It's the fourth day of Lent. No more headaches!! The Daniel Fast is going very well food-wise, but I'm struggling with the spiritual aspects: journaling, meditating, etc. This I hadn't expected. But, vegan isn't so bad. I'm not eating as much because a lot of my options no longer exist. And, I met my aunt for dinner last night at a place that had a vegan section of the menu. Sweet.
It was bizarre Friday afternoon knowing that I couldn't have a soda and candy bar as a reward to surviving my first day of centers. Same with looking at amazing desserts. Right now, it's not tempting to me. It's off limits. It feels like crushes that I had in school-- the boy was so unattainable it didn't really matter.
Today I did some yoga to relieve my aching neck and shoulders-- and it worked. Then, I went to bookclub to discuss Strout's Abide with Me, which two of the three of us weren't into. So, the discussion was good but just not about the book. But, I love chatting with the women. We decided on Chesterton's Orthodoxy for next month. Now, that's a book that excites me.
Then, K and I hiked Pinnacle Mtn. the shorter, steeper trail at Crowder's Mountain. It's in the 60s-- it was so lovely and crowded. Now, I need to go home and clean, write my feature article, organize my schedule for next week (study, work, class, apply to jobs, workout, plan food), laundry, eat. Then, I'll read or watch a movie!
