Accomplishing something feels good! Dinner tonight was Baked tilapia with salsa, stir fry veggies with sauteed summer squash and corn tamales. (The tamales were store bought, heat and eat comfort food. A little splurge every now and then is nice. :) ) What makes me really happy about dinner is that the fish came out nice and flaky. I am not an expert at cooking fish. I definitely used to avoid it because it used to be a very frustrating experience that often as inedible or unpalatable. It seems like only recently I am starting to become more proficient at it. (I guess it helps that I haven't really branched out a lot with fish. Usually if I have it on hand it's either salmon or tilapia, so I am learning the nuances of those fish better.)
I also managed to do a couple other chores in the intervening time since I wrote my last journal entry; all that definitely helps with the frustrations that come up and give me the strong desire to break something. I think I am going to look into finding a tae kwon do class. It'd be better to have proper forms to channel that kind of energy and it would be nice to work towards an actual belt. I've always loved martial arts, just never quite had the opportunity or resources before to pursue them. Perhaps now's the time.
