Hello everyone!!(っ^▿^)۶🍸🌟🍺٩(˘◡˘ )

I have chosen May 1st to be the starting point of two, month long challenges to earn two badges!! The Self-care and self-love badge! Start May 1st, end May 31st!

Self-care - Exercise at least 3 times a week for a month!╰☆╮
Self-love - Do something nice for yourself everyday for a month!╰☆╮

I wanted to invite everyone to join along with me!! It can be hard to do this along, sticking to commitments is no easy task!! However I wanted to gather people so we can do it together and be supportive of one another during the month of May!!

Because I mean for real, exercing? Not easy!! But we can do it!!

Post if you would like to commit to either or both of these self care &love challenges and what you have done through out the month!!

Thank you!!!

All my love,

╰⊰❀SacredBlossom`❀⊱╮

Today...

As self-care, I biked to and from school and swam for an hour.

As self-love, I took a break right before my math test to mentally prepare myself.

I posted May10th before, my international friends confused me +)

May 11th I cleaned, worked, performed one of my volunteer jobs taking care of very intelligent and wonderful parrots for a local store. I also played board games and attended a high-intensity practice to start the countdown for my team's game this weekend.

May 12th I will write, coach and lead a team practice and scrimmage. As a leader I will continue to foster the growth of my teammates and develop strategies to winchampionships! I'm working out my mind and body every day this week to prepare.

It's been so hectic, I haven't had time to post! 5/10 self care: walked to a nice side street where they have some lovely flower gardens & back, but overdid it a little. Self love: I took some desperately needed quiet time to myself to breathe & putter about my woefully unused art desk, getting it ready to bring back to life. A fact I plan to change this month!(the unused part). 5/11 self care: I practiced on stairs Self love: after a heated discussion with significant other, I spent a half hour with a guided relaxation recording & made myself a fabulous dinner (with candles, just for my own happiness).

Ooops almost forgot to post for May 12th

For self-care: I walked so much that my calves were burning.

For self-love: I decided to take care of myself and went to the doctors rather than putting it off.

self-care: 2 lb weights. I'm starting to think I wanna up the weights lol.

Self-love. I wanna focus on "Self-care" not as in exercise or the badge, but just like caring for myself, focusing on really supporting myself. I don't wanna fail as a listener. They say you can't give what you don't have, and I don't really have much inside to give. but I want that to change. I'm going to start taking care of myself.

Just an update. I realized my 2 lb weights were starting to get a little dull. So I found a 5 lb weight to use, wish I had two.

I had no idea this would be so invigerating. I'm actually thinking about trying to get a membership at a gym and or investing in some more weights. If I continue to do this, and gaining muscle, I can move up to 10 and 20 lb weights etc.

I actually feel like I'm gaining some arm muscle O: I had no real expierence in this so I had no idea. I legit only do it for a few minutes each time, but I have these huge results O_O

I'm kinda thinking about how much I wanna try and ride a bike again. I wonder if I can still do it. I wonder if i even still have a bike o.o.. Last time I tried it was really hard. but I think i'min a bit more shape than then.

I'm having more progress with my amnesia, and i'm starting to pick up sensations of how much i used to love riding my bike. I don't want this to be sad for me. I just want to pick up where I left off and not mind that it's been 5 years.. or 10 years.. I'm stronger than that. I can do this!!

I also like this project, as an exercise in loving myself "out loud" every day. Even when I don't feel overly positive, it feels good to say nice things about my day and myself on this forum. Thanks for creating it.

For self love and care Wednesday 5.13 I'm going to get back on top of e-mails, watch good roller derby to inspire me, clean my house, help my loving roommateand partner move in, go to practice and destroy everyone - lovingly, and hopefully eat a really big home cooked meal.

Oop, it's 40 minutes out of May 12th. Well, my post for today-

I really didn't walk as much as usual. Ah, well.

Also, for self-love, I left school for one period. I really couldn't deal with it, so I had a parent take me home during fifth hour. It helped a little.

Today is May 13th, and I'm going to do my daily walking, and for self-love, I'm isolating myself from abusive relationships. If someone wants to be rude or unkind to me, I simply won't speak with them.

It might sound negative, but it'll have a positive effect on my life once I don't have them wearing me down.
