How´s it going?

I know, but there is a part of me that just did not want to get out of bed or even leave my room.
 
I started my prescription meds today, to see if they will be of help. I will be seeing my therapist Tuesday and the Shrink in about 3 weeks.
 
I just need to try and make it through each day. Today I have to speak at our company meeting, so I need to make it through that. I'm trying to get myself to eat my granola bar so I can take my vitamins, harder then I think. I ate crackers this morning at home to take the meds, I just did not want to take my vitamins with it too.
 
I'm hoping to get enough focus to write my paper that is due Sunday.
 
I'm wondering if I need anti-anxiety meds with my depression meds. I guess I can ask in a couple of weeks.

How´s it going?

I took yesterday off work and my sister was with my mom. My sister lives with me as well. My mom is able to do things, at times it is just like caring for a child. I use my phone mainly be on the web, as I hate using my laptop. I'm hoping to feel different eventually. I'm wiring on this program. I'm trying to make changes in my life. I know I've lost focus and I'm hoping things improve to at least finish my class.

Davit I hope you are ok and feeling better. How is the cut? Staying up late never ends well.

It's getting cold here, but no snow yet. I hope no snow. I think I am at the point in my life I hate the cold, I like spring and fall. Though retiring on a nice island sounds good, though I am way too young to think about retiring.

I made it through my presentation at work, I shook the entire time, but I was behind a podium. I did leave half way through the meeting and hung outside when I started feeling sick. But I did start taking the prescription meds Friday, only time will tell if they are working.
 
Just trying to make it through each day. I have the final for my class, its due Sunday. I just don't feel like writing 3 essays. But I have to remember to get this done and I am done. My group paper is basically done, which is what the last two weeks is on. Then I can spend 2 months deciding if I want to take the next class and finish this degree or give up.

People with walls


Walls make people feel better.

In a the health care setting it really depends on the person.  Our front desk people at the centers are called Service Reps and we have good ones and bad ones. Sadly the longer they are with the company, they put up walls to deal with some of our patients. 
 
It is bad that the receptionist is acting like that with you and different with others.

How´s it going?

I'm not sure what I am doing, I have decided to just wait and see. I have 2 months before the next class starts and as long as I pass this class, you are automatically enrolled. I only decided to work on the MBA, because it was only an additional 18 credits after completing my 1st Masters. I've decided to just let it autoenroll me and wait until the class starts to decide if I want to continue, I know I am not at the place right now to make that decision.
 
I am glad you leg is healing! What changes are you making to your diet? I have been trying to do more organic/natural eating. Was doing well until this past week. But it is not an overnight change.
 
hugs
 
Yeah the holidays are coming and I just don't care. Holidays are nothing but about spending money. I've always been a huge black friday shopper, I have great memories with my dad doing it. But I will not be going out this year. I am mad it keeps starting earlier and earlier and I feel bad for the workers. I miss the getting up at 2am to stand in line in the cold and meet random people and share stories. I could be bias, but I am not mean. I celebrate the holidays and get together with people, but I hate it inside.

Davit, I hope your diet is successful and glad you will be monitored as well. Changing ones diet can be extremely hard, even more so when you live with other people (like I do).
 
Hugs, some friends call me an over achiever. I just like learning. Whether I finish this degree or not, I know I am done after this. I have no desire to be in school anymore. I can take classes from coursea for free in different subjects if I feel like learning something and they give you a certificate at the end and all. I hope I'm getting better, but only time will tell.

Small Steps Equal Success

Changing diets is a hard task, especially when trying to find what works and what is also healthy. Too often we get lost in the current fads that sweep Hollywood.
 
But it sounds like you are both doing well following yours, I wish you good luck in sticking to them.

How´s it going?

Currently I'm working on my final. I am hoping to be done by Friday night. It is three essays and I really don't feel the need to write, but I know once I get this done, I am done. We have 2 weeks left, but next week is "research" for the group paper and the last week is finishing the paper and submitting it. My group is almost done our paper. We have a conference call tonight, so it should be ready by next week. Then I don't have to worry about assignments for a while.
 
I wish I was in a better place in my head, because I am sure I would have enjoyed this class a lot better. The professor is super nice and all.
 
Coursea is great, because if you stop caring, you can drop it and not worry about losing money and all.
 
Currently, I just want to go home and go to sleep. I keep telling my head that I can't go to sleep unless I write one of the essays. Hopefully I can achieve that.

How´s it going?

Cara good luck with the job and I hope you get it.
 
I had a decent day. Work was ok, I went to one of our centers to give people the option to ask me anything about benefits and pick up forms. I was bored and unable to focus when I got back to my office. I need to focus on finding a new job and all.
 
I did meet up with a friend and we went shopping and I was able to get some organic stuff and fruits and veggies. I can not wait until I am not living in an apartment and can have a yard to have a garden.
 
I finished my final for my class and submitted it today. The paper I had to write last week during a bad state of mind I was able to actually get an 89 on, I was very surprise. I am basically done now. There are two more weeks, but next week is working on the team paper. I wrote my part and the people in charge of putting all the sections together will be working on that next week and getting it done. Then the week of thanksgiving is when the paper and a powerpoint is due and conference posting reflecting on the paper and the also the entire class. It's nice to have a break though.
 
I think I am going to get ready for bed now.

Small Steps Equal Success

:/ I use to eat this banana nut muffin that was sold at 7-11. I liked it, tasted great. Well over a year ago when I started counting calories I was shocked to learn that this average muffin was over 700 calories! I read that the average sugar and salt we need in our lives come naturally from fruits and veggies. Salt is big thing, because people don't realize how much they are using.
