**AND ANY & ALL "NEWBIES" THAT WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH US!
**Continuing to Work on my well-being.... continuing with scheduled appointments, daily journaling, meditation time, spending time w/ family & furbaby, & supporting a good friend. Also started something 'new' this past week that I'm looking forward to making progress with.
**The weather has been milder this week with a warm day or two above average... One of those days was on my Son's Birthday which we celebrated this week, as well as my Mom's birthday too... We had a "double-birthday" get together at her house. It was a nice, positive day for the week. 🍀
** No plans of yet in the weekend ahead....and weather will again be turning colder. But that happens this time of year~
@PoliteOcean hi ocean!
glad to hear you're working on your well-being by practicing journaling, meditating, spending time with loved ones and even giving out love to your friend! It sounds like you are taking good care of yourself and on top also support others. That is amazing to hear ❤️
I can imagine that a double birthday party with your son's birthday and your mothers birthday would be such a lovely time! I love the idea of merging those two into one big get-together. Glad to hear it was a really nice day for you! Spending time with your loved ones can really lift up our mood.
I hope that although the weather might be turning colder again where you live, that you will be able to keep experiencing such nice moments with your family & friends and keep practicing self care by all the activities you mentioned above. Way to go! Hope you have a great week.
Well I’ve been doing some more things that I enjoy like spending time with my cousin. It makes me feel mentally better to not be around toxic area 24/7
@HopieRemi hi remi!
Super glad to hear that you are able to spend some time with your cousin and that it is having a positive impact on your mental wellbeing to be around them. Glad you have that safe space and person to go to ❤️ thanks for sharing
@PoliteOcean
🍀 How has your week been?
My week has it’s ups and downs, but with the last 2 days, i can say I’m satisfied with how great they were.
🍀 This is the FIRST Check-in for the Month of MARCH~ What are you looking forwards to this month?
:0 honestly, I am hoping i age up by the end of this month (really first of april) (even though my birthday is in April) 😀
🍀What goals would you like to set for yourself in the new month ahead?
1. Don’t take things so much to heart. Especially the really mean comments
2. Have more fun
3. Try to connect with older hobbies
🍀 This week found 7cups celebrating Both NATIONAL OBESITY DAY AND NATIONAL DAY OF UN-PLUGGING..... (How did you take part?)... Has Obesity affected you or anyone you know and in what ways?.......ALSO... How did you take time for yourself to "Un-plug"?
I barely use social media to begin with 🤡 I haven’t used it in weeks
🍀What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" this past week?... How were you able to work through your challenges?!
Highlights: I had a sleepover last night, i was allowed to have a single alcoholic drink (under full supervision and i did eat a full dinner before it hahaha), I was allowed to blast my music today and just dance (like a weirdo).. that was fun, just standing there bobbing my head to the Crazy Frog (Axel F). XD I did 4 water colour paintings and yeah, I’ve found more joy in 2 days then i have in the last 7 weeks 😀
Struggles: 😀 I may have chosen bad coping habits this week, but i am doing everything to get rid of my bad habits and turn them into more better, healthier ones that brings me more happier feelings.
🍀What would "YOU" Like to talk about or share with us this week?! WE want to hear from YOU!
😮 I just want to say that You are All special and loved, and I appreciate and respect all of you’s. Stay amazing 💕
@emotionalTalker2260 talker ❤️
i am really happy to hear that in particular the last two days were going well for you during this past week. And I hope you have a lovely time before your aging-up birthday and an even better time on your actual birthday ❤️ welcome to the oldie side then ;)
I really like the three goals that you've set for yourself for this new month. Not taking mean comments too personally can be really challenging, especially when they come from people close to us, but it is doable to learn to rather ignore them. I always think that when someone is saying something mean to me, they must be incredibly unhappy themselves to say something like this to others and share so much negativity. What others say to us usually has less to do with us, and more to do with them and how they actually feel. Yay on having more fun and connecting with older hobbies! Any particular ideas so far?
happy to hear about those fun times at the sleepover, dancing to music and colour painting! Makes me want to get up and dance too 😛 I believe you are a very strong person to acknowledge your bad habits (we all have them) and further even try to replace them with healthier habits. Way to go, Talker!!
Thank you very much for checking in. Hope you have a lovely week ahead!
@AveryLove
:0 Avery 💕
🙈 wasn’t expecting to see you answer hahaha 💕🥺💕💕💕
and yes, me must kick my bad habits 😀 and I’m slowly getting there.
Made it to the gym 3 times this week after not making it for months. Stress from returning to the office after almost 2 years really got to me, but I really needed to get back to it. Now I’m feeling more into this form of habit and feel pretty proud about it!
@jbl383
Thats great for you that you were able to make it back to the gym after such a long hiatus. And that it made you feel good to be back at it..... , and perhaps even seemingly has you more motivated to Keep going. Keep up the great work.
🍀 How has your week been?
It has been hard and there have also been so many good streams of silver and gold in it. My husband has been at his new job for almost a month now and it's been wonderful (and busy!), I went to a conference for work that was long but I loved some parts of it, and I updated all work systems with my new married name! (These are some of the good parts)
🍀 This is the FIRST Check-in for the Month of MARCH~ What are you looking forwards to this month?
I am so looking forward to my family's little trip this month! I am also looking forward to a sprint period we have coming up at work where I will be working at double speed for two weeks before the new work cycle starts. (I am telling myself to look forward to this sprint because I am also very worried about how successful I will be in terms of output.)
🍀What goals would you like to set for yourself in the new month ahead?
