What did you do right today? Part 2

Took a bath and going out to get some air...on this crazy weather.

instead of spending my money on random crap like junk food and sleeping pills, i bought my little sister a Nintendo DS cause she was lonely. i want to hang with her more but i don't have the mental strength or energy to do it. it's kinda hard to hang with her because of her mental and physical disabilities but i feel like i did something right

I spent time with my family.....went to work......going to bed soon.....

Managed to start working on my marking - will get at least assignment 1 finished.

I read, signed and mailed the paperwork to the law firm that will represent me to the SSA.

Was honest in rehab about having relapsed Fri. night even though it might mean they kick me out.

-Found out I got a 102 on my music midterm that I took before spring break

-Managed to not freak out too much about seeing one of my friends for the first time since coming out to her (damn I love my friends...)

It just seems like everything is finally okay

Didn't freak out or lose it on my addictions Dr. in my appointment today.

Did ok in my job interview.

Firstly went to T yesterday and this follows on from that visit. It's 20:50 were I am now and this is the second time I’ve come online today which is good and I need to cut down on this.

My main highlight is this

I woke up early and decided to give set goal of going to beach and reading a book a go so I could put my mind at rest if I could do this or not. Thinking/assuming it was going to go bad or I was not capable of this/ leaving the house.

Started the day by showering and washing my hair - ashamed but sometimes I neglect my physical care.

Then I ate a better breakfast for once well better considering some things I would eat and call a breakfast as I was eating at that time of day. Today’s was good for me.

After this I made sure I had the book in my bag then stepped outside and followed my planed route to the beach. It has been really sunny here more than usual which helped a lot I think.

So sat down on quite part of beach, all pebbles where I live. Then I read for 30 min’s as planned then sat for bit more. After getting a bit cold from sitting on pebbles I walked back home but changed my route to a longer one as I was enjoying the beach too much with just the right breeze and not too many people.

Now of course I am at home and worn out from just that but it helped me a lot and was a step in right direction I needed to do personally. For once I am a bit happier which I have not been in a while.

Spoke up about some things that had really been bothering me.
Did something concrete about lessening another issue (even though I really shouldn't have needed to do it). Made me feel more secure about it though.

3 loads of laundry.

Sounds like you had a good day, well done for achieving your set goal

I actually put ME first today.....

yesterday evening I was invited to a group meal in the nearby town, usually i say no because it is a big hassle for me to get ready to go let alone get there as my electric scooter is not suitable to take into restraunts, but yesterday was really sunny, so i decided to go, and to try and get there under my own steam rather than relying on a cab which makes it an expensive night out. I started getting ready three hours before I was due at the restraunt. ashamed to say but I only wet wiped myself and changed my clothing before setting off. I took my time and managed to wheel myself almost to the bus stop at the end of my road before some very nice young lad asked if i needed help. my arms were burning so i accepted his help. long story short I managed to get to the restraunt without help of a carer or cab! first time in five years I have gone out in the evening 'on my own' to meet friends. it was a great sense of achievement.
today I am still in bed at lunchtime!

Got out of bed and I am going outside to see a friend and have lunch.

Cleaned the moss off of my car window edges for my sister's upcoming visit. The car still looks... um, well, errrr, it's got... "character" but at least it's not sprouting anything now...

(What IS it about the car that makes my Orderliness and Cleanliness Devotion take a holiday?! (D'ya get it? The little joke there? Heheh.) No, really though... What is UP with that?! Why does the car get a blind eye, when much much smaller -- ok, much much much much much smaller -- things torment me with their "not right-ness"? The epic single-mindedness a 1/32nd of an inch can bring...let alone microscopics...
Really, you should see this car. People comment. Knowing nods are exchanged with others whose fenders are semi-detached, like their own kind of real estate. And let's not talk about the grill. I'm just waiting to find the last piece having disappeared into the night mists. It keeps re-adjusting itself to a 45 degree angle from everything else. The hood. "Huh. It wasn't gapped that much before. Was it? Why is it even doing that?". I don't know where half of the waffles came from. Also, the car is possessed.)

What was the question?
Uh... that's what I did right today. Also, worked.

I went to church. Took my granddaughter shopping for shoes. Took a nice nap with my granddaughter on my lap (sleeping). I decided to branch out on PC and try to make some new friends (that is a HUGE step for me).

Thank you , I also read your post so well done to you to for inviting your friends and taking yourself along. Glad you say you felt sense of achievement for yourself you should feel that way. Strange you should say you were still in bed at lunch time I only say this becuase I went to the beach again on Sunday and then slept for 14 hours straight after that. So don't feel bad for been tiered after.

Today I applied for a job I would be capable of and love to have so fingers crossed

Well done!!

This morning, I went to the police station to apply for a new passport - my old one expires in three weeks' time and I'm going abroad for Easter so it's sort of urgent, and I've been putting it off and putting it off. Not because it's unpleasant or difficult, just because, you know. Procrastination. But today I did it and I'll be picking up my new passport on the 30th.

Got myself to an appointment. Washed a back load of dishes. Got my hope back in gear. Bought myself some butter pecan ice cream. Filled up the bird bath with fresh water. Filled the bird feeders with seed. I'm kind of happy.

I was on time for work today!

I cooked eggs for breakfast.

Grocery shopped and did a pretty big bake/cook after a long day at work. (Tired now! )

Made my bed, got dressed, did the dishes, made breakfast, took my medication, cleaned up the walk outside my apartment, gave treats to my neighbors dogs, filled the bird bath with fresh water, brought in the trash barrel and my neighbor's, too.
