On the Mend...

Apologies for not posting as much Or as frequentlyOr as consistently lately I guess it's a good thing thoughAs it means my real life is full and busyAnd I don't have time to blog as muchThis week has been busy to say the leastAppointmentsThree meetings Horse riding It's all good right nowI slept like a log last nightAnd woke up this morningStill wrecked And my legsMan my legs are in such pain todayAll along the inside and outside of my thighsI feel like a did a strenuous exercise class It's sore But it's a good feelingAnd the tiredness is a good feeling tooIt feels like I've been active and energetic And that makes a rest feel well earned I've been on a high since my first session horse riding yesterdayI feel dare I say it, happy..Uplifted Re-energised Re-invigoratedAnd it feels amazing  To find something that I love to do is huge progress for meI've always loved animals And did a bit of horse riding over the years I feel like it's something I can really throw myself in to And even though it's an hour awayAnd a bit of an effort to get there It's so worth it to goAs I get so much out of it
I had my breakfast this morningAnd headed out with the dogs When I got backI sat down with a cup of tea And promptly fell asleep I woke up just in time to get to the local lunch time meeting Even though it would have been so nice to stay asleepI know I need my meetings right nowAnd what a lovely meeting it was Food for the soul And peace of mind for the brainAfter the meeting I went food shopping And then on to the village to see MaryIt was so great to tell her about all the good things that have happened this last couple of weeksI could see it in her eyesShe was delighted Mary always says that it's funny the way things happen My Mum coming in to the session last weekThe horse riding Meetings She always says that success breeds successAnd she is so right One good thing leads to anotherAnd so onAnd so on.....I feel like I have so much more energy nowAnd feel more positive It feels like anything is possible Recovery Work Friends Hobbies It's all there for meI just have to reach out and grab it
Of courseLife Recovery is not straight forwardI still have a lot of work to doMy food has improved, yesBut the purging is proving difficult to knock on the head I just have to keep tryingAnd hopefully I will get there All in allThings are heading in the right directionAnd I feel like if this can all happen in one weekThen what else can happen if I continue to persue recovery?
There are a few other exciting things happening in relation to Eating Disorders Awareness WeekWhich I will get to next week And am super excited about So until tomorrow my friends....
