Not a Rule Follower Tonight

Tonight, for some reason, everything has been better standing up.  I came into my kitchen for a late snack and decided to eat my cheese and crackers at the counter. something i never do because, well, i am a rule follower. and the rule is you eat at the table.  and i've also amended the rule to mean the couch too. but rules are rules.

well, tonight i didn't want to be a rule follower.

counter it is.

so as i was eating my snack at the counter i tried to figure out what else i could do at the counter.  hmmm...a glass of wine sounds good.

okay, cheese, crackers and wine at the counter.

except...where is that magazine i was reading earlier? add that to the mix. 

so, as i'm standing at the counter enjoying my glass of wine, munching on my cheese and crackers and reading my magazine i come across this article:

"Blog for your health"

According to this article blogging helps your body in a number of ways.

1)Sounder Slumber...blogging about your feelings can bring on relaxation, which helps usher in sleep.

2) Improved Immunity...expressive writing may encourage growth of white blood cells, which fight off infection.

3) A Hardy Heart...writing about emotional topics may lower blood pressure and heart rate, keeping your ticker i better shape.

Score!

So now i am standing at my counter with my magazine,my cheese and wine, and blogging my little heart out.  

Breaking my own rules and benefitting my body at the same time. 

What a good night.
