Sunday:

losses:2

Monday:

losses:0
-didn't lose it when someone moved my food.
-Tx breakthrough--oof.
-came home to chocolate chips in the freezer!!

Tuesday:
WINS:1
losses:0

Wednesday:
WINS:2
losses:0

Friday:
WINS:2
-a friend has great career news!!--"Things are starting to feel like they are falling into place!"
-first sculpt class was a success!--definitely needed an athletic WIN
losses:0

Saturday:
WINS:1
-LLR unicorn in my size!
losses:1

Season record:7-0-1

Upon the conclusion of this week, some thoughts and clarifications:
WINS or losses are not necessarily good things or bad things that occur. The perception of WIN or loss is more based on expectation. For example: you go to a coffee shop, order the usual, get your usual, sit down, sip your usual, it tastes good, you feel happy and caffeinated, get your work done, and go home. Even though the coffee was good and you were productive, not a WIN (and not really a loss either). The expectation was exactly how it played out. And I'd even go further to say even if your coffee was ho-hum, you got distracted creeping on you-know-who's Instagram, and got nothing done, still probably not a loss. That's just life. But, you spill said drink that you spent your last $5 on on your favorite white pants which you had to wear in March cuz you haven't done laundry in three weeks and had to high-tail it to the ER to get your burns checked out...probably a loss. Somebody behind you not only pays for that coffee, but it is the best vanilla, caramel, milk chocolate soy latte with double espresso you've ever laid your tongue on...WIN.

I'm also surprised to learn this week that I can have a record day WIN-wise and still feel unfulfilled or down or disappointed or whatever else. And, (and this is good news), losses can outweigh the wins, but your day be fabulous. (How can this be??!!--more data must be recorded).
