Challenge 22: Call Frigidaire

February 3, 2010

I'm still having a heck of a time getting my butt out of bed. I'm missing those mornings of yore where I just popped out, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, at 8 or 8:30. Because now that I can't get out of bed before 9, I just feel like a big loser, wasting time. I'm up now Technically. My tea is brewing on the stove and Vaughn is out with the dog. Today feels like a busy day, although I don't have a ton of things on my calendar. I suppose the undercurrent of worry is still there. Maybe that's why I wanted to stay in bed. Hmmmmmmm.....

On a lighter note, I am happy to say that I really enjoyed my challenge yesterday. I liked that is wasn't just "Don't Worry," but that I gave myself something else to do when I started to worry. And not just something else, but something else that was positive that changed the energy of what I was thinking about. And, if nothing else, I was able to sit in a place of gratitude and that just felt wonderful. Some of the things I was grateful for:

My family and their support
Being able to go to College
Coaching
Lily
My relationship
My beautiful house
Coach and Bucket
My job
Facebook, for allowing me to keep in touch with friends
Vaughn's family
The bay area

and so on.

I'm also happy to say that I have kept the cracking of my knuckles to a minimum, and I don't even think I cracked them at all yesterday. It's starting to not even occur to me. And who would have thought that would happen in less than two weeks?! It's something I've been doing since I was a kid.

So today I meet with my new coach, I have some puzzles to write, some tasks to do for my work, and various to-do list items.
There's one task that I have just been procrastinating on for awhile now, so I'm going to make that my challenge for the day.
