Good morning, y'all. I'm actually on top of things this morning.
The weather: Cool mornings, warm to hot afternoons. Typical Autumn in Appalachia.
As I look outside my window: It's light out, but still cloudy and misty. I did see a bit of sun on my run earlier, but it's all hidden behind clouds now.
Right now, I am: Answering a text from the bed and breakfast, typing up this post and listening to music.
Thinking and pondering: About boundaries. For a very long time, I didn't have any, and let people walk all over me...now that I've put boundaries into place, a lot of people are upset their access to me is limited or gone completely. But, such is life.
How I am feeling: Good. Sturdy. Hopeful.
On the breakfast plate: A ham sandwich and a cup of coffee. Breakfast of champions, hehe.
On the lunch plate: I think I'm going out with a friend for lunch, but I will be sure to make wise decisions.
On the dinner plate: Potato soup.
What I'm wearing: Running clothes, which for me consist of legging shorts and a scrubby hoodie.
On my reading pile: Still everything, but I did manage to read some more in National Dish when I was at Veteran's Affairs last week.
On my TV this week: Ella and I finished "Your Turn to Kill" (Netflix) and started "Below" (also Netflix) and also "Until the T-shirt Dries" (our current undubbed Japanese show, also Netflix). British Baking Show and Hell's Kitchen and Tokyo Revengers (all of which make me ridiculously happy)
On the menu: The aforementioned potato soup, homemade pizza, cube steak, meatball stew. It's all written in my bullet journal, but there's not really an order to it.
Looking around the house: We're switching seasonal clothes so things are in a bit of upheaval.
To-do list for the week: Work, work, work. Buy tickets for Rob-Con. Attend Rob-Con (t's a comic convention, and this is Goose's first year going). Do some things for the bed and breakfast. Start digging tubers.
What I am creating: A better me. A better body to house my soul. The tuber master list (which I am determined to finish before December so I can start my alleged off season)
Something fun to share: I don't know that it's necessarily fun, but I've started writing down deep thoughts and realizing where I've been self-sabotaging and things I need to let go of...and I think it's done me a lot of good. I understand myself a lot more.
From the camera:
The text on the mug means "good morning" in Polish, my native language.
Devotional, etc: Can all you ladies please pray for my best friend Tina? God knows the need, but other than my kids, I love her more than anything in this world. Thank you all so much. Also, I underlined this verse in my Bible today.
Have an amazing week!
