Hello lovelies in the 50+ community, its Monday again and I hope this will be a good week for everyone 
Give Yourself Recognition. Often, were quick to acknowledge the achievements of others, but slow to acknowledge our own. That has to stop. Become aware of your own achievements and give yourself recognition.
When you do something youre proud of, stop for a minute and dwell on it. Praise yourself and relish the achievement. Complement yourself. Pat yourself on the back and say the following: Kudos to me!
Here are some Kudos from me to everyone out there for coming to this site to help yourself 
What are things you did in the last weeks youre giving yourself Kudos for?

@amiablePeace77 I fought health and human services commission and got all services reinstated. Have cooked everyday. Only buying groceries every 3 weeks. House is clean. Laundry done. Eye doctor and dentist scheduled for sons. My appointments at Mayo Clinic scheduled. It's good to make a list. We accomplish a lot more than we realize when we start writing it down. This is only part. I am pleased.
@mutter3...wow
. Kudos to you.
@faithlove1111 thank you❤
@mutter3
Great job! I love to-do-lists too, it's so rewarding to check them off
I started offering life coaching sessions! 😃
consoling a friend whose fiancé passed
I got a life coaching session to create flow in my paper decluttering goal. it's moving!
I made sauerkraut. Especially excited about the pineapple ginger kraut. Probiotics! 😊
I started writing my to do lists on paper instead of my phone and it works much better!
and of course my gratitudes
and I've been introducing people to the emotional wheel.... they're amazed! 😊
thanks for asking 😊
@Sedtzl1 pineapple kraut sounds good,no ginger😀
@Sedtzl1
Wow Sedtzl1, you truly deserve lots of kudos particularly for helping your friend in such a hard time!
just did stress reading for my daily growth plan and the link doesn't have any available material Complete the Family Systems Stressor-Strength Inventory found on the following website on pages 2-6.

@amiablePeace77, My head hurts. I would love to be able to focus on these questions, but I have had aa very rough past couple days. I'm in tears.
@purpleTree4652
I'm so sorry. Take care of yourself first then just do one thing that usually makes you feel better. When you do something that makes you feel good write it down so maybe later you can use it when yours in tears and feel down.
@purpleTree4652
Hugs purpleTree, I am sorry you're feeling so bad. It's hard to focus when feeling overwhelmed, please self care
What are things you did in the last weeks youre giving yourself Kudos for? Starting with two weeks ago, I took my fiance to a surgery center in San Francisco to get her knee operated on, since then I have been taking care of her and her cat and her house. I have been staying with her ever since the surgery.
@Offmytrack
Offmytrack, you're a very caring person, kudos! Wish you gf a good recovery and greeting to the cat
@amiablePeace77 The cat and I say hello!
I eventually started working on my thesis, and looked after the entire family during the lockdown period. I also managed to hand in a research project and organize my study material for my exam on human rights
@Seeker1898
I guess they are very happy to have you, someone who cares in such tough times. Big for human rights studies, wish you all the best. The world needs more people on that field in my opinion.
@amiablePeace77 thank you
Hello all
I made an appointment for an eye exam today - been waiting for services to open back up, looking forward to new glasses! Hair salons have opened in my area too, going to get my hair trimmed asap.
These are small accomplishments but every little thing helps!
@kelcale
Kudos kelcale! It's important to get the eyes checked regularly to avoid possible illnesses and hey who is not waiting for a hair cut by now? 😁
@amiablePeace77
I am getting dressed every day. Make my bed. Clean my house and do dishes. I painted my fingernails last week. I Go for a walk when weather permits. I just keep trying, not easy!!
@impartialDrum1848
Those are accomplishments you deserve kudos for! Some people think it's just normal to get out of bed, do what you have to do not knowing how hard it can be, so Kudos
I went to the hospital because I was having suicidal thoughts and was transferred to a behavioral health hospital where I spent over a week. It was an interesting experience, anyway, I got out on Thursday.
@WharfRat
So sorry to hear that you felt so lost in life, hugs. I hope staying in that hospital helped to get another perspective of life. Please never forget we are here for you if you want to talk
(Lovely picture...)
What are things you did in the last weeks you
@ButterfleeKid
Hmm, 🤔, is it a ship to sail safely through stormy weather?
@amiablePeace77
Yes, a very sturdy ship that no hurricane, no rogue wave or impact can sink, a ship that can ressurect herself, having clones over the world in secret places...
The ship without a name...
The "Heart Cloud"...
@BllackCatLuna
That's an amazing ship to aboard
@amiablePeace77
Thank you😶, the accomodations are surprisingly nice on board, neat cosy and clean, lucurious in her utility and strength...😉😊🤗, thank you for indulging someone ho needs attention...😶
@ButterfleeKid
I finally got online and applied for assistance and work, my anxiety has gone through the roof with covid and I lost my job last month so it has only gotten worse, I feel like I'm becoming a recluse! But it felt good to look forward to something.
