Unsuccessful attempts.

Day One

So today, I didn't get half of what I wanted to get done, but that’s life- right? Last night I told myself, “I’m gonna wake early tomorrow, go outside, and jog. Next I’m going to thoroughly clean my entire house, make a natural hair tutorial vid, and then I’m going to cook dinner EARLY, pray, meditate, bathe, sleep.” None of which happened, at least not how I wanted it to.

I did manage to wash most of the laundry, go grocery shopping, make some delicious tortilla soup (a recipe I will share with you in a separate post), and get my restroom REALLY clean with the help of my Hubbs. But enough of me listing my many achievements, my takeaway from today is a lesson that has come to me many times before, and that lesson is. . . don’t make unrealistic expectations for yourself. Plan for a reasonable workload and execute those tasks to the best of your ability. I was so focused trying to do so many things, that I only made a small impact on my overall goal, which was upsetting, but I have calmed down and I am ready for tomorrow. One step at a time Morgan, breathe, breathe. Not a whole lot to report today. I feel exhausted.

Oh I also did manage to be more thoughtful of my husband today; I gave him many kisses, and just did things that I knew he wanted without saying. It made me feel good to see the happiness that my actions brought him. It’s the little things you know? Love Better

I have a confession to make.

Yesterday I kinda ate more “freely” as a sort of farewell or going away party to my bad eating habits. Courtney, Ayden and I had a lovely dinner at Saltgrass Steakhouse, and we ate till we were stuffed. It was glorious!

Moment over.

Back to eating well.

Speaking of eating well here is a pic of that yummy tortilla soup I cooked tonight. It took me less than  30 minuets to make. (Be Jelly)

YUM!



I want to leave you with a task for today and every day on. You know that awkward moment when you meet eyes with someone you don’t know- smile at them, because you never know what your acknowledgment of their existence can do for their life, and yours.
