Daily 5 - Day 46

Today's Daily 5:
  1. Encouraging words from a dear friend, reminding me that I am seen and deeply loved, by others, and by Jesus
  2. A reminder from Jesus while I was at church of moments he has been with me, protecting me, even when I didn't know it at the time
  3. simple and satisfying meals - raisin toast, turkey sandwiches, nachos...
  4. sleeping a bit longer than usual this morning... even with the dreams the extra bit of rest was helpful
  5. a quiet afternoon spent thinking, writing, praying, and watching Grey's Anatomy on DVD

Saturday Sorts of Thing

I did errands this morning. Groceries, and the vitamin store. A trip to the electronics shop to get a USB hub for my laptop.

At various points in between I've been home. To make breakfast and sort out vitamins. To make lunch. To rest.

I managed to get through a 25 minute yoga dvd, all the while working on not cursing or dropping out of the poses too soon due to pain and trembling muscles. It would seem some of my flexibility has disappeared in the last couple of years.

And, just for those of you who wondered if I was really serious when I said I needed a system to sort my vitamins, I took a picture while they were all spread out across my coffee table, during the weekly process of sorting into the thrice daily containers I pop into my purse each morning. Plus, I think there are a few, that I take only at bedtime, and thus don't have to sort, that are missing!

Good Morning World

I was thinking that I'd be able to take this Saturday morning nice and slow, and spend it in my pjs on the couch.

And then I realized that I have neither food for breakfast, nor some of the vitamins necessary to take with breakfast, and that I'll need to run errands, sooner than later, in order to get the necessities. And they are necessities if you know me well, both the food (who'd have ever thought that I'd consider breakfast a necessity???) and the vitamins. It's also a necessity to take them at certain times of day, which I'm already pushing a bit.

So, I'm up. and I'm off.

I put a "ruby" in my nose today. I just felt like rubies today.

More later.
