Relaxing before bed

Fourteen hour work day on Saturdays. And that's today! Well technically, yesterday, but I haven't gone to bed yet.
I'm feeling content all nestled up in bed under about four layers of covers, the room gently lit by a candle. Ahhh. Sigh of relief. Good job Alicia.
The day went pretty smooth. I enjoyed some Tea and Sudoku in the morning while watching Avatar with three really content kids. It started the day off easy and enjoyable. I actually spent most of my day sitting down. I was so excited to run up and down the stairs a few times during break and it gave me so much wonderful energy after sitting around. I also did over 100 calf raises at work and took two yoga breaks in the bathroom. I am loving some of the flows I've been learning. They kept me feeling very present, balanced, and centered.
I was proud that I didn't scrape my plates clean of food and I was able to leave a bite of four out of 6 foods on my plate, which is a huge accomplishment.
After work, I did 75 squats while rocking Lucy to sleep. I didn't get as deep as I would have liked but Lucy weighs at least twenty something pounds. Everything evens out! My best accomplishment was 15 unassisted push ups, and how I didn't struggle to bang out the last few. I really noticed an improvement from all of push ups I've done the past days in a row. Not too much to report in today, but nothing horrible! Yay decent days:)
