How I got Stronger this week: Still doing Body Pump though I skipped Monday and I will say I’ve been doing more 15 minutes lately vs the 20. I’ve been tired and feel like I need a break a bit but I am unwilling to take a full break, so this is the compromise I’ve come to. It was a good week at work, too. Especially on Thursday, I worked from home and got a ton of work done. I spent time doing Physics with David and Math with Nathaniel. The one area I feel I am still not as strong as I’d like to be is the food. I’ve definitely been making choices that are not aligned with who I want to be and what’s in my best interest so I need to do a better job there but I am not sure how to help myself reset. Maybe this can be a major focus this next week?
Top Goals Review: finished the results doc and several others and the roadmap, yay! body pumped and thought about food but did nothing. spent time with david and almost done with his essay. didn’t make a new plan for N but we’re still doing math.
I celebrate: I celebrate some kind words at work this week.
I am grateful for: my kids, i am so lucky to have my kids.
Karen’s Points: doing the body pump. doing nothing else.
A Change I embraced: david was supposed to go to NYC this week for MUN conference but a bug storm canceled everything. So they couldn’t go and we all had to roll with it.
I let go of: my email this week, i lost track and wasn’t able to catch up.
Core Desired Feelings Check-in:
- Fresh: reading The Little Prince again and it’s all fresh and newly wonderful to me.

Where I chose Joy: i chose joy by going to my friend Evelyn’s bachelorette dinner. It was wonderful to see old friends.
I showed up for: david this week when he has a tough time with the change of plans.
A Mistake I made this week: nothing that stands out too much from this week.
What I tolerated this week: the low level of anxiety and two headaches. I haven’t had a headache in such a long time that it was extra unpleasant
My mood this week was: i’ve been feeling a bit disconnected still but working on it.
I forgive myself for: not showing up for Nathaniel’s school event, i felt really sad but he said he didn’t mind. i was working :(.
