Almost the Weekend

Hey, A.

I’m doing okay, thanks…and you needn’t thank me for anything.

It’s snowing but it wasn’t enough for either a delay or early release…and therefore today is just dragging by. It can’t be 2 soon enough, even though I have no big plans for the weekend other than to take down my tree and get my decorations back in storage. I just want it to be the weekend, for this first week back to be over (and out of its misery). I will probably go to the gym this afternoon, then home to relax a bit before going out for dinner for my weekly steak. Tomorrow will be the big take down, and Sunday I think, after my morning workout, I’ll just nest--have a nice big breakfast and mimosas, watch the Pats playoff game with more mimosas, and then make some yummy lentil soup.

So proud of you for saying no! It takes a lot of practice to get comfortable honoring yourself…eventually it won’t feel like so much of an effort to do what’s right for you. Think about that. We spend so much time pleasing other people, it’s an often an uncomfortable effort to do what’s right for us. That, my friend, is seriously f—ed up. But we’re making progress, right?

Hope you enjoy both your dinner tonight and checking “dinner with KB and crazy husband” off your list of things to do this year… Have a great weekend!

Love,
Barb

PS Did you get to Pier 1?
