Daily 5 - Year 2, Day 167

Today's Daily 5:
(an introduction to the Daily 5 can be found by clicking the link in the sidebar, to the left)
  1. A good sleep last night
  2. feeling healthier
  3. peanut butter toast
  4. a lazy morning watching the food network
  5. getting several nagging tasks on my list either at least started, or all the way completed
  6. homemade, still hot from the oven yorkshire pudding with butter and jam (also good with gravy, but better, in my opinion with butter and jam)
  7. a ride to the library this afternoon - essential since I had about a dozen books to return, and a few new ones to pick up
  8. first day of using my Feel Good list
  9. planning for the week ahead
  10. curling up to sleep in my own bed

Sunday's are for Resting

Yes, yesterday finished slowly.

But I ended up spending a great deal of it feeling fairly ill, as some health stuff that flares up occasionally flared.

I cooked a fabulous new dish, part of my goal to make at least 12 over the course of the year, and ended up barely being able to eat any of it.

A long treatment from mom left me feeling a bit better, and I headed towards bed.  The bonus is that for the first time in several days, I slept fairly well.

And so, today is mostly for resting.

I haven't changed out of my pajamas yet. I'll get up in a while and shower.

I'm working on some things that need to be accomplished, but I'm doing them from a chair, watching Top Chef, wrapped in a blanket, and with magic bags across my sore hips and neck.

So I'm resting.  Because today, caring for me, letting myself heal, looks like rest.
