Good job making your list! I took a nap and am waking up for the second time, but I'll make a list and play, too because I need to do more than watch camping YouTube videos and drink coffee today!

Wash dishes - 40

Print out paystubs -20

Vacuum - 5

Clean table - 5

Sweep kitchen - 10

Make dinner - 20

I'll update you later. It's 12:07 here so maybe I'll try to start at 1pm. Lol.

@IsayUncle. Awesome! I'm jealous your dishes are done. I started with my easier stuff: vacuuming, kitchen floor, and table. I also did the car litter bc I forgot it on my list. Next I'm going to soak some dishes to get those started.

I'm done with dinner, printing off 8 months of paystubs for my son's SSI and I did probably 3/4 of the dishes. I still hope to finish those but I'm taking a break right now.

You are make great progress today too! Did you have a snack? I'm having oatmeal with mango, raisins, and almond milk with cinnamon and stevia.

@Psalm139

Whoa, you're about all done with yours too. Awesome! I'll bet doing those checks and all involved is a big relief to be done with. Good for you. I finished my floors and clothes, yup, honest!

Your snack sounds really good and healthy too! I did not have a sit down snack but nibbled on some boiled peanuts and barbaque chips. + some V8 juice (carrot - ginger). Enjoy your break. I'm on a roll so I'm staying at it.

Yea, that's great. Thank you so much too for helping me. I feel great this morning because of what I got done yesterday. We kicked butt; Right?

I hope you have a good day today

I'm still dealing with my CDL so I'll be there most of the day and then help a friend adjust brakes on a dump truck. If I can help another get a recliner out of the house, that will be a FULL day! Glad we got done what we did yesterday. Awesome how it cleared my mind for today!💚

Not really honestly. I've been really emotional and down today but that's life. I'm about to make dinner and hopefully get a few chores done while things are cooking. I missed you today. But it's cool that you had another full and productive day💙

I was tired, I layed down for awhile. I struggle for good days too. You have obligations so it's harder for you to rest than me.

By the way, yesterday was fun for me too. I am sorry you're felt down today. I do too, that's what I meant when I said I was tired.

@IsayUncle I'm sorry you understand but also sometimes it's nice to have someone understand. Does that make sense?

There are so many people that try to help but sometimes you just need someone to not try to fix it and just say, yeah. I feel that way too. You know?

I guess we can be grateful we have up days sometimes too. Some people are just depressed allll the time. When I feel like this I wish I could sleep because sometimes I can wake up and be ok.

Thanks for being here💙

@Psalm139

I think it’s ironic we both are carrying destructive baggage from our childhoods, especially at the ages we are. It’s a great topic and I’m going to write a post just about that sometime soon. I think/hope it’ll be relatable. But I will say something right now that I’ve learned. Other people want to be seen and heard too and if you are not seeing and hearing them enough, they got their own problems and they walk away to deal with themselves… like most people do. So, most of time it’s them, not you. I know, I know you have a personality that pushes people away and I’m not doubting that BUT that can be improved on; just by basic social education. IT IS NOT A FLAW…It’s normal and it’s normal for people to look out for themselves first, and it’s normal to lose friends and loved ones and it’s normal to want that golden relationship but in the meantime, we could learn to be in a golden relationship with ourselves because life is amazing today as we figure it out. And isn’t that why we are here together at 7-Cups?

I know all of this is so very serious and very hard to deal with. But you're being honest and you'll get it because you’re trying.

@IsayUncle I look forward to reading what you write about it. To be honest though I don't think I can really be fixed. I think maybe the traumas happened too young and my brain didn't develop normally. Maybe I can learn to deal better with things. I don't know 😕

Awww, you're OK P, I didn't mean anything like that. I haven't shared my story with anyone here yet but I think I'd like to sometime. In the meantime, we don't have to be fixed, but seeking betterment is OK, right? I don't mean to be heavy, that's my burden and how I push people away. (not on purpose)💚
