I worked on inner work and emails all day. I did cook dinner for the family. Since my energy and motivation are inconsistent, I’m going to start rising each morning and ask - what can I do? - rather than beating myself up with a plan made the night before. I’ll give it a try.

Warm regards to all and best wishes for a peaceful Sunday.

I'm up early today. I cooked a Sloppy Joe casserole. I found a recipe online and tried to do something similar. I think I have enough meals to last a while. I've been cooking all week. Today I will clean litter boxes then rest. I don't feel like doing much. Hope all of you have a good day today!

Sounds good! We all have to find a way that works for the one unique person we are (and perhaps not for anybody else).

By the way I'm OK. (Had drinked sour milk, without noticing it).

Be well!

My Saturday became special, I was so sleepy that I wasn't able to do much. My day shifted between doing a very small "thing" and going to bed for some time. When I took the second doze that day (the evening doze) I had to run to bed ...

Sunday morning I woke up still affected by the double doze of sleeping pills from the day before. I only had the energy to relax, see TV and go to Church. I am satisfied with that.

For Monday I have these plans:

Write down what I want to talk to my GP about and then work in the home where it is needed, ten minutes on and ten minutes off.

I wish everybody a good Monday!

I started on a household project that I’ve needed to complete for some time and made good progress. I also watched a good movie, completed inner work and made a lemony chicken casserole for dinner. All in all, it’s been a good day and it feels good to be started on that project.

Tomorrow I think I can:

1. Run errands (I must)
2. Continue the project
3. Small group meeting via Zoom
4. Self help reading

Warm regards to all for a peaceful Monday.

I feel good today. But I don't have a lot of energy. I unloaded the dishwasher. Now I need to reload it. I've been playing my online game. I'll play more soon. I plan to read in bed today and hope to do a little painting. Mainly I will relax. Wishing everyone well today!

I completed everything but run errands. I had 14 to run so I’ll just get up and plan to spend the day running errands and maybe grab a Starbucks or lunch in between runs. I will reward myself by going to a $5 movie Tuesday night.

I hope everyone is well and send warm wishes for a peaceful Tuesday.

I am tired, but OK. I have had an appointment with my GP today and we work on getting me less tired.

I will continue my days in the same manner as before, 10 minutes on and off with regard to the house work. On the out of home front I will continue with the group gymnastics. I will train to be good enough to join my friends in their hiking in the mountains soon. I will try to plan my meals in good ways as well. I look very much forward to spring, to be able to walk in the woods, listen to the bids singing, drink a cup of coffee outside, meet friends and more ... This winter has been very hard!

I think the time has come for me to try to make a good life for myself on my own with all my diseases. I will take a break from the forum (need time for myself, so that's it ).

Lent starts at Wednesday. Will try to deepen my relationship with God in that period.

I wish you all well and hope the successes will come your ways! (You never know when I pups in again. I have experienced that there usually comes a time when I need to go back to this thread

). Be well!

Deilla · Feb 25, 2020 at 05:25 PM

I did a lot of reading today. I also washed dishes and straightened up in my kitchen. I am tired. Will probably go to bed soon. Hope everyone has had a good day.

Sunflower123 · Feb 25, 2020 at 06:22 PM

Not feeling on top of the world so I’ll probably go to bed early. I did nothing today but listen to The Tapping Summit and my anxiety relief program. I did help mom with things she needed to get done. I’ll get a good night’s sleep and see what I can do tomorrow.

Warm regards to all for a peaceful Wednesday.

Deilla · Feb 26, 2020 at 02:37 AM

I've been hooked on my book. I finished it up this morning. It was really good. I also downloaded some new games to play. Today I will do a few chores but mostly I will relax. Hope all of you are well. Best wishes for a good Wednesday!

Sunflower123 · Feb 26, 2020 at 04:58 PM

I’ve been productive today. For some reason I woke up at 1:52 A.M. and couldn’t get back to sleep so I worked on my household project. I’ve run a few of my errands and done some inner work. I’m about to take out the trash and go to church for dinner. I have a Zoom meeting later tonight and then I plan on watching a good movie and getting some sleep.

I hope everyone is having a good Wednesday.

Sunflower123 · Feb 27, 2020 at 03:20 PM

It’s a beautiful day today weather wise. I split my errands up into three days and I’ve already run some and am about to run more. I’ve completed my meditation and inner work for the day. Later today I’m going to listen to a webinar by Tony Robbins, work on my project and listen to some more of The Tapping Summit. I’m going to relax with some painting.

I hope everyone is well and is having a good day.

Deilla · Feb 27, 2020 at 04:15 PM

I had to deal with my taxes today. I think I have everything in order now. I played my game for a while. It's been stressful today. I had to wait on a letter today. Something I had to sign for. I'm going to relax now. I've done enough for one day. Too many road blocks and hurdles to deal with. I think I could benefit from some meditation. Hope everyone is well today.

Deilla · Feb 28, 2020 at 06:22 AM

This morning I've been getting dressed for an appointment. I have a medical test today. I also washed clothes and washed dishes. Will try to rest now. I'm afraid to go back to sleep. Not sure if I will wake up in time for my appointment. Hope everyone is well today. Best wishes for a joyful Friday.

Thank you! It did go well. I found out I have carpal tunnel. Next week I see the doctor about what to do. I'm hoping I can get an injection. If that doesn't work, I'll do surgery.

I had good news while I was at the doctor's office. I had to stand in line for several minutes. At first I was concerned that my back might start hurting. But it never did. And I was at the counter for a while. I even walked straight to my car when I was done. Still no pain. I'm so excited that I'm going to cook a difficult dish today. One that requires me to stand up more than usual.

Hope everyone is well today!

Sunflower123 · Feb 28, 2020 at 03:56 PM

I’ve spent most of the day relaxing. I’m not going to go to that meet up tonight. My social anxiety is just too bad. I’ve got 4 opportunities to socialize next week so I’ll try again. For the rest of the night I’m going to relax with a good book in between working on my household project.

I hope everyone is doing okay. Happy Friday! Warm regards for a peaceful weekend.

Deilla · Feb 29, 2020 at 05:08 PM

I'm not feeling all that well today. I haven't done much. I did clean a few litter boxes. I need to clean 2 more. I tried to read today. I wanted to play a new game on my PC, but it wouldn't install. For some reason today is difficult. I wanted to cook but I don't have the energy. Will try to meditate for a little. Hope everyone is doing well today.
