Recovery Day
3 minute read
I am still a bit exhausted from bartending all Mother’s Day weekend – shout to out all the MILFs out there, they get my appreciation. Taking today to recover, read, recoup, and recalibrate.
I’m feeling really good again today (aside from fatigue) – I have really been enjoying my “progress” so far, and the improved mindset that comes with it. I’ve been basking in the feelings more so lately than the grind, though I feel I need to up my effort just a tad to keep going. All that being said, I give myself the permission to rest, to be happy with everything as is, and to enjoy the ride of life.
My chiro office (all women) today told me that they really appreciated how positive I am, and that they didn’t worry about me a bit (compared to other patients). They said they tend to have some patients come in who are complainers. Although small, I appreciate feedback like this… and again, I have received it (unsolicited) more recently than ever before in my life. My positivity is observable AND genuine – it’s not a pretense as much as it was when I was younger. Women especially are the ones to compliment me on this, which I can tell helps brings them to a greater ease.
WINS:
- Abs getting more and more visible… I forgot to eat over the weekend while working, so I slimmed off a little more. I’m at the level where a day of fasting makes me go from sorta abs to my abs being pretty visible. I almost have the middle crease visible-ish when I’m extra lean. I have a slight layer of pudge, but man, I’m feeling the leanness. I won’t report my BF % since I think my caliper measures are off, but nonetheless, those numbers keep trending downward, which is desired.
- Finna to go do my gymnastics-lite workout
- More reading…
- Although not a goal of mine atm, my money is pretty good right now with all my working lately. I didn’t feel like I had really been working until I checked my bank account, so that’s good to see. Definitely helps add some peace to my life
- My new bike is finally ready for pickup! I’ll get it soon (old bike was stolen)
- Most recent tat and piercings are healing up great… got complimented with a smile that I looked like a metalhead while bartending (from some other hot, edgy customers – unfortunately they quickly got a table and didn’t hang at the bar long)
- Sunday date flaked… honestly for the best. I was tired af yesterday, and my back was excruciating from being on my feet so much. I’ll let her cool off and re-engage later… her last text was “Just don’t break my wrist, I expect ya to hurt me a liiittle.”, so I know she’s interested. All about being cool, not needy, and higher value to nail this one down
