Ever have one of those days that’s just…productive? I can’t remember the last time I ended the week feeling so good. No kidding, I literally left the office on Friday beaming and generally feeling in my prime, ready to tackle the week ahead head-on.
It’s also been a good week diet-wise, money-wise and exercise-wise. Not so much socially or in terms of paying any attention to my other pastimes, but you can’t have it all now can you? As Nicole (whose tagline is ‘a life less bullshit’) put it, “You can’t have all the shit you want at the same time. You can have all the shit you want over the course of a lifetime, but you can’t have it all at once.”
