Plan for going home

11 more days in South Dakota, and I need to start getting a plan together for returning home. Not for the actual getting there part, that is figured out. I am hoping that living healthy will be easier when I have my own space. A place to do yoga where my roommate isn't constantly rolling her eyes because she perceives it as "too religious". A place where I can easily access a grocery store and a kitchen where I can make healthy and diverse food options. Yes I really am looking forward to going home. The fiance and I have a happy little space (along with our roommate). But of course sometimes comfort breeds laziness. I am planning on doing a stuff detox as soon as I get home, hopefully I will be able to part with a lot of my possessions. I have too much, that is an undeniable fact. I'm hoping with the loss of clutter I will be able to free my mind enough for a more organized life to stick.

 I am just going to start working from the door in, also I am going to set aside my whole fabric stash and anything I don't sew through in the next 6 months is getting donated.Hopefully this will encourage me to get my ass in gear and sew through it but I can let the excitement of the past haunt the excitement of tomorrow. Also I am going to start re organizing my books, I might possibly get some new shelves, after talking to the roommates.

3. Practiced yoga for and hour.
4. Drank Peppermint Tea.
5. Sat down to write about my life again.
6. Cleaned up my room and made my bed.
7. Took time to read.
8. Started laundry.

Not So Good Things

1.  Ate two bowls of Jambalaya instead of the I needed not to be hungry.
2. Snacked instead of having lunch or breakfast.
3. Sat around and watched TV and searched the web.

Discouraged

I am feeling discouraged lately, as is trend with my life, as soon as I started living healthier I began feeling sick. It always feels this way. I feel on top of the world for a few weeks then I end up sick. I feel like I am not able to form a habit of healthy living. I also don't have my support system here to encourage me to push pass things like achy joints.
Maybe I need to start by making one new healthy decision a day....
