It is late but I can't sleep. I'm too excited! It's fun to be so excited about things again, my head racing with ideas of things I want to do RIGHT NOW! Being sensible and trying to sleep didn't work so now I'm just going to run with it.
Firstly - excited about the delicious breakfast I have planned for tomorrow morning before work, I can't wait to get out of bed and eat already!
Excited about taking banana bread to work and sharing it with Nicky.
Excited about eating some juicy juicy pineapple I cut up yesterday!
Excited about coming home and crocheting a few granny squares that will go towards my warm winter blanket.
Excited about clearing out my room, simplifying my life and throwing out a lot of stuff I really don't need.
Happy to have found these beautiful artworks on Lindy's blog:
'A New Beginning'
(originally titled 'The Journey that Gives Life'... which seems appropriate as I'm reading a book on the cycle of the Hero's Journey)

'Spirit Stone'
(this one makes me feel so grounded.)

'Travel Together'(How beautiful that he carries their home on his back! Like a snail!)
Deeply contented that I am maintaining my bubble of self care, looking forward to working deeper and deeper within myself, and having more quiet time. I'm really enjoying this solitude I am creating.
Reading 'Soulcraft' by Bill Plotkin and really enjoying it. I don't really want to try to explain it... but lately I've felt strongly drawn to shamanic practices, energy healing, and body wisdom, and I feel like this book is a step in the right direction for me. I can't see where this pull will take me but I'll just be moving forward one step at a time and see what unfolds.
ALSO! I'm excited about creating and living my life the way I WANT TO, with no limitations or shoulds, living an ABUNDANT life exactly the way I want, that fills me with love and joy and a sense of fulfilment and rightness!
I'm already starting this by saying NO to a lot of 'shoulds', like NO to full time work at the moment because self care is more important right now. And saying YES to the Universe, trusting that I will be provided for if I follow what is right for me.
Already I am living an abundant life! =)
