Great morning. Despite a headache, I stayed focused, calm and was able to achieve a lot.
So I'm taking the afternoon off. Just went to start cleaning the kitchen and for some reason, I felt disrupted (perhaps the energy boost from my carrot soup) I became more "excited", I don't know why (I've always been a big kid really) Unfortunately, mindfulness out the window, 2 minutes in and I scraped my finger on a sharp part of the wall near the sink.
The cut is DEEP! Ugh, so now I'm sitting here moaning with my plaster on. I suppose I'd better go downstairs and this time, pace myself and mindfully finish the job!
Argh, it was going so well!
I hope your finger, and the rest of you, is feeling less painful this morning ?

Don't blame your carrot soup .

I made carrot soup a few days ago and it was awful for some reason. Maybe the carrots are conspiring against us....

Especially tinned carrots. They are on their own little axis of evil.

I eat a lot of carrots, both raw and cooked. They're good for your eyesight. I'm able to see through brick walls and around corners on the strength of my daily carrot fix.
