🌞 This past week was well & went by quickly.... Last weekend I had a nice relaxing time at home on Saturday, getting things done, swimming in my pool, & then a nice relaxing evening in..., We then spent Father's day on Sunday at my Mom's house with my little family, And all had a nice time together.... I was able to continue to keep up & stay on track with my goals for myself.... Sleep has improved, & Hydration has definitely been awesome with the Hot weather!...
🌴 I stayed on track this week with all my Workouts & activities, as well as meal-planning.... I'm thinking of switching up my meals & trying something new. But trying to figure out "exactly How" to incorporate what I want I'm thinking of doing....As I've been following a 'Meal-plan' where I don't actually have to "think" too much or too hard about what & when to eat. As I like to keep meals "Simple" so I have to continue to figure that out for myself....
🌊 It's been pretty hot here this week & about to get even hotter this weekend & week ahead.... Intentions for the weekend ahead will include "sleeping in" a bit, getting in a Saturday morning Zumba class, & a home workout on Sunday.... along with some time in the Pool, a few errands, some shopping, family time & movie night.
🍍 JUST FOR FUN:... As Many of us have entered the Summer Season this week, WHAT is ONE word that describes how Summer-Time makes you feel?!... "HAPPY"~
@PoliteOcean Going back a week ago, the remote control stopped working and Sifa hasn't fixed it. He's very lazy. I bought an emergency supply of peanut butter and I'm keeping it in my bedroom. Leslie's been late with serving me breakfast. It's very distressing. Rich people are more important than poor people. Stuart tried to hit me again but I deflected it before his arm touched my face. I can watch videos on my new Obama phone which I couldn't do with my old one. The problem is sometimes my carpal tunnel syndrome bothers me. I went to the library twice and went for a walk twice. That's really not enough. Libraries are noisy places these days. Friday I had to cut my reading time short because there was too much noise. My brother Greg is on a bizarre mental side trip.
@Regmo
Hi Regmo~ That’s good that you are doing the things that you can control by getting more peanut butter for yourself & having your own stash when needed. Im surprised that Stuart is allowed to remain in the house if he’s being violent towards others? Thats good that you’re able to use your phone in the way you desire… Despite not being able to walk or go to the library as often as you wish, it’s great that you were still able to get out & about for a awhile. Maybe you could ask a worker at the library which times of the day are more quiet & try to work around those times if feasible that is. I haven’t been inside a library in ages, but the last one I was in, early day times seemed more quiet than afternoon or evenings. Good luck with finding a better time that suits you being able to read more. Thanks for checking in & sharing your week. Please keep us updated.
@PoliteOcean
Hey Everyone, Happy Weekend & Welcome Summer!... How are you doing today? I am in a very odd head space. I have been dealing with troublesome neighbors who have moved in. I'm also looking for a job. I need one before the fall semester starts or I probably won't be able to get a student loan for the fall. That means I won't be able to attend school, and my student loan repayments would kick in. I can' t afford that. I'm very depressed and anxious about walking outside because I live in a dangerous area. So, I'm in talks with the management company to get them to let me out of my lease. I'm also waiting for a moving company to call me back and let me know how much it would take to move to different places. Oh yes, and low income community in Oregon called me and said that they are taking me off the wait list, because I have turned down apartments 2 times. That is their limit. The times they offered me an apartment was just the wrong time for me to move. So I'm trying to focus on interviews and school, but my head is spinning.
🌴 This is our "4th" Check-in for the Month of JUNE~.... We have one more week left ahead for this month... What would you like to get completed or accomplished before the month ends... Or what is something that you’re looking forwards to?! I want to find a part time job. I also just want to get away from where I live.
🌊 What are some things over the past week that you have felt Thankful & Grateful for, Or even Mindful of ?... I've been thanking God for all that he has given me, an apartment door that I can lock and feel safe, and an apartment where I can be dry and food to eat, and of course, my kitty, Chloe. He gave Chloe and I to each other. She is my family and without her I would not be here anymore.
