I liked everyone's posts for this session. I really know my self-care is in the dumpster, and I liked that this session focuses on that. So here are my goals:
Sense of Accomplishment:
1. Taking care of financial things that were bothering me. I did that yesterday and feel a huge sense of relief. I'm not scared to answer my phone anymore.
2. Listening to all 147 messages on my answering service. Now I don't have to worry about that too.
Pleasant activities:
1. Going camping (I'm going this Saturday). My boyfriend has been bugging me for months to go camping which, under normal circumstances I love. But I've been isolating so bad that I did not want to go. I couldn't see the point. The house needed cleaning, blah blah blah. So I dove in and made the committment. I've changed my mind-- I need to invest some time in myself, and in our relationship.
2. I'm taking my sewing and my book (neither of which I've been able to concentrate on) and hope to be able to focus at least a little bit.
Exercising, eating well, and sleeping well are huge priorities for me as well. I'm just working on the sleeping part, and will tackle the other two as soon as I feel ready. The sleeping is getting better. Today was the first day I didn't go back to sleep after dropping my son off at kindergarten. That was major! I've been averaging 10-16 hours of sleep everyday. It felt good to actually not feel compelled to crawl back in. Good stuff :)
So Goofy, I'm hoping to be joining you and Diva soon in the excercise department.
