another typical day in the life of sheryl craig. hoping tomorrow is a little smoother. at least i don't feel like i'm going backwards, just feel like i'm standing still. going for the double workout tomorrow. CW and Kinetic.
i've collected my thoughts and reflected on many of the week's events and the view of this new life is becoming clearer. i'm beginning to have newer understandings of the next steps that may be ahead for me. some of these concepts make me sad while other thoughts kinda sound exciting. is this what acceptance is? did a double workout today, and taking monday off.
a little yoga a walk in the hood with paula and rita an indulgent afternoon saying yes much needed time with important friends some honey-do household check-ins with the spillmans dinner, chocolate, wine and a homemade vanilla bean pineapple vodka with kristi p. i didn't give much thought about the previous nor the next week. i lived today, and today only. circuit works at 8a (carol, sydney, stephanie) and dance it out with susan, (and maybe paula).
after dropping off morgan at her NFTY retreat in malibu (Hess Kramer) this afternoon, i pulled over to the side and had to capture a quiet hopeful moment. the birthday continued today when i had lunch with elizabeth who gave me a gift of trust. and dinner out with an old friend who is new again...lots of snappy conversations, unguarded exchanges and the dodgers. yogahop at 7a, and possibly a run on the beach tomorrow afternoon.
i woke up with the weight of the world on my shoulders: glenn's burdens and absence his lack of responsibility and accountability his inability to help me it was hard to stop crying today. i reached out for help as best as i could, and thankfully these people were there for me...so i didn't feel too alone. looking forward to CW and Soul tomorrow.
maybe the best and worst birthday ever. it started out with a FB & email message from my sister. many texts, emails and phone calls and messages followed. threads of conversations continued throughout the day. worked out with beth, justin, sonia, josh, tana at burn, and a surprise pop-in to starbucks by wah brazillian wax balloons, roses and more roses deluscious cookies, 3 chocolate cakes and a chocolate cupcake from vanilla a sees scotchmallow toast and hug with morgan brunch with hollye lunch with grandma (see pic below) cards, gifts, quiet love, tender wishes and inspiration memories of past birthdays music video birthday wishes: Rhianna Birthday Cake & Britney Work Bitch (see below) real and honest conversations cuddle with sara while laughing to modern family shared birthday celebration with lynne moscow mules, truffle french fries and sliders at chaya venice fantasies and realities
