Sunday Morning

– Happy Sunday morning? I woke up at 4.00am exactly and wasn’t able to fall asleep again. Why? There had better be a nap in my future, or I’m going to want to go to bed at, like, 8.00pm tonight.
– I’ve been realizing little by little how tense I am. I mean, it’s not a recent affliction; it’s more that I’ve decided, ‘Hm, that’s not right. Or that. Or that.’ For example: I bite the inside of my cheek when I’m anxious and lost in thought. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night to find I’ve been doing that in my sleep, and I’ve got a painful cheek with temporary tooth impressions.
– I reactivated my gym membership at the beginning of the month (I suspended it over the summer), so I’ve been getting back into that routine. I like to go mid-morning, shower afterwards, and eat lunch at a coffee shop while working on my laptop. The egg salad sandwich above is what I brought for lunch on Friday; the egg is from a free range chicken that a coworker of my mom’s keeps, and the bread is homemade. I haven’t been eating toast/bread all that much lately, but I had half a loaf in the freezer.
– I went to Mill Ends the other day to look for skirt-making material, and I wound up walking out with a few yards of quilting fabric. Fabric stores are tricksy! I did, however, find a nice Gap skirt the next day at a thrift store. For three dollars. So perhaps it was for the best.
– I’m going to see if the Sunday paper has arrived yet, so I can gather up coupons and go to the supermarket. Might as well do something if I have to be awake.
