WIAW: Rebooting

by LCCotter on June 27, 2012

Well friends, poor little laptop is still getting rebooted. Luckily the hubs is letting me borrow his. Although the space bar doesn’t work unless you push down it really hard. It sounds like I am angry at the computer when I type. Hmm, maybe I am.

Nah, in fact, it’s all good. I’m thinking this is going to be my reboot week. Rebooting my own little system here.

  • Rebooting my priorities
  • Rebooting my thought process
  • Rebooting my time connected/disconnected
  • And so on….

You see, I think we all get to a point where we can either stay busy, stressed, and “unproductive.”

OR….

We can just STOP.. REBOOT.. and just on being productive, with a hint of GRACE. Yes?

I like that so much better anyway.

Productive with a hint of Grace… here goes!

That being said, I’m not wasting anymore time here today. Just a little WIAW, and I might have thrown in a little What I Worked Wednesday as well, hence the trail picture.

In random order here folks. New food finds, new kombucha and wine to try, new trails to hike, new healthy bites, fresh figs, and just good eatin’.

Dairy Free/Gluten Free/Nut Free Healthy Bites.

Berry Lemon Crunch and Chocolate Cherry Chia.

So good!

It really is so important to just stop and reboot sometimes isn’t it? Tomorrow is my rest day so definitely a reboot!

We love the little sardines in our household, a good source of Omegas :-) My rebooting is actually switching over to evening workouts/runs and having more slow-paced mornings. Sometimes you *need to sleep in* – it does the body good.

I love your post! Got a little taste of rebooting having din din w/ a friend last night. Was so nice just talking & relaxing for once. I’m purposing myself to do that more. Take time out of the day to just… BE and not “be doing something” haha. W/ school, work & healthy living can be a challenge but as you said living & striving for GRACE & PEACE within ourselves is important. Thanks friend :-D

Fresh figs…I need to get some! I’m trying to enjoy the rest of the week with just Tony and I. I can’t say life is any less crazy without the kids here, but we are taking time each day to slow down a little and just enjoy some good eats and conversations together. I’m glad you’re rebooting! We all need a little reboot every once in a while.

After you mentioning the stuck space bar, all I could notice was how many spaces there were in your post and how many times you had to pound the space bar. Hope your computer get mended soon!

Kosmic Kombucha – where did you find that? HEBs in my area have been out of GT’s. I make my own, but I like to pick up a bottle when I’m out sometimes.

no rebooting for me, today, but i think the hub’s computer is trying to tell you something – it’s time to push yourself harder to create that space! space for yourself to move and breathe freely, to fully expand and inflate yourself with the stillness of peace!

How is the new Kombucha? When I try new ones, I rarely like them as well! Glad you are rebooting – I need to do it too. July’s going to be a whole new month literally and figuratively for me!

I kept meaning to respond to you earlier – meeting my calorie needs Monday and Tuesday did not go so well, but today was much better. I can only take things one day at a time, though, and I’m encouraged by today’s success! How are you doing?
