I got it right today, that balance between work and life, thank goodness!
.
I worked all morning and relaxed all afternoon and this evening, well I guess a little bit of both!
Working my computer to learn more about this blogging lark, the nuts and bolts of it. I always jump into the deep end, just to see if I can cope and, when I seems to be managing this, I begin to start casting about for ways and means of utilising the site I'm inhabiting, finding out what is meant by such and such a term, learning how to use certain tools and ideas for self-promotion and generally endeavouring to get beneath the skin of what I'm doing.
So while doing this, I've been watching some interesting TV, talking to Alice the dog and having supper. Mmm! a small jacket potato with butter and my tuna onion soured cream filling plus dried mixed herbs and sliced pickled walnuts. These are a Christmas treat which, generally, we do not have after Christmas for there's never any left - we both love them so much!!! So supper tonight was a real treat and we only ate when we were actually hungry, as opposed to eating because it's the eating time-slot! I'm a creature of habit and meal times fall into definite time-frame, unless I'm so frantically busy, when I "graze", which is not in fact, considered to be a good plan. You eat too much and often the food is not savoured or even tasted - it's just fodder to keep you going and, well occasionally, that's OK.
So if I don't eat, don't actually make a break with work, sit down and do something different while eating, like relaxing, reading a newspaper or watching TV, then I'm not really enjoying my food. Plus, if I don't stop, sit down and eat, I find myself "picking" or "grazing" all afternoon long,, which isn't any good at all!
So I think I've got it right today and that's great! I wonder how I'll get on tomorrow?
Byeeee for now
