Today, I got home...and at first, I kept pushing myself. I'm good at that. I had laundry in and food cooking. I was gathering dishes from around the house
Just a minute, I have to take a moment to vent....my ex just knocked on my door to get my son for volleyball. Seriously....guess he probably forgot his phone? Just not what I needed tonight. Him looking in my front glass. AAAAArrrrrrggggghhhh!!! Just when I think that I don't have to think about that anymore.
Ok, back on track. I got dishes near the dishwasher, wiped counters, made the dinner....and started stock for soup tomorrow. But, I was weary. And finally, I got in bed. And after a friend brought me tylenol, I went to sleep. Really asleep. And I have been in bed most of the rest of the day. I did some grading...not much...in bed. And I've watched a couple of shows. But, mostly, I've slept and lounged around. And my body is feeling better for it. As is the rest of me. :)
I feel such an obligation to do it all. To do it right. I feel embarrassed that my home isn't tidy. It's hard for me to give myself that kind of rest. But, I managed to do it today. It was a gift and I needed to embrace it as one.
I hope that you are finding rest today...of body and of heart.
blessings.
