Update time. This week has gone really well.
Monday I was caught off guard and was forced to stray from my 'normal routine.'
Normally, on my Monday I get up early and super clean the bathroom, kitchen, floor, house and vacuum. I knew we had dinner reservations at 7 for Cliffhouse but had planned on doing my normal thing until then.
Then surprise Trav's grandparents show up at noon! I was for sure scattered for about a half hour, then I realized I could still get dressed, do my hair, while chatting and not losing my mind.
Then we spontaneously went to Poppe's for appetizers and drinks. So I went with it and had an amazing time. THEN, went back to Poppes with my mom for drinks, THEN went to DINNER at Cliffhouse! We had a fabulous time, when we got home it was around 8 and we relaxed a bit, then we decided to go out! This is NOT NORMAL for me, especially after having dinner at a restaurant.
Anyway, it was successful day full of lots of good conversation and was spontaneous.
Tuesday I was stoked for our BBQ, I went with a Greek theme and put together an oliver and veggie plate. We had a great turnout and had lots of yummy food, then even went out dancing after. LOTS of dancing. At home we had some more snacks then went to bed.
Then here comes Wednesday (The dreaded guilt filled, shame filled, regret filled day that tends to follow fun days). Well did I feel like shit? Yes. Did I feel guilty? Yes. But I went against every ounce of what I usually do and just tried to be with myself. At home instead of retreating to bed immediately, I stayed up, had some cereal and a little bowl of ice cream, watched 'It's Complicated' with Travis and had a wonderful night.
Basically I'm trying to mix things up.
