Small Change

Lately, life has been mostly about small change. Nothing quite new years-resolutiony, just little things.

Getting out of bed earlier to stretch a little longer, mostly focusing on reversing my office-troll-hunch (over the computer desk) and lengthening my hamstrings (was (wo)man meant to touch his (her) toes? Because I wasn't quite made that way.).

Rolled some small change from a couple of jars we've been keeping. It added up to $23 - better than a kick in the pants.

Re-reading a favourite, just short of a year after I first did. I felt it was time again, and it's helping me cope with anger, and the winter at large.

Lastly, paying a little more attention to food labels, with a general goal of trying to eat more food that actually is food (mostly plants), which I just noticed that I also mentioned a year ago.

I'm not saying I won't eat anything with msg/transfats/etc, I'm just saying... well, to take the example of a granola bar versus a chocolate bar - if the granola bar has a similar nutritional value, I'd rather just eat the chocolate bar, y'know? It's not as succinct as these inspired words of wisdom, but it'll have to do.
