Lazy Sunday

I was up before dawn. It is cold. I got my tea, but didn't want to go out to watch the sunrise. The cold makes me want to bundle up and stay in.

I did some yoga. I don't feel as strong as I once did, it makes it hard to practice. I had the dude spot me as I tried to reach into a backbend, which he did...as he was making us waffles and bacon.

I did some more cleaning after breakfast. Then got ready and left to get a hair cut. I have been hating my hair lately. It looks frizzy and wild, like some of the unkempt women I see at work that don't look too professional. So, I complained to Cassie my hairdresser. She tried to figure out the problem then asked me if I was happy with me. Well, that is an interesting question. I have gained weight. I am not doing yoga as much or working out. I am not hanging out with friends. My garden is dead. Work has been frustrating and I have really been down on myself. So okay. She was on to something. I swear she is just as good as my therapist on figuring out what I need. She cut my hair. She told me the next time I come in I will be back on track and feel better about myself and my hair. Go me!

Ian and Madison met me for lunch. We had a nice lunch and talk. Then I did some shopping. I bought a few pieces for the house. One piece, a frame that I can make a vision board. I had one unknowingly in college. I kept photos of models with looks I wanted. Poems, sayings, encouragements. This is what I want for my new board. I become what I believe. I want to believe in me again.

I came home. The dude welcomed me. I noticed he had changed our chalk board message that we leave for one another. "We are happy because we are flexible." Yes, we are. Yes, I am. New year, another new me. Live boldly!
