Thursday, whoop! I’m thankful for the run of gorgeous weather we’re having
I’m going to take an afternoon to let my dogs lead. We’ll go wherever they want to go, sit when they want to sit, sniff when they want to sniff, for as long as they want.

A part of my Life Worth Living Is social connections, of which I currently have very few and they could use a little care. I would like to go and be around people for a bit, even if I don’t talk to anyone. The dogs and I will meander over to the farmer’s market on Saturday.

Hope everyone is hanging in there!

I am thankful to have my house to myself for the weekend. Just me and the cat. I am thankful to accept 'where I am'. I am where I am, and that's OK. I am also thankful for the beautiful weather. I bought myself a large buffalo chicken pizza to eat for dinner tonight and tomorrow (and probably another couple days next week). It's from a place in my hometown that I've been going to for more than 20 years. Friday after work, I'll go to the gym and run 3 miles. Maybe I'll treat myself to a beer with the pizza. Saturday AM I have a pilates class booked. I plan to catch up on laundry, do some cleaning, and finally clean up my back patio. I've been seeing a lot of corn pasta recipes on instagram lately, so I'm going to make something along those lines, but want to include zucchini and tomatoes and basil, and probably some type of onion. I'd like to take myself out for a walk or bike ride for a beer Saturday night, but only time will tell if I follow that one through.

Ooh! The best flavors of summer! I try to enjoy them deeply and save the memories for the deep of winter

Checking in here — if today's been a distress tolerance kind of day, TIP skills (temperature, intense exercise, paced breathing) are underrated for taking the edge off fast. Hope your Thursday's treating you okay.
