As I scroll through former posts, I realize that the decisions I have made recently are not new. They are reverbertations of previous thoughts. My new thoughts, I believe have more wisdom or clarity. The need for actions feels imperative and freeing simultaneously.
I have decided to take a social hiatus. Maybe fast.
Purpose:
Make time to be healthy in my relationship with God, Sam and myself.
To Do:
Eat well
take time to shop
prepare tasty meals
enjoy eating tasty meals with conversation and laughter
Exercise often
pilates
walk briskly
cheese-tastic exercise videos
exercise classes at local gym on weekends.
eliptical machine
Reflect creatively
journal
blog
do something with my pictures
collage
Think originally
read essays-novels and poetry
read friends blogs
talk to family
listen to NPR
listen to Keller's marriage series
discover new music
discuss ideas with Sam
When I think about these changes I see that they are an evolution of habits I have already begun to put in place. These are not revolutions. I have aspired to these things for a long time.
I am especially excited because Sam is excited. I started to eat healthier yesterday (meaning that I started the South Beach diet- I function better with hard and fast rules when it comes to losing weight). We had no food in the house and went to BJ's with the idea of the food I would need for the next ten days. Sam is excited about the new tastes and combinations and this makes me happy. I am not doing my own thing-or trying to cajole him to eat what I cook.
