daily check in for women #2

I feel overwhelmed today. I have too much to do today and I am in physical pain. I just want to lay around in bed all day and meditate. I'll take care of my morning routine then go back to bed.

I have heard a new lyric today which totally blew my mind

ice packs are cool, so get them while they are hot

uh....... okay!

I'm doing better today. I've been relaxing mainly. I did get a few things done.

I'm trying to lift myself up with some coffee & at least I'm enjoying the coffee. Maybe there's something in the air that just needs to run its course. Also I think some things are the way they are & that's all there is to it, like we're at an intersection & we have to wait for the light to turn green.

The men in and out of my life are really getting on my nerves . Yesterday my ex husband called me a dumb *** , stupid and told me to **** off. My fiancé continues to ignore my calls and texts as usual . I really wish I hadn’t checked my blocked messages last month. I know why I did it. I’m thinking that going back to him is a good idea even though it didn’t work the first time I tried to rekindle the relationship.

I'm alright. I have an appointment with my psychiatrist tonight. I'm hoping she keeps my meds the same.

I made it to my dental appointment. Got the problem I was having taken care of and they cleaned my teeth. I am good for a while.

My psychiatrist did keep all my meds the same. She told me to do something that brings me joy in the morning. I haven't decided what that is yet.

I've had a busy morning today. I accomplished 3 major tasks. I have two more to go. And then I will unwind with a game and a nice drink.

That's great, @Deilla!! I'm so glad for you, & encouraged by this!! I feel better today, too! Maybe something in the air?, like Springtime getting closer?

@Breaking Dawn, yeah. It's been a nice day. I'm glad you're doing better too. It does feel like spring is in the air. And my mom helped me out today with something that was urgent. She was in the neighborhood and it all worked out. I also talked to her about the other day. She is caring for my sister, who needs surgery. And she is doing so many other things for people. So I understand why she couldn't come out.

I had a decent therapy session today, minus the anxiety I felt in session. My therapist told me to start each day by setting an intention for the day, like a feeling I want to focus on. It seems like an interesting idea. I am going to give it a try.

I'm very glad it was a sunny day today. That helps a lot. Sometimes something as simple as that can make the difference, for me at least.

Wow! It's really March already. I think March is my favorite month. It's sunny today, and that helps lift my mood. I've been busy with all kinds of projects. I guess I feel good, but I have some dread about the chores I have to do today. And I'm slowly working on my ADL's. I need a coffee boost.

I'm hanging in. I panicked because I almost ran out of pads but I was able to get some.

I've been trying to work on mindfulness. I'm hoping it helps me. I'm worrying about Monday and I really need to focus on the present moment and enjoy my weekend.

I hope that you have a nice weekend...

happy international womens day for tomorrow.

I created it's own thread if you'd like to discuss it

Thank you! In one of my mindfulness books, I read about an art therapy practice. I feel much better after working on that. My weekend is going well. I hope you are enjoying your weekend too.

Today was okay. I'm in a positivity group on Facebook and it was kind of negative there today so that was a bit of a disappointment. Otherwise not much to report.

I have an appointment today. I feel anxious about it. But I'm prepared. It's a vet appointment for my cat. I worry about getting him in the carrier. I worry about trying to catch him. Vet appointments are really hard. I will do my best.

I’m at a crossroad. I’ll have to live alone and I’m scared.

Can't sleep! PTSD has been acting up as well. Could be better.

I feel good today. I'm all caught up. I started my chores early this morning. I just have to finish my self-care. Then I will relax all day.

showered today, and that's made my back (especially my left side) feel really, really painfull. ow!.

the plus side today is that I'm having mcdonalds for dinner. fridayy hasi t's good bits..
