Day 6~ Mood is better!
After too many days of being Mz. Grumpyguss, I found myself singing and laughing and having fun with my kids today.
I can tell they are relieved to have me back.
I am relieved to have me back!
We went to the farm today to pick up our shares of raw milk and eggs. I love milk day, and look forward each week to coming home and having a glass of fresh-from-Sophie-the-Jersey-cow milk! Today when we got to the farm, there were no prepared bottles, but the farmer was there milking the cows, so the girls got to see how that process occurred and then we got to see how it all went into a holding tank, and our 1/2 gallon ball jars are filled from that. This milk was practically still mooing! I haven't had milk that fresh since high school!( my best friends dad was a dairy farmer) I would normally have been driven crazy with temptation to drink a large glass, or at least a big swig off the top of one of my kids' glasses, but today I wasn't. I guess the hunger has finally subsided. And my awareness of mind over matter has finally kicked in!
Or maybe it was that large glass of lemonade I had in the car with me!!!!
I feel confident that I will stick it out 10 days at least.
Tomorrow is day 7. I've been reading that that is when the deeper healing begins to take place. I feel so invested already( I've already made it through the hardest part), that at times I think I should just go for 21 or longer.
we'll see~
I made a great meal for my family tonight. I enjoyed the smells~
Looking forward to the next leg of the journey!
