so... i did cardio the other night for the first time in two months (couldn't because of my dislocated foot).. it felt SO good! i'm excited to get back into it!



which led me to think of other things i have not been consistent with that feel good...

SPOILERS! (Click to view)

like yoga. my depression has gotten less and less over the years since i've been yoga-ing. or yogaficating, whichever you prefer. tongue but since my foot i haven't done much. i haven't done hardly any deep breathing or meditating either, usually my yoga time takes care of that, but i've been thinking, oh i'll do yoga later.. then i don't do it... no wonder i've been uptight, in body, mind and spirit..

no wonder i've been feeling so out of balance! now that cardio doesn't hurt, and i've realized i've been slackin on the yogafication, i'll be consistent with the two and that should improve my outlook a lot.



speaking of helping my outlook,
i'm still on the hunt for a method of birth control that
-actually prevents pregnancy like it's supposed to
-does NOT make me barf for the first two weeks
-does NOT make me depressed and crying for the last two weeks.
i think i've gone through at least ten different kinds in the last eight years.
good thing there are a few options left, eh?



oh yeah, back to things i haven't been doing lately.
here's a BIG one:
i haven't been feeling GRATEFUL!!!
hell-ooooooo!
no wonder it feels like a switch has been flipped lately.



how about some regular gratitude sessions, starting right now:

things to be thankful for:
-sunshine
-air conditioning
-homemade chocolate chip cookies
-netflixing awesome chick flicks and musicals
-catching up on sleep
-a wonderful family to miss and visit
-a steady job
-happy, pretty houseplants
-getting ready to go back to school on my own terms
-my boo
-the dishes are done
-good advice from people who know me best
-i get to go to a family wedding this sunday! i love weddings!

lauper:
Thank you very much smile

As for birth control, in England we have something called Microgynon 30, its very good so if you can get ahold of it I'd recommend it! x
