Yesterday I listened to the news and it’s just horrific I couldn’t stop crying. 😭🥵🤮

It’s so tragic and deeply disturbing that there are human beings out there capable of harming babies and innocent people as has been described.

I wore myself out but that's okay. I'm already keen for bed but it's only 5:30pm. I'm feeling a bit fed up, irritated, emotional, down but it's understandable with works events as they are and my father dying. I need to be kind to myself and let that be enough.

Coping well, coping through the challenges head on and improving and growing, especially this year. Looking forward to attaining other goals I've set for myself, Universe willing. Smiling baby.

I was a bit hyper today. I talked to a stranger in the supermarket and baked cookies & brownies. I was going to call my mum but didn't get round to it so I feel a bit guilty. I did a fair bit of mantra meditation which helps with everything.

I got to see some of the younger people in the family who work full time during the week and that gave me a big boost. I’m still stressing about a few things but I feel like the load lightened a bit.

My day slipped away from me. Shopping this morning then on the phone to my mother all afternoon. I'm overwhelmed but everything will be okay.

I’m coping by taking my Sunday off. I don’t get dressed. I take a long hot shower and put on clean pjs. Don’t put my hearing aids in, don’t answer the phone or door. This is my solo day. The only person I answer to is my cat.

I'm coping by being with my plant, Sally. Went for a terribly long high altitude mountain walk today, too far, so my whole body aches. Deep down I hope so much to meet someone, an angel, who will help me, a yearning my entire life since childhood. Nobody yet.

I'm not coping well today. Falling back into bad habits, old coping mechanisms that I know don't work but are still so hard to break. Well, if I'm honest, I fall back into these bad habits most days, but today it's worse than usual

I reinstalled the smiling mind meditation app on my devices. I used it before, but deleted it because I stopped using it. I’m hoping it might help me to ruminate less.

I stayed in all day. I'm tired. My husband has been quite helpful though and sorted out something I've been worrying about so that great, hopefully I'll sleep better tonight. Sometimes I just need to do nothing for a day.
