Lunch/Dinner: Veggie Tacos: Ground Mexican Veggie. Spinach. Red Pepper. Tomatoe. Avocado Topped with Allegro Probiotic Cheese :)

Snack: Popcorn - Homeade popped by myself! I refuse to buy movie theatre popcorn any longer. The last several times I have bought it - I got sick! So it's cheaper and a way healthier option.

Reflection/Inspiration:

BEANNACHT

For Josie

On the day when the weight deadens on your shoulders and you stumble, may the clad dance to balance you.

And when your eyes freeze behind the gray window and the ghost of loss gets in to you, may a flock of colors, indigo, red, green and azure blue come to awaken in you a meadow of delight.

When the canvas frays in the curach of thought and a stain of ocean blackens beneath you, may there come across the waters a path of yellow moonlight to bring you safely home.

May the nourishment of the earth be yours, may the clarity of light be yours, may the fluency of the ocean be yours, may the protection of the ancestors be yours.

And so may a slow wind work these words of love around you, and invisible cloak to mind your life.

Challenge of the Day:

Do something that has been on your TO DO LIST and get at least ONE thing checked off! It'll make you feel Grande.

An additional anecdote from my friend and Life Coach Sherri! Do it EVERYDAY!

Explore - Someplace, Something, or an aspect of yourself that is NEW.

Attack - As I mentioned above Get something off of that TO DO LIST!

Share - Whether it be paying forward a coffee, A smile on the street, Time with friends/Family.

You - Do something entirely for you. A treat. A class. A movie. Whatever makes you happy. Small Stuff!

EASY EASY EASY!!!
