I read week 4's chapter and thought - 'I can't wait'. Bring it on - tantrums, decluttering, spiritual chiropractice, oh yes, it's all happening in week 4.
Officially, we are recovering a sense of integrity. I definitely feel things are happening if I can't quite articulate what..... I'm having a few dramatic swings - from wanting to do nothing but rest and lie in my newly feathered bed and retreat to reorganising my whole office and throw out moutains of stuff. I even cleaned the inside of my car today. Which is a very rare occurence.
I've also found myself being less tolerant of stuff - be it people or things. The massive old fashioned tv I've had since I was in my twenties that has sat in my dining room for years has just been taken to the dump.
There is some weird satisfaction about going to that dump. Every time I come away with an empty car, I feel my shoulders lift. My son and I sang Abba all the way home.
I'm looking forward to the exercises this week - apart from the reading deprivation? At this point, I'm not even entirely sure I can do it. My excuse is that I'm trying to write my Big Peace book and am reading all the latest brain research. Do I really think I can really take a week off? I've only got another 6 weeks before my deadline.....
And I can't ever seem to fall asleep without reading....will I lie awake and howl at the moon?
But the other exercises I'm really looking forward to - I'm looking forward to being 80 and being all wise and bossy. I'm loving the idea of converting a room and the small vacation??? I'm booking the babysitters already.
