feels like I'm always a day behind posting here. went to work. took it easy with my knee. asked my guy to get out the crutches, so I can get around more on my own and not worry about falling.

Woke up after sleeping late.

Well, I needed the sleep, so sleeping was the right thing to do.
Thanks for this!

Made Nicoleb2 laugh, went out with a group of friends and helped them become informed about the local and governmental changes which are affecting us all and what to do to appeal their decisions

Got dressed and went to the store. (Sorry, not going to earn accolades here.)

Bought a pretty plant there that I shouldn't have spent the money on, but I kept going back to look at it - white azaleas, the blooms just indescribeably exquisite in color and texture. $16.99 I had to promise that I would make myself do better this week and really try in exchange for taking this. It is a powerful mood lifter with its beauty. Everytime I look at it I am thinking, "You have to pay back for this with what you can do."
Thanks for this!

Washed some dishes, did laundry, tidied just a little, hugged cats, went to see psychopharmacologist and will go to 12-step group tonight. It never feels like enough though... I berate myself constantly for being out of work.

Went to my job interview. Lined up another one for tomorrow. Got my apartment looking nice again. Got myself looking not bad, if I do say so. Went shopping. And went for a bicycle ride. After 2 years of not riding, I was rusty and did take a spill. But I found out I not as fragile as I thought. Got up and rode on. I ate healthy. Well, I just feel good about everything I did.

Woke up at a good time, which made a nap unnecessary. Exercised (swam) in the morning, which made walking to the bus good. Had cheese broc, rice & walnuts for dinner, & strawberries. Need to make some spice tea. & cocoa. Cold tonite!

Got rid of my funk somehow. Sometimes you have to work really hard at it, and sometimes it just goes away by itself. Either way is fine with me.

Got out of bed.
Made the bed.
Got dressed nicely.
Went to job interview.
Was about 72% successful in presenting myself as not being insecure.
Came home and got on the job of all the new job paperwork I have to do and email to job.
Talked myself down from wiggin' out over fear that past employers will speak ill of me.
Overcame extreme social anxiety to call a past co-worker for a reference.
Conjured up ways to diplomatically answer awkward questions on application.
Have refused to go to a bad place mentally. I owe that to Amazing Grace, not me.

Went to check on a friend and got him to agree to go to the hospital, which was needed.
Called my prospective employer to say I was diverted from paperwork, but would get to it.
Called my friend's family about him, so it is not all on me to be concerned.
Stayed with friend until he stabilized.
Came home to attend to my own responsibilities.
