It was an especially punishing few days. Daycare closed for a few days for a mystifying February break, and a stressful weekend scrambling to get a presentation together for a big meeting Monday afternoon. It was pure survival mode. What slipped: journaling, exercising, eating well/good, this course, meditation What didn't slip: staying off nicotine (but work stress is super triggering), a few long walks with the dogs, a generally positive and cheerful attitude. As much as I wish this week went differently, I can look back on it with pride and contentment. It reminds me that the process of finding my heart necessarily will lead me to challenging times (its in my action statement!) so I have an imperative to ride these waves gracefully.

I haven't been ultra consistent with posting daily, let alone following all the prompts for the February challenge, but I do read them and think about doing them! Yesterday's was one that I overthought, resulting in inaction. I know that there's a video/exercise on here called Procrastination Cascade... probably would be worth me checking out. My update: Still chugging along. 11 (I think?) days without vaping or smoking. Strength! Perseverance! Followed up with a production house that I applied to recently- got an interview with them this coming Monday. Would be a great opportunity to get my feet wet in a new line of work, so I really hope I get the job. Pray for me y'all.

Day 13?? I believe??? Without nicotine.

Yes...!
