How are the
monsoons guys? Has it started raining in your area? It’s been pouring here all
week, but today’s been quite sunny. Guess God just wanted everyone to enjoy
their day off :-).
1. Worked out on 3
days and went for brisk walks on two. All in all, not bad!
2. Controlled my
diet except for two dinners and one lunch.
3. Started tracking
my food and exercise in my android app
4. My prayers have
been fairly regular
5. Hired new help
for the house cleaning, so that’s going great!!
6. Been a better
blogger than previous weeks
7. Read a book – ‘Three
Act Tragedy’ by Agatha Christie
8. Made a craft
with Cub – a popsicle stick easel.
There are soo many
popsicle stick crafts out there, I think that’s going to be our ‘thing’ now!!
1. Watched way too
much TV
2. Wasted a lot of
time pinteresting
3. Fruit intake was
really down
Overall, this week
has been quite productive and I’m happy. I’ve also learnt a few life lessons in
the past month, the chief of which is that I need to just let go of some things
– feelings, people, stuff. I mean, no matter how much you try or cry, you just
can’t change others. You can’t make them think the way you do, and it isn’t
really fair to expect that of them. Letting go of that expectation just frees
you up in so many ways!
Another point is to
just trust in God. It’s comforting to know that there is Someone who can see
the whole picture and that He knows what’s what. When you just submit all your
troubles and worries to Him, you feel light and it’s like a huge burden has
been lifted off your chest. It’s so much easier to move on after that.
Whew, being all
serious does make one weary!! So here’s something that’s guaranteed to lighten
the mood – from none other than the most incorrigible cat on earth – Garfield !!!
