I’m trying a new knitting pattern and learning new techniques which is keeping my brain constructively occupied, with good results.

I'm working on art. I'm pretty upset. I no longer have the support of a therapist. I couldn't afford it this month. I had too many medical expenses.

I’m looking forward to working on my latest knitting project when it’s slow at work this afternoon. I tried it at home yesterday, but I kept getting distracted and making mistakes. I probably shouldn’t try to watch Columbo while I knit even though I’m so close to finishing the series.

Breaking down our accumulated cardboard boxes for recycling was surprisingly therapeutic this morning.

I ate a lot of candy today. It was actually pretty gross. I wish my boss wouldn’t even bring it in, but, Halloween…

Reading magazines on my phone and eating candy. Maybe once things settle at work I will get a little knitting done. That would be nice.

Much better at accepting my emotions or feelings, not judging them and realizing they are part of being human. And reality.

Having someone say to me "No negativity, no negative vibes, I don't want to hear about it." Ouch. Well he won't hear about it or anything else about me. I want to feel safe to share what I really feel, not what someone wants to hear.

For real?!! Your first paragraph is healthy, the person in your second does not sound like an emotionally sensitive person at all.

Doing okayish as long as I’m pootering along nicely. Then something big pops up in my head and I try not to dwell on it. Big stuff going on in my family right now so kind of hard not to dwell on it.

This was someone I met at a "friendship mixer" which I can tell you more about later, the next time (?) we talk.

Yeah I've already written him off. I'm not going to walk on eggshells around anyone about my "negative" feelings. They are just feelings, not positive or negative. Good or bad. My new mindset.

The saying “When someone tells you who they are, believe them the first time” comes to mind, at least he revealed himself early on.

Yes you have the right approach to feelings I’d say. Good guide to live by!
