Thursday Virtual Dinner Partner

I ran felt like I did a lot of nothing today and I was busy all day. I finally got my car back from the garage. It had major maintenance work...expensive major maintenance. I am relieved to have the work done but getting car work usually makes me anxious. Mostly the cost makes me anxious. This job took forever too. It took a couple of days and the car was supposed to be done in this morning but they ran into a problem so they weren't done until late today....causing more anxiety. Also making my plans for walking in the woods impossible. That was a major frustration.

My menu choices were uninspired today. Seems I have been eating the same breakfast and lunch for weeks now. I need to make a trip to the grocery store to buy vegetables. I am not getting nearly enough. Too much is happening with holiday plans and my self care is getting squeezed to the side. I need to make it through the next few days and find good ways to stay on course while I do that.
