Leashrly Life
Why am I like this? I’m far too old for it to be ‘cute’ anymore. I KNOW one thing in my head, but I ACT differently. I set myself up for failure by my all-or-nothing attitude, rather than taking things I want to change ONE STEP AT A TIME and then treating any problems/lapses/mistakes/weakness as an excuse to throw the day away, rather than looking at it and deciding to handle it differently next time. It’s embarrassing.
Yesterday I did well on my eating until my husband got out some chips after dinner. I wasn’t even particularly hungry, but like a lemming, I went into the pantry and got some chips, too. THEN, to compound the weakness, I proceeded to beat myself up mentally and emotionally.
I’m either ready for House Beautiful Magazine to come in and photograph or you can see tufts of dog hair wafting around as you walk across the dining area tiles.
I read a couple of articles yesterday on making improvements. It stressed not taking everything on at one time – making SMALL changes one at a time and building on that. I am TRYING to taking that to heart and practice that.
