Day 1453 a much calmer Wednesday ♥️

I had a great nights sleep apart from one thing…. I decided it was a good idea for a Khaleesi to sleep in with us.

Instead of heading to her room for bed, she stood at our closed door and looked at me with the saddest eyes…. And I caved! 😂😂😂

She had my covers all night…. But it must have only woken me a few times, or I would have moved her. I just couldn’t get enough cover out from under her, for my left arm! She was very happy though.

There was a lovely red sky this morning.

On national Unicorn Day 🦄😂

I am much calmer today.

I feel much better that I have some trips booked for when I’m away. I still have lots of concerns and anxieties but I know that that’s all they are.

I’ve called my travel insurance to make sure I’m covered, got Craig to check our mobile phones are covered under our mobile phone insurance, I’ve told both banks I’m going to Italy…. Craig said I worry too much!!

Has he met his wife?!?!? 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

My bag is mostly packed. I’ll finalise more tonight. I also want to look at a map of Rome and get my bearings.

Hmmmmm…. I am really looking forward to some sunshine. ☀️☀️☀️ Sunday is the hottest day…. This’ll do nicely!

Actually that’s gonna be pretty hot considering it’s about 6.5°C today. It has rained ALL day today. Everything looks soaking wet. The sky is so heavy and foggy.

I’ve had a good day. It’s been a good week at work. A good buzz.

I also made another lovely, colourful dinner tonight….. Sticky Teriyaki Tofu Bowl With Purple Sprouting Broccoli & Pickled Cabbage Over Sushi Rice.

I think Freya is actually licking her lips!

I’m listening to another Mel Robbins podcast, called What Makes a Good Life.

She said that when she was younger she spent way too long looking at the curtains, deciding on the brand and the fabric… she never looked out at the view.

Wow.

That really spoke to me.

Until I was off sick, I never stopped to look out at the view. Now material things don’t really mean anything to me. It’s such a lovely feeling to want less rather than constantly wanting more.

We will not always be happy.

We will have days where we are far from happy. There will be days that are incredibly sad, days where things seem impossible to overcome, but as my friend Ruth has always said to me, we will survive 100% of these days. As awful as they seem, these are the moments that define us.

Dare to be Happier on FB shared this.

The way to happiness is to spend time building healthy relationships with others…. Says she heading off on holiday alone 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

All very wise words.

Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
