I’ve been thinking a lot about why I felt such relief at the end of the day yesterday.
Why did I feel my body relax when my dentist appointment was done and the cleaner finished cleaning my house?
Maybe because I don’t like going to the dentist or the doctor for anything (and I’m anticipating my 6-month checkup with my hematologist in a couple of weeks?). I do like having my house cleaned, though!
I think the anticipation I’d felt the day before got the better of me as I went around making sure the house was ready for the cleaner and that I was ready for my dentist appointment.
On the other hand, I was looking forward to today’s self-care dates, some might call then indulgent, for my hair and a mani-pedi.
So, here I am at my appointment. Waiting to be pampered on the Friday before I go back to school.

Ahhh there’s nothing better than a clean house and fresh nails for the finale of your spring break. I hope next week goes smoothly!

Thank you, Chris. Getting myself pumped to make sure next week goes as smoothly as possible. Listening to an interview with Shelley Harwayne this morning was part of that.

I share your feelings. Anticipating things I don’t want to do can be worse than actually doing them. I”m glad you are enjoying some good things too!

Thank you, Lisa. I just need to remember to live in the moment. It’s the hardest thing for me to do, but I know it’s the best practice in the long run.
