⭐️This past week went well.... Taught my classes, & did well with sleep and hydration. I Skipped the gym setting this past week & got in some Home workouts with my favorite You-Tubers instead.... Continuing with my Holiday playlists in classes, & continuing in the spirit of the season with those I care about.
🎄 Weather has been a little back & forth here, but was really warm and mild today.... so was able to get outdoors a bit for some walking time. And then spent the rest of the day getting my Gifts wrapped. I'm 3/4 of the way there, and almost done thankfully~ I found out my Son is off for Christmas thank goodness, so it will be great to have him stay over on Christmas Eve for our usual family holiday traditions
🎅 Intentions this weekend are to get in an early morning workout at the gym & Get some steps in to boost my day..., Then hopefully get in another local holiday festival since there will be several going on around town..., then Finish wrapping the last of the gifts. Looking forwards to enjoying the Holiday week ahead with my family.
🎁 ENJOY THE WEEKEND AHEAD~
@PoliteOcean I am not feeling okay.. It's I am not doing too well. I am overwhelmed and feeling sad. So depressed.. I am really done with all of this! I want peace and happiness😭. I hate anxiety 😒
@SoftFaith2004
Hey there Faith... Sorry to hear that you weren't feeling well during the time of your check-in. Feeling overwhelmed, sad and depressed & anxiety all at once is definitely a challenge and struggle to deal with. Especially all at once. I know that from experience myself. I do hope that at this time that some (if not all) of those feelings have passed for you and that you are feeling like you are in a better place?! Wanting peace and happiness is certainly understandable (and you would think so simple to have and obtain?).... But we know that its not always that easy. Just remember that we are here to support you in any way that we can. And also please feel free to reach out to us any time, or any one of the amazing listeners here if you simply just need to chat one on one for more individual support as well. We have alot of great support sessions and discussions and events going on here right now for the holidays for those who are having a difficult time. Especially during this time of year. Again we are here for you! I know its difficult, but we thank you for reaching out and sharing your feelings with us this week. Please continue to let us know how you are doing!
@PoliteOcean Hi, Ocean! Well to be honest most of my self care has been me watching television! or listening to music. I had broccoli on Thursday? haha
Hopie
@HopieRemi
I love that idea! And to be honest, that has been MY self-care as of lately too..... These holidays, and work-loads, or just life, can give us those daily stressors. And simply taking time out to do the things that you enjoy (even if simply watching tv, a favorite show... whatever it is that you like) Can certainly help us feel better. And feel good. And awesome job on the broccoli! 👍 Way to get in those veggies! Keep up the great work. And thank you for simply sharing those positive highlights with us!
⭐️Hey everyone, How has your week been?
Good
🎄 I can't believe we are already "Half-way" through the Month of December AND are only "ONE" week away from Christmas!?! .....Time sure is flying by!...

This whole year has flown by. I don't really have anything going on this week. I'm looking forward to just being able to relax with my son. We're watching a movie and eating pizza Christmas eve. Nothing planned for Christmas day but I don't mind.
🎅 In what ways did you take care of yourself this week & incorporate Self-care time?
That's something I need to get better about but I did take today off and laid in bed before going out to dinner with my son.
⭐️What were your "Highlights or Challenges" this past week? How were you able to work through the challenges?!
My health is really bad right now. I really need to get bloodwork and 2 MRIs done but my son just started a new job and we only have 1 car.
@777Bre777
Hey there Bre.. its great to hear that you are doing good this past week.
I totally agree. This year has been a "blink and you missed it" kind of year for sure!... Its great that you are looking forwards to relaxing at home with your son...(I am too, as I'm glad mine got Christmas day off at least)....I love the idea of just watching a movie and grabbing some pizza to enjoy! These are some of me and my sons favorite things to do too.. And he is the PIZZA KING!... And I for one truly believe that just these little moments, are surely the "Best" moments! Enjoy!
Its great that you are able to see that you may need to possibly start incorporating more self-care time. And its awesome that you were able to just simply take the day off and get some needed rest and relaxation before you and your son's dinner date. Great job at taking care of "You"! Keep up the great work on that.
