Can you name 5 good things that happened to you recently?

1) I made 60 soap sales!
2) I have been losing weight.
3) I've been learning to forgive myself.
4) I was hoping to buy lilies. I thought I would need to go to a florist, but I found them at my local supermarket. Yay! They weren't even that expensive.
5) My biotin pills have been working. My hair seems to be shinier.

1. I have been really active outdoors this summer, camping, hiking, paddling, etc (yay! this is a major feat for me)
2. I have lost a little weight (and been coming to grips with fact I will now always be overweight - but even a little makes me thrilled)
3. My dog is gaining confidence (we can get closer to other dogs and people are rarely a problem now)
4. I am learning to jump less to catastrophizing
5. My machine for sleep apnea is getting easier and less humiliating to use

I have porridge and the way I like it, with butter, loads of cinnamon and stevia sweetener.

A new friend will show up quite soon. I hope it will be a cool experience. I seem to make new friends easily of late.

I found out about some substances that might be useful for me.

My old cat is still with me, I love him so so much. I will try to make his last stretch in life as pleasant as possible. He is 18+.

The student that I was mentoring passed her class and now has a full high-school education.

-I've gotten very good at accomplishing goals that I set for myself, completing them by the deadline, and doing a good job.

-I'm finding it much easier these days to get up and get back into the swing of things, after something/someone has upset me. It doesn't hold me down for endless amounts of time the way it used to do.

-I'm feeling more sociable, and that's a really good thing.

-I know now that it's o.k. to take time for myself to heal and get through a depressive episode. It used to heap so much guilt onto my shoulders---it doesn't, anymore.

-Self-discipline (in just about every area) is coming easier and easier to me.