🏊 JUST FOR FUN:... As Many of us have entered the Summer Season this week, WHAT is ONE word that describes how Summer-Time makes you feel?! Thankful
🍍What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?.... How were you able to work through your challenges?! I'm so tired of fighting to get through life. I did what I needed to do this week and then slept because I felt I needed it.
🌞 What is something that "YOU" want to talk about, add or share with us this week?! .... WE want to hear from YOU~ I feel like I can't do it. I feel like I don't know what I'm doing. There is too much going on but it is necessary to help me, get a job, get through school so I can get a better paying job, get away from here so I can feel safer, exercise so I can lose weight and be healthier. I just have been tears a lot in the past week, like I am now. I feel like I can't do it, and if I do, no one will care...I have no one who cares. I want my cat, Chloe, to be in my arms, because she is the only one who loves me. Thanks for asking, Ocean. --tree

Hey there Tree!~
Oh wow Tree…Sorry to hear that you’re still dealing with your troublesome neighbors. As well as still trying to find a job that will suit you (which in turn seems to be having a trickle-down effect with various other things)…. I can certainly understand why you feel the way you feel with so many different emotions! ….. It makes sense that you want to get a job as soon as you can and move away from an area that is not the best or safest place to be.
I think it’s amazing that during such a time in your life that you are continuing to hold on to God & continuing to sing his praises for all that he’s blessed your life with. I can see that despite the challenges that you are quite a strong-willed person! And that you are going to make your way through all of it! With the Lord by your side & staying strong in him, You CAN (& Will) do All things!
“Thankful” is a wonderful word to describe Summer. It really does make us feel (thankful). Just in simply enjoying a beautiful sunny day, & remembering all that we have. ❤️
It’s also good that through it all that you are continuing to take care of yourself and rest when needed. And always remember Tree that “We” do care here at Cups! You will always have support here in any way that we are able to offer it. We are here for you…. And (your kitty) 🐈⬛ is definitely a huge Bonus! Pets are so wonderful in that aspect. They truly are. 🙏🏼
You are going to make it Tree. You will. 💝
Thank you so much for sharing your week Tree and letting us know how you are doing. Please continue to keep us updated on everything.
@PoliteOcean I'm pond, and I'm not sure how I'm doing this week. It's not really anyone's business anyway. But I will say I'm pretty detached from myself; almost chronically and constantly critical. It's okay because it's an improvement on how I was before - basically ignoring myself and my needs and thoughts utterly and completely. ...at least now I'm noticing them, the way one must notice the dirt and grime in their home in order to clean it.
While on a walk last night and doing a six-seven hour sidewalk chalk art project I noticed this inner chatter makes me stiff as a board, unable to embrace my femininity or be present and flow. And I had plans to deep clean my whole home and get it in order before the official start of summer, which I fear makes me a failure, because no, I didn't and I doubt anything good or great exists at this point.
The walls of my home are super thick so it holds heat, making my heatstroke feel even more impossible to manage. My air conditioner isn't working well and the staff here (And landlord.) is maybe not my cup of tea.
Past trauma and attempts to let it go seem impossible to manage at times. I'd like to try do nothing this weekend without guilt, but I don't even think I've got a tiny handle on shame, let alone guilt. I've already failed anyway what with the truffle extravaganza I had after my midnight walk. Why I keep eating chocolate when I'm allergic to it is beyond me at this time. My next support appointment is on Tuesday.

Hey Pond~ Despite what you’re feeling it’s good that you are feeling that it’s an “improvement” on how things were. That’s definitely a positive.
It also definitely sounds like you are going through and dealing with alot of things and various emotions & challenges… It’s great that you are realizing some things for yourself, & even better that you have sought out the support you need.
Good for you for making yourself a priority and knowing that you need that help. Keep up the great work there and may everything else continues to come together and improve in time.
There’s also plenty of support for you here at 7cups. Whether a 1-1 listener, or our many group supports. (In particular, Depression Support & Trauma Support), where you might also benefit from as well.
Thanks for checking in and sharing your week. Continue to keep us updated.
