Stabby

Hi Everyone,

Speedster, I like that 'stabby', I don't feel stabby right now I am just happy to be sober and not have a hangover.

Lila you are always welcome here.

I do yoga sometimes but not consistently, I like it but I am not a faithful goer. I more like to swim, bike, rollerblade...stuff like that. I guess I like more 'action'. Hmmmm....I don't know if that sounds good!

Anyway, have a great night everyone!

Love,
Narilly

hi thanks all for the welcome!
I think a long time ago I was here, ACM.
Tonight, before dinner, I thought it would be nice to have a glass of wine, then things got hectic, anyways, of course there was no wine, and I just enjoyed my headache, and my tummy-ache from eating cookies that I wish I didn't eat. Sugar is so best stayed away from! Thoughts just come and go! Every day gets easier...

Hi all,

things very busy here, so haven't had much time to post. Sounds like the whole world is changing seasons and suffering the effects! We are down to 14 degrees today (that's Celsius!) and I'm having to pull out some warm clothes. Should be heading out for my swim squad round about now, but I'm procrastinating because I'm feeling warm and cozy and dont want to get cold ........... what a wimp, I'll have to harden up before winter hits properly! I keep reminding myself of all you folks who have made it through winter with snow and minus zero temperatures and stayed cheerful and optimistic .... you are my role models!!

On the other hand, I've been thinking a lot about the discussion on balance that we had on this thread a week or so (or longer?) ago? Saturday I had a really long and hard bike ride that left me lying on the couch recovering for most of the afternoon! It felt like I was defeating the purpose a bit. So I've decided to pull back a bit on some of the exercise stuff and get back into "enjoyment" rather than "constant challenge" mode! Constantly pushing myself gets me back into "I need a reward" thinking, and I know what sort of reward is the first to spring to mind!!

I have a client workshop to be at over the next two days. They are having dinner tomorrow night, and want me to join them (they see it as being part of the relationship building process that the workshop is designed to help). I'm in two minds ........ they are a relatively new client, with the prospect of lots of work over the next 12 months (and these days we take that very seriously!) And these things are good for cementing relationships. On the other hand, being in situations with people I dont know all that well is exactly the sort of situation in which I want to have a drink in order to relax and feel more comfortable. I know I can go to it and not drink ...... except that I rather suspect that I'll be the only one (and its a bunch of blokes, only one other woman) and I also know that I'll be sitting there smelling it!! It wont be so bad if it is early and short, but I dont know whether it will be or not.

Anyway, have a plan for leaving myself an "out" ...... will declare my intentions to go in the morning but caution that I will have to check with the office at the end of the day because of other work due on Friday. That way if I dont feel like I can handle it, I have an acceptable (to them) excuse.

Other than that our current batch of kittens (The Archies) continue to to fun. Mother cat ignores them a lot, so Wookie has taken over as surrogate "Big Brother"! He grooms them regularly - I've never seen a male cat do that!!

better go - have a nice Wednesday!!
