Getting my act together

I am sitting here, eating cereal, like every other morning, but I feel different for some reason. It is a good kind of different, and I'll hang on to this as long as I can.

I think it's most likely the result of cleaning my apartment yesterday. While it's not completely clean yet, the parts I have cleaned make a huge difference, notably the sparkling clean kitchen counters and the empty space where an overflowing pile of recycling had sat, glaring.

It could also be because today is my day off from working out, so I got to use the snooze button. Or could it be weighing in at 163.8 without working out? Maybe it's that work is less tense these days since I changed a few things in my workload, and I am starting to enjoy it again... Or perhaps it's just that it's FRIDAY!!!

Okay, now that I've stepped out of la-la land, I will talk about less esoteric matters. Yesterday I did the wrap thing again for lunch, this time from Anton&James. It was a tuna wrap with wasabi mayo and all sorts of healthy things, unfortunately their list of ingredients overlooked the chopped red onion scattered within the tuna salad. I picked each one out piece by piece because I was too lazy to complain. Had it not been for the onions, it would have been delicious. Dinner was a piece of beef lasagna and a salad. Quite yummy and satisfying for the entire evening.

Today's lunch will possibly be a salad or another wrap, and I will likely eat dinner at home since I have a lot more cleaning to do before my friend gets here tomorrow. Plus, I am selling my condo (yes, finally all the chaos is coming to an end, after this one last hurdle, I hope). So I need to pack, clean, install things, pack, pack and pack.

Oh and speaking of packing... another reason I may feel different is because I sorted my clothes and am throwing out nearly half of my wardrobe! I do this frequently, but usually the piles are small, and only clothes that have no chance of EVER being worn again. This time though, I made a full grocery bag of stuff to throw away, and another two bags full of stuff to donate to charity. My closet is now almost perfectly organized, and it makes me feel...lighter.

So though I have been complaining a lot lately, I have achieved almost every goal I set for myself, even if I may not be reaping all the benefits yet. I'm in this for the long haul, even if my blog journey comes to an end soon (I'll be sure to end with a bang!), and all the changes I have made will help me cope with the struggles of the next few months.

How did I get back to being in the clouds? haha! Okay, have a great day everyone. I've indulged long enough...