Submit my final big work report! Finish going over the four reports my direct reports have submitted. And get some idea of what my next term's report structure will be like. (:
🍀 This week found 7cups celebrating NATIONAL DAY OF UN-PLUGGING..... (How did you take part?) How did you take time for yourself to "Un-plug"?
I wish I had more time to plan to take part in this! I'm going to mark a day on my calendar to do my own little celebration since I didn't know this one was coming in time. I plan on enjoying it by spending an errand day where I'm not also juggling work. It seems a little crazy writing it like that but it's so easy to get stressed out on errand days because I'm not available to my coworkers while I'm out, and trying to be available splits my attention and stress.
🍀What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" this past week?... How were you able to work through your challenges?!
Highlights: Many, talked about some already (:
Struggles: Bad fear days. But as some highlights there have been recoveries from them, and easing of those that couldn't be recovered from.
@nordurnStar hi star. good to see you checking in with us.
i'm glad to hear that despite having had a hard week you were able to experience some good moments as well, such as your husband being content with his new job and your conference at work! Glad you had those positive moments in your week and I hope they were able to at least uplift you a little bit ❤️
a family trip sounds like so much fun! I can understand that would be something to look forward to! and great that in March you'll move to a sprint period even though you might feel stressed about it (which is totally valid) - I am 100% sure you will do just fine, as youre already doing amazing by holding onto this positive mindset 😊
& good luck with your final work report! sounds like work-wise theres a lot going on - but I always say, after a period of stepping outside of our comfort zone theres so much growth and rewards waiting for us! & same applies to you. Celebrating yourself by planning an errand day and balancing your time with work sounds like an amazing idea.
sending you much love for this upcoming time ❤️ thank you for checking in with us and I hope you have a lovely, abundant week ahead of you.
@PoliteOcean
🍀 How has your week been?
My week has been...okay.
🍀 This is the FIRST Check-in for the Month of MARCH~ What are you looking forwards to this month?
My birthday!
🍀What goals would you like to set for yourself in the new month ahead?
Hopefully get answers to chronic health issues.
🍀What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" this past week?... How were you able to work through your challenges?!
Dealing with health issues. Nothing to be done except wait for them to (hopefully) pass.
@UberRuminator hello there!
yay, a birthday is one wonderful thing to look forward to for sure ❤️ anything special planned for that day? (even if its just taking some care of yourself and doing something nice for yourself)
I can understand that dealing with health issues could have a big impact on ones overall wellbeing and I'm very sorry to hear about your struggles. I can relate to how frustrating it can be to have to be patient with receiving answers. I am crossing my fingers for you that you get to receive answers very soon this month and that your health issues until then will calm down a little bit. sending you lots of healing wishes and strength during this time. let us know if you need anything or how we can support you during this time ❤️
@AveryLove
My birthday falls during the week, so I will be at work. Nothing planned other than that.
Thank you for the comments regarding my health.
@PoliteOcean Here's how the past week went. Monday I went grocery shopping and also for a walk. Wednesday I went to acupuncture and also for a walk. Friday I submitted a blood test and urine test. That was a major accomplishment. Saturday I decided to skip the walk through my creepy neighborhood. The disability chat room is very supportive and I'm listening to worship music for 15 minutes before I go to bed. For this upcoming week, Monday I have grocery shopping and go for a walk. Tuesday I have my 5th EMDR session. I hope I get some relief from my trauma that I've been carrying around for so long. Wednesday I have acupuncture. Sometime during the month of March I should probably go to the chiropractor and also get a haircut.
@Regmo
Hi Regmo, good job at continuing to keep up on all your appointments, and keeping up with your walks. Thats great for you that you are continuing to find the support you need in the disability chat room. And great job at continuing to engage in worship music to help you relax before bed. Hopefully you will continue to find benefit with EMDR. I hear it can really be challenging before it gets better. And hopefully you will be able to get your appointments in this month that you are needing. Sounds like things are continuing to remain stable for you at this time. Thank you for sharing this week and checking in.
@PoliteOcean
🍀 How has your week been?
This week seems to be going better (so far at least)
🍀 This is the FIRST Check-in for the Month of MARCH~ What are you looking forwards to this month?
I'm looking forward to the weather getting warmer
🍀What goals would you like to set for yourself in the new month ahead?
I'm going to try journaling everyday again.
🍀What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" this past week?... How were you able to work through your challenges?!
I've been struggling with depression but it seems to be getting better. I took some time to reorganize my life lol
@777Bre777
Hi Bre, its great that you are going to try to continue with journaling everyday. I find it can be helpful when needed.
Its good that you feel your depression is getting better for you.... It can be challenging to work on, but journaling your thoughts (or even positive thoughts) can help with that too. So its good for you that you are going to try to do more of it. And taking time to reorganize things in your life, can certainly help in cleaning up a "cluttered" mind or thoughts as well. Great job.
Thanks for checking in this week and sharing.
I think I am maintaining my progress. I have had to rest for a few days, but it does not put me behind my goals. Part of my progress is learning what to do on the days I'm not feeling well in a healthy way.
@koalabear122
Hi Koala, thats great for you that you that you are maintaining your progress, while also learning to set boundaries for yourself when needed. Great job, keep up the great work and thanks for checking in this week to share.
Not much to write ,, but had 7 inches of snow, that's enough of snow hoping for nice weather to take my cat outside and enjoy the warm weather... I've been helping around the house because I've been stuck at home and need to do things to get tired at night .....I don't have anything more to say unless someone wants to chat with me ...
