I was eager to lie down and do my body-scan meditation. I closed the door so my dog couldn't run around and firmly told her No when she started to fuss and she settled right down.
This morning i didn't go back to bed for the first time since Spring. I also took a shower for the third day in a row. So nice to have fluffy hair.
Exhausted now tho and can't tolerate TV, radio, or anything.
Hugs to all who struggle!

I am just SO pleased how you are taking charge and improving your situation, whatever!! Real cooking is the one thing I really don't manage well, so I'm very impressed with yours -- enjoy your stew! Which I'm sure you will with mindfully eating it -- the flavors, the textures, the pride in accomplishment.

Excellent job!!
