radish

this morning i woke up with a smile on my face.
i felt rested.
i felt happy.
the sun was streaming in the living room window at 6:30 am.
my house (except for our bedroom) is really tidy, and that makes me feel unencumbered. it's way easier to maintain unclutter when it's tidy to start with.
my body is feeling less bulky.
i was up early enough that i had plenty of time to shower, get ready, etc, and still arrive to work 10 minutes early.

my goodness, it's a glorious morning. it's just one of those days when everything aligns and i'm feeling great. which is nice, because i frequently have days that are the opposite (late, tired, grumpy, no sun, messy house, feeling fat). hooray! i'm so happy that today is a good day. i really want to be on time for work this year. i'm glad the year has started off well, but that doesn't mean i'll be able to maintain it.

i'm slowly getting the hang of eating small portions. now that i'm eating properly, it seems almost silly that i ate too much before. i think it's partly because when living alone its difficult to make small quantities of food. i'm becoming more satisfied with less that i don't want to eat more. this is encouraging. i'm confident that this will be a fully adopted approach by the end of this month. it's been said that it takes 23 days to form a habit! yay!
 
goin' back to a simpler place and time.
