I saw a little girl today who reminded me of a long lost habit. She had her thumb near her mouth and would occasionally slip it into the corner and then quickly out again if she thought someone was looking.
It reminded me of my own "worst" habit. Though in my case, it was fear of discovery that kept me from EVER doing it in public. Grade school, middle school, & high school sleepover invitations were a nightmare for fear I'd fall asleep and others would discover my secret! Thankfully my thumb's spell has long since been broken. But seeing that little girl made me remember it all.
Nowadays, my habits are a bit more mundane: coffee that is ready for me when I wake, toes that lightly wiggle when I sit (or, according to my husband, lie down or stand up), and, of course, there is my daily dose of knitting.
Sunday morning coffee while listening to Sherrill's podcast is a newly forming habit.
And then of course there is my favorite Habit.
Thankfully, today's habits are much better for me both physically and mentally.
Nothing wrong with a healthy fiber habit and caffeine to go with it!
