Ready

I’m currently feeling:
Impressed.

My thoughts creating this feeling :
Yesterday was a good days ringing. A real mix of good and not so good bells. There was a really nice ring of 12 where we rang some Yorkshire and Cambridge Max. Both had someone in the band who had never rung it before and they did extremely well. I rang some spliced surprise minor and some spliced doubles at different towers which was good to achieve. There were some rather spectacular churches with pinicles and interiors. We got to walk around Taunton to the three churches in the city centre, so managed to reach my step goal her the day. We had a lovely evening meal and were back at the hotel before 10pm. Not very Raving of us but I didn’t really want a late night anyway.

My desired feeling:
Ready.

Thoughts to practice to create my desired feeling:
We have several more towers to ring at today before heading home. By the time we’ve done that I expect I shall be ready to be back in my own home. I’ll need to get my breakfasts and lunches ready for the week ahead, and at least Monday’s work outfit decided. I shall be ready for my own bed.

I’ll show up on purpose in my dress, body language and presentation by:
  Blue jeans, navy tshirt and blue jumper I bought from the Olympic ski jump venue in Slovakia a few years back. Warm, comfy and practical tor ringing in and the long journey home. Same jewellry as the last few days as it’s all I bought with me. We will be mostly ringing with locals for Sunday service ringing so will need to fit in with whatever they want to ring.

I will show up for myself by:
Not overeating. We had a big meal last night. Cooked breakfast this morning and have a Cavery booked for lunch, so need to make sure I don’t overload my plate. I’m getting better at recognising when I’m nearly full and stopping eating before I get overstuffed.

I will show up for my extraordinary goal by:
Ringing as appropriate. Keeping in good company and joining in what I want to. I’m not going to read or action any emails when I get home.

I will upgrade my surroundings by:
Half a dozen more churches to look around. Beautiful scenery, although very water logged. Final eating out of the weekend.

Today I am:
Looking forward to getting back home and my home comforts.

Today I am grateful for:
C, who has done all the driving all weekend. I have offered several times but he prefers to drive anyway. Its meant I can watch the scenery go by and not worry where we are headed. I could even nod off if I wanted to.
