Recovery Day & Planners ❤️

Good Evening!❄️
I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and it was filled with family, love and laughter! For me, It was an amazing Christmas with family and friends. I am beyond blessed to have the ones I do in my life. That said, something felt missing and I am not exactly sure what that is. Don't get me wrong, I loved every minute, lots of laughter, hugs, and amazing food. I just went to bed feeling like something was missing if that makes sense.

Today I am exhausted physically and mentally. I have been on the go for a week solid and today it caught up to me. I slept in later than usual. I woke at 9:15 and for me, that's sleeping in lol. I have not done anything today aside from running to the store for milk, for my tea and to be honest? I have loved every minute of my downtime today. I had leftovers for dinner that were sent home with me and that made for the perfect, easy dinner lol. Today I cleaned my kitchen and snuggled in my bed reading a book. It was a perfect recovery day lol.

I received a call from my friend who works at the women's shelter. She told me the gift bags I made were a hit. She told me it made many of them smile and a few tears. She had told me a few left as they had residency last minute so they had extra gift bags if I wanted them back. I told them no, please gift them either between the ones there or any that come before New Years. I am SO happy they made someone's day a bit better.

This holiday had me snacking a bit more than usual but I am getting back on track. I have not really wanted sweets lately. I have craved sandwiches lol. Ever since I was ill 3 weeks ago, I want sandwiches and healthy food but this Christmas I admit to diving into the baked goods and sweets not because I wanted them but more out of habit. I think kicking this habit will be easier this year as I really don't want it. Tomorrow I will toss out what's left of the baked goods or take them to my friends aside from what my daughter wants but she's not a fan of sweets.

I bought my planner and gratitude journal for next year and I am excited to get to work on them. I love fresh planners. New colors and fresh pages creating a year of memories!😍 If you know me, you know I am a planner girl. I need that structure in my life. I wasn't always a planner girl but I found many years ago when I was freshly out of a D/s relationship, I missed the structure bdsm brought me and struggled through day-to-day life without that structure. I missed the routine and accountability I kept. That's when I started to use daily planners. It held me responsible for the day-to-day of my life. I have always journaled and I have paper diaries that go back from my childhood well into my adult years. I have kept every single one in numerous Tupperware containers in my basement. All full of a mixture of daily babbles to poetry. Even while keeping a planner, I have been in a D/s relationship but I never stopped tracking my day-to-days. Writing in my planner is therapeutic. I think 2023 is going to be an amazing year. I strongly feel we will all feel some relief in 2023. I intend to make it the best despite the current happenings in the world. More living, less stressing.

Off to curl up and read some more....

Have a beautiful night!💜
