be kind to self day

i've declared it be kind to self day (feel free to join in). i didn't even think about running this morning, as i was exhausted and it would have been punishment. i woke up with bad cramps at 5, popped some advil, and went back to bed. yuck.

i made myself a simple bowl of oatbran plus some milky coffee:

• 1/3 c oatbran (trying 1/3 rather than 1/2 because sometimes 1/2 feels like a ton)
• 1/3 c vanilla soymilk, 1/3 c water
• 1/2 large banana
• 1 T flaxmeal
• toppings: raisins, microwave-toasted almond pieces, brown sugar, T almond butter
  

simple, yet satisfying. i am going to work the morning from home and then go into work later... i have a couple meetings i have to go to this afternoon.
