Appreciations 4.157 – luxury

Upside-DownLuxurious morning! Woke up at 5:30 and did Qi Gong. I love how it feels in the moment and I’m so excited to see what the long term effects will be when I’ve been doing it for awhile. Snuggled back under the covers, savoring thoughts of my sweet Saturday and pondering possibilities for today.

Got up and drew and wrote and colored while sipping delicious coffee. I love quiet time like this, with no time pressure, no deadlines or meetings or schedules to consider.

The openness of today. It’s been a long while since I’ve had a whole unscheduled day. I wonder what I’ll do!

Appreciations 4.100 – the first hundred days of the 4th year

100! I remember thinking when I started this fourth year of daily appreciations that maybe it was time to take a break… and then thinking how strange it would be to stop. Even though there are days when finding that silver lining is more challenging than others, there is something very comforting about making the effort, and about knowing that even when the good things are hard to see, there are always, always at least 3 things to appreciate about any given day. That is a truly wonderful thing to know. ♥

A quiet day for lots of resting and sleeping. I don’t know why I’ve been so much more fatigued than usual the past week, but it sure is nice to have the opportunity to rest as much as I seem to need.

Managing to get a few little taskies done that have been waiting and waiting and WAITING for me to pay attention to them. How much lighter it feels to have tended to them! 🙂

Another early night. So strange for this little night-owl to fall asleep before 10 pm! I sure am glad I am able to when the need arises.
