A Pep Talk for Me

Getting back into the non-holiday routine is rough, so I need a little pep talk from myself. First here's how I'm feeling and then the correlating happy thoughts:
  • Annoyed that I couldn't wake up earlier than 6:15 AM, which meant that I didn't get to work out this morning.
  • My hips hurt today, as I'm PMS. I've been spotting for three days. My temp dropped today, so I'm sure it'll be here full force tomorrow.
  • Frustrated that I've been working hard all day, and I still have much more to do.
  • I didn't get much personal planning done last night.
Here's the things I know I should be happy about:
  • The sun is out for the first time in three days, and I might be able to exercise tonight by walking the dog. I think I may need to make some yoga time as well.
  • I may have some of my PMS symptoms gone. No stomach/digestion issues, and I haven't been exhausted.
  • I'm employed, I like my job, and I'm working very hard to stay on track with what needs to be completed.
  • I did do my nails last night and relaxed. They look really good, so I wore my favorite emerald ring on today. Oohh! and one of my favorite funky necklaces with a moon face and hand on it. DH bought it at some "New Age" shop near his office last year. He knows I love that stuff!

We still don't have any offers on our current house!!!! Please send good house offer vibes our way.

Also, please keep my friends K&G in your thoughts and prayers. She had a blood test that confirmed she is pregant, but then at work last night she was spotting. She called the doctor and he said to stay off her feet and not go to work today if she still was spotting (she's an OR nurse and can't be off her feet at work!). I really want this to work out for her. I wish all my friends could have no issues having their babies. Especially so I can play with them and babysit! Sometimes I secretly remember how nice it is to be the "Cool Aunt."

I feel a little better so now back to work!

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head.  I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true.  This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either.  Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure.  I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week.  This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...