We are so sorry to hear that you are dealing with some health challenges right now. I know how difficult that can be and feel. I hope that you are able to find time (and a way) to get the testing done that you need. Hopefully you can sit down with your son and figure out a schedule of sorts, or maybe he could even get a friend or someone you know to take him to work while you go to your appt? And then you could pick him up afterwards? Just a thought? I know having only one vehicle can certainly present a challenge. Back in my day we used to have public transportation like "buses" that were easy to take and affordably cheap. Now its either Uber or a Taxi.... Not sure if that is something you have available to you? Maybe that could be an option as well? I hope that you are able to get it figured out, and please let us know how everything goes for you!
Remember that we are here for you.... And feel free to reach out any time. We are here to support you. Merry Christmas to you and your son. Enjoy your time together!
@PoliteOcean
We're in a little town with no buses and my son works different days each week. Since we're about 30 minutes from his work nobody lives out this way. Uber/Lyft barely exist and would be too expensive - like there'd be no point in him going to work that day. I'm just going to wait and see how things go. He can take some time off in March and in the meantime I'll try to get the bloodwork done at least.
Thanks for caring to respond. Merry Christmas!
@777Bre777
I totally understand.... Thats what I was saying about having the "old-skool" buses back in the day. It was so affordable and cheap. I know Taxi's (and I'm sure Ubers etc..) are way more expensive these days than those ever were. Its great that you are planning ahead on how you can work it out. March is just around the corner for sure... That time will go by so incredibly fast. And hopefully between then (and by then), things will continue to come together for you in getting everything done that you need! Again, please let us know how things continue to go with that. And how you are doing. We wish you the best of health! And again, Merriest of Christmases to you and yours! ❤️🎄
@PoliteOcean Here's how the past week went. Monday I went grocery shopping and also for a walk. Wednesday Deysi canceled on me because her car was broken down. Friday Deysi canceled on me again so no walk. Saturday I went for a 16 minute walk through my creepy neighborhood. The weather has been colder, so fortunately I have a space heater right next to my bed. I also am using the blanket my sister got me for Christmas. I'm watching psychology videos for 60 minutes per day, and listening to Christian music 15-20 minutes before going to bed. For this upcoming week, I have grocery shopping and a walk on Monday. Tuesday I have an appointment to see my doctor for the laceration on my ear. That means no acupuncture two weeks in a row. I don't know if Deysi wants to work on Friday since it's Christmas Eve. I found a disability support site that's just as active as 7 cups. I still haven't received my new prescription from my psychiatrist yet from two weeks ago. The communication with my clinic leaves a lot to be desired. I hosted the sharing circle every day this week.
@Regmo
Hey there Regmo.... Its good that you were able to get in your grocery shopping and that you managed to get in a walk for yourself over the past week. Sorry to hear that Deysi had to cancel on you both days. Hopefully she gets things sorted out with her car soon! You are right,... the weather has certainly been getting colder. I too keep a space heater right beside me at all times day or night. How nice that your sister got you a blanket. Sounds like its just what you needed for this time of year! And the perfect gift. Good for you for keeping up with your videos and that you are continuing to find a great way to relax and wind down with some Christian music before bed. I used to do that as well. And found that it was certainly calming beforehand. Sounds like you have another busy week ahead with things. And hopefully you can get your walk in, and also get back on track with the acupuncture at some point. I think its great that you were able to find another support site that keeps you just as active, and hopefully gives the support of 7cups as well. Would love to hear about it if you'd like to tell me more. Hopefully you get things situated with your prescription. Thats crazy that you've been waiting 2 weeks. And that you are having the issues that you are having with your clinic. I understand places like that can get busy, but thats still no excuse for subpar care and communication with patients!... .Just my opinion. Congrats to you on continuing to keep up with your hosting of the sharing circle! I need to make some time to stop by there, its surely been awhile. Thank you for all you do there. And keep up the great work that you are doing. Thank you for sharing with us this week and keeping us up to date on things!
