I feel like I'm already failing at this challenge. I haven't felt well, I am constipated, nauseous, have constant headaches, etc... This has been my week. I think it's stress related, so I'm not associating it with this challenge, but I will say this challenge has allowed me to think about how to address these concerns with my body without food. It has really allowed me to realize my 'me time' is so limited, rushed and pretty much non-existent. So....
I crafted today. All day, I'm still crafting. I took a break to write this before midnight so I posted on the right day. I am on a roll, I am enjoying what I love and the several hours of dishes can wait until tomorrow or even Monday. It felt amazing to be crafting with family all day, shop at 3 craft stores and then head home to do more crafts. I love crafts. It's a soothing activity for me to use my hands and be creative without limits.
I am finding more and more time for myself and understanding that all the house chores will be there and my body is begging for a break from responsibility. I don't even have all the people in mind I want to give these crafts to- some are even for next years craft shows already (200 hair ties I made today).
Back to my creativity. I'm looking forward to eating my meals relaxed tomorrow. Today aside from breakfast they were rushed.
With love from IE day 5,
Alyssa
