Oh my friends and family how I have missed visiting with you. Rather than quilt myself into posting, to be a negative Nancy while I was posting, I chose to just rest and take care of myself. It has felt good so good to focus on taking care of me. As I write it, it seems awful selfish but trust me sometimes we have to be selfish when it comes to taking care of ourselves. I have been far to forgetful about myself for way to long.
I have been taking a new course by Melody Ross called Soul Comfort. We are encouraged to do hard things as well as easy things. My hard thing was to make a surgery date for my hernia. I am happy to say that surgery time has past and I am recovering nicely. It sure does make getting out of bed interesting but I tell you what I am looking forward to not being in pain anymore. I am even looking forward to going to the gym when I receive my doctors release! Through this I have learned that I am way stronger physically than I thought I was. It makes me happy with myself.
This Christmas is going to be a bit different. Everything around here is low key this year and I am truly okay with that. I have even scaled back in gift giving which has made me feel pretty darn good. I have even been able to resist compulsive buying. I am finally becoming at peace within myself and it is so nice.
To you and your family, Merry Christmas! Take time for yourself this Christmas, it will make all the difference to those around you because you will be in a good mood.
