Thoughts and Feelings

* With Karen ill, I have unexpectedly spent the day at home looking after the kids, which throws the usual routine out the window. Despite this, I managed to squeeze in some exercise by walking to collect the girls from nursery.

* Bizarrely, I still got dressed for work and sat around in my work clothes all day.

* Not being at work brings its own anxiety. I am not ill and so I feel like  a fraud or a cheater being off. Family of course comes first ( I almost threw in a should there). The fact that my mindset doesn't automatically do this, prioritising work over all else, is interesting and, as mindfulness teaches, I will not judge it. 

* I wrote a blog yesterday expressing a few things that were on my mind. Reading it back is uncomfortable, there are thoughts and feelings expressed which I find embarrasing to have put in the public domain. But there were things that needed saying. No regrets.

* It is very difficult cooking food for other people when trying to resist it yourself.

* Declines - chips, ice cream

* I really fancy a burger.
