I haven't posted to this thread in a while so I thought I would post to it today. I have been reading threads and posts this morning and that got me to thinking about my resent accomplishments. I think that for me it is easy to not see my accomplishments and progress and to look at the negative side of things. I was beating up on myself for not making more progress and this was not fair to me and just was not true. It has to due with low self esteem I think. Anyway I took a step back and took a good look at myself this morning after reading posts and decided to take my own advice and give myself some credit for the things I have accomplished recently. I have started exercising most everyday. I got showered dressed and went shopping for a Christmas tree. I went to the dentist. I went grocery shopping several times in the last week and I also went walking at the crowded mall yesterday... So really I have accomplished a lot in the last two weeks and should be very proud of myself. I think that I just need to stand back and take a good look at myself at the end of the week and give myself credit for all my accomplishment both big and small.....and reward myself in some way...Like writing this post...
Good Morning to you too Sunny: I want to thank you for the advice you gave me when I was first having a hard time with this class it really payed off. I asserted myself and didn't run for the situation and in turn I have learned to do something I really love and I am also a much stronger person now. I am feeling really good about myself now and could take any class I wanted to at this point. Thank you for encouraging me to move forward with my dreams and to never give up on myself.
I am really looking forward to seeing your baby quilt! Well I got to go for now I have a lot of homework to get done before Tuesday night. I am quilting my quilt top now and this takes a lot of time as you know. I signed up for a additional class just in case I can't get it finished on there time line. This takes the pressure off a little...After that I will be able to make a quilt from start to finish on my own and will be able to take my time with it and really be able to relax and enjoy the process...
Good Morning Red: I am happy for you that you can stay in that class and get on with it without letting the past instructor's behaviour bother you. That's a real step ahead. You're doing what I usually do. The past behaviour is in the past, I still interact with the person, saying hello and goodybe, polite things, but I don't have the need to "hang" out with that person. I remember saying before that everyone is different. Let's say someone likes the colour "purple". Not necessarily a bad thing, just that I don't care for purple. I don't gravitate towards that colour, I like the white, offwhite and yellow colours. So if someone else has those colours, I would go towards them. Seems to me it's kind of the same with people, those who have something in common with me are easier to get along with. The other person who likes "purple" is still okay, maybe a nice person for someone else, just not for me, so I'm not going to bang my head against the wall trying to make her like me, or me like her. We're just different, that's all, neither good nor bad. Does this make sense?
Your friend Sunny
p.s. I will try and post the baby quilt when it is finished. I can't photograph as well as you, haha
