I am Facebook sober for more than 24 hours. This should not feel like the accomplishment it does, but, well, it does feel that way. It’s not that I intend to quit Facebook, but in the interest of time and space, I needed to stay away from a bunch of Happy New Year bullshit. I don’t want to accidentally see his photos (or photos of him) and despite the fact that I have hidden him and most of his friends, I haven’t defriended anyone or blocked anyone, and I found that occasionally something slipped into my feed that I didn’t need to see. So until I can take some bigger steps to disconnect from that group of people, I will steer clear.
Yesterday was not a total wash. I worked three billable hours and got all my December billing done. I meditated for five minutes and took a 45-minute walk. The yoga studio was closed for New Year’s, but it’s back open today, and my yoga-every-day program will begin in a few hours. I had zero alcohol or foods from animals. I began knitting a cap with a loom I got for Christmas – it is easier than knitting with needles. Look for my Etsy stocking cap store soon (just kidding). I watched several episodes of Mozart in the Jungle and listened to a TED podcast on fear.
I also cried on and off and dealt with a migraine and took two naps.
Let’s hope today fares better.

Hope the whole year is much better. But day by day, yes - you are doing everything you can. Hope it gets easier soon. xx

Man, that's a more productive day than I have when not wounded! I love vegan but not very good at making time for cooking/prepping. Do you have any sources (web/cook book) that inspire you?

You are taking excellent care of yourself, honey.
