Just Say Yes!

I think I need to start saying “yes” to things that I might normally say no to.

I feel stuck in a loop of big emotions like regret, guilt, worry, impatience (among other things like abject terror and existential dread) and my instantly-intense feelings are battling against the geologic timelines that other people are on. I think trying new things might help me get unstuck.

It could be as simple as trying the little taqueria by the car repair shop, rather than going to that one place that has that one thing I consistently like.

Perhaps I should try winter sports again! I sucked so bad at skiing both times I attempted it. How do you even fail at falling down a mountain?!

One thing I did say “yes” to this week, where normally I would spent forever debating with myself and decided against it, was to buy a pair of 8-eye black Docs to replace the ones I got in college that I couldn’t wear anymore after my feet grew a size during pregnancy (thanks, kiddo!). I think 17 years is long enough to wait to get a pair of shoes I love.
