Well, Just another day surrounded by a wide variety of negative people, news and thoughts. I was hoping to be able to make an appointment at the health department but, well, you have to apply for a card to even make an appointment. So now it's looking more like over a month before I can see a doctor =/. My stomach did a little better today though. Don't feel very well, but it hasn't gotten to the point of needing to throw up either, which I guess is okay. I attempted to do my homework. My thoughts were racing so fast thought I couldn't concentrate. As for motivation to push threw that road block, was, well, lacking. I wanted to do nothing more than just sleep all day. I didn't want to get out of bed at all, making the homework process even more difficult. I suppose, at the least I did the bare basics and whatever I didn't do today I can always do tomorrow. Well after that lovely ordeal I had a chance to hit the court and attempt to shoot some hoops. You can tell it's been awhile since I have been on a court. I am hoping to make that as my exercise routine for the day. I have been told that exercise is important for me, especially with the racing thoughts and rapid cycling. I really hope I keep up with it. That's my hardest problem is sticking to a routine. Then once I came home I was greeted by nothing but a bunch of negativity from the people I live with that I just don't need right now. I have enough negative thoughts like being unattractive, fat, useless, going nowhere fast all day. I def. don't wanna come home to it, so here I am trying to stay positive.

How is everyone else doing?

Routine is really important for me too. Especially a healthy sleep routine. I've dropped back on the exercise last week, I usually get on the exercise bike every day but I had some pain issues that made that hard to do. I am better now though so I really should get on it today. The negative thoughts are easier to push away. Im planning on doing more of my therapy courses today and trying the mindfullness and relaxation as I had trouble with it last night before bed.

yeah I really need to get on a sleep schedule too, but since my main problem is I suddenly become hyper at night, I hope by wearing myself out all day it may help. Well I am glad to hear you're pain issues are better today, and best of luck in your therapy courses =]

I get hyper at night too, despite yawning all afternoon. It's so weird!

Positive thoughts, 1. you felt a little better 2. you were able to get some homework done 3. you shot some hoops today (cool) 4. you are trying to be positive and you are asking about other folks' day. Those are all good things. I'm guessing you applied for the card? Good also.

My day was spent partly in the backseat of a car, not that fun but...earlier it was. I got to see my son jump(parachute) from an airplane and then watch his promotion ceremony, he is now an army specialist. So that was a proud moment for this momma. It's always hard having to say goodbye to him though.

Here's (((bighugs))) to you
Thanks for this!
