is used to tackling that part of the day.

    Claire - I like the sound of 8am until midday with chocolate. :)

    Maggie - :) I’m sure you could create your own lovely day. You might not like mine!!!!

    Sharon - ROFLOL. Hey, Golf is meant to be VERY relaxing. Isn’t it????
