a little bit of therapy
last night I woke up just after 2 am to go to the bathroom and with in moments my head exploded with the most horrible headache. I laid back in bed and thought I might be able to fall asleep.... unfortunately my head just kept pounding. I decided to head downstairs to take some vitamin I, and then I realized I wanted to do Pilates. Weird eh. It's been almost a month since I've made it to class. My body craved the routine of Pilates. I headed back to bed but my craving for exercise didn't subside. I woke up realizing that I have successfully incorporated exercise into my daily life.
I woke up this morning with the same horrible pounding in my head. My sweet Mitch woke up with endless amounts of energy and I couldn't come close to match his energy. All I wanted to do is lay in bed and rest and wish my headache away. Finally I managed {with the prodding of Mitch} to roll out of bed, let the boys back out and eat some breakfast. As we discussed our day, I began to feel a little better and wanted to get a few things accomplished in the yard before I made my way into work.
working in my yard has become a wonderful form of therapy for me. I've been gathering a beautiful collection of plants on my back patio for the last few weeks. my goal was to get them all planted sooner than later and luckily with the cloudy weather I was able to finally get some in the ground. spending the morning getting my hands dirty in my yard seemed to be exactly what I needed. planting, weeding, digging and watering.
my mood is yo yo-ing lately. waking up on the wrong side of the bed, finding a happy balance for a few hours, dragging through the afternoon and then making it home with who knows what mood.... grateful to spend another evening at home and spend Sunday resting up.
