Elated

My current feeling:
Elated.

My current thoughts are:
Yesterday went so well. I got to chat to all sorts of people. Some I sought out, others came to find me. The weather could have been a little kinder but overall it was a good day. I did eat and drink rubbish but given that was all that was on offer, I had little choice. And to cap it all the Cumberlands won the competition, knocking Birmingham off top spot where they’ve been sat for several years on the trot.

My physical state is:
Achy.

My physical state is a result of:
I’ve been doing my arm raise challenge with my 1.5 kg weights I brought along. We walked nearly 12,000 steps yesterday back and forth to our hotel, and around the churchyard multiple times. But there was a lot of standing around. We weren’t allowed in the church whilst the ringing was going on, and there were few other seats available in the hall or beer tent.

I will make today extraordinary by:
1) The sun is shining this morning, so hopefully a pleasant drive home.
2) Looking forward to food prepping when I get home. Nothing is too complicated or requires too much cooking.
3) Relaxing ahead of starting the working week again.

My desired emotion for today is:
Calm.

I am a woman who:
is evolving.

Today I will let go of:
Hustle.

Today I choose to add:
Ease.

My wins, accomplishments, gratitudes for today:
Enjoyed yesterday. People seeking me out. Wanting to talk to me rather than C. People who asked my opinion and wanted to discuss tactics with me. I was the one who was seen and heard.

The thoughts that support my celebrations:
That sounds terribly egotistical, but when you’ve lived in other people’s shadow for so long, it’s good to get some recognition for myself.

I want to improve the following for tomorrow:
I want to relax into today, get food prep done and look forward to getting back to a rhythm of good food and exercise.

Words of advice, wisdom, encouragement, humour from my future self:
Take it slowly and chill out.
