I awoke this morning with a ton of things to do. The color run starts in 1.5 hours, house cleaning, doctor appointments, laundry, grocery shopping, meal prepping… and my family coming for a visit. The dog needed to be walked, the fur babies needed to be fed. I started my morning feeling overwhelmed. Silly. It’s a Saturday. My life isn’t dramatic. Yet I make it overwhelming. Me. I did that…

I took the dog out. Fed the animals. Made myself a lovely cup of Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate (coffee, IP chocolate drink mix, Walden Farms caramel syrup, cinnamon, ginger, cayenne pepper) and sat down.

It’s 6am on a Saturday morning. It is OK to relax. It is also ok to turn down the volume on life… I want to do something fun. I have things that need to be done… but no one is going to be hurt if some of it doesn’t happen! So I am taking a moment for me… and reminding myself that I can choose!

Choose healthy and choose happy!
