@Mellietronx Hi there friend! I am so glad to hear that you were doing pretty good and I hope that you are still doing well! How wonderful it is when nothing is upsetting us! I didn't like getting up early for work either when I used to have to! Thank you for checking in with me and have a beautiful night and good week ahead!
@PeppermintStar0912 hi!
1. How are you feeling emotionally today? i am feeling pretty well. i am proud because i just got back my grade report for this semester and even though it isnt perfect, its the best i have ever had so far in my whole school time!
2. Is there anything bothering you or upsetting you?
physically i am not feeling the best at the moment. due to "ladies issues" i feel pretty sick all day.
3. What is one responsibility you wish you didn't have?
right now i feel grateful for everything i have planned and need to do :) theres no task i would rather skip.
@AveryLove
Gratitude is great! I've been trying to practice it myself but have slacked off recently.
@LadyPuggins i agree! it is pretty difficult to do sometimes.
@AveryLove Hello there friend! Wow, that is so wonderful that this is the best grade report that you've ever received! GREAT job and I am so proud of you! I'm sorry that you aren't feeliing your best physically and I totally understand why! I hope you feel better soon! I love that you feel so grateful for everything that you need to do! Thank you for checking in with me and have a beautiful night!

1. How are you feeling emotionally today?
not great feel worthless
2. Is there anything bothering you or upsetting you?
recently was teased on a game i play then because i was hurt by it blamed for choosing not to laugh with it isnt that an abusive mindset blaming the victim
@NevaehRose Hi there. I'm really sorry for how you were feeling. I feel worthless sometimes and it feels really bad so I hope you feel better soon. It's not very nice when people tease others and I don't think they should've teased you in the first place so I am sorry they did that to you. Thank you for sharing this with me and checking in. Have a beautiful night!
Emotionally, I'm okay! My spirits are high despite my long to-do list and rough week. Thanks for asking!
I'm bothered that my life is uprooted at the moment. I'm moving into my boyfriend's and we're at the disaster stage of unboxing, so I haven't groomed properly or rested well or felt not-stressed since before the holidays, hahaha. It'll be okay, though. I've finally brought in all my stuff, so we're gettin' ready to settle down.
I would like to not have to do my taxes. I know you can pay a guy to handle that, but I'm not rich enough for that. Haha. It'd be nice to not have to deal with my own finances at all, really, only because I'm just so bad at math.
@betterchoices
I'm glad you're in good spirits! Also, yes, taxes suck.
@betterchoices Hi there! I am really glad to hear that your spirits are high! That is surely something to celebrate! That is so great that you and boyfriend moved in together and I can totally understand how stressful that time in the beginning of the move is! Everything can get really frustrating because you don't know where anything is going to go yet but you have a good attitude about it! Taxes are NOT fun at all and I wish I didn't have to do mine either! Thank you for checking in with me and have a beautiful night!
I think l am doing that amnesia disassociation thing again. Like ...yeah that happened to someone else. But in my defense it took a year to realize it was reality. That was only 30 days ago. So 30 reality days. I don't know how I feel about numbness. Better than pain but you know you're just prolonging it. A double edged sword. Ugh
@95969 Hi there friend! I hope you are doing well today!

FRIDAY! January 31, 2020. The last day of the first month 
1. How are you feeling emotionally today?
My emotions feel as though they have been all over today. Still a lot of sad, though.
2. Is there anything bothering you or upsetting you?
I am upset that my mother is taking her dog on a trip 6 hours away. Mom and Dad are both leaving (for about 2 weeks) so that could be perfect time to spend with their dog, uninterrupted. My own dog, SFO, I miss him something terrible - so I was hoping to spend some time with my parents' dog.
3. What is one responsibility you wish you didn't have?
One thing I wish I did not have to do is: to pay rent! To me, rent is such a big waste of money. The help with maintenance is nice. I do like to swim and use the pool. But I wish I could somehow afford to ?? buy a house, perhaps? Then I would have mortgage payments. But at the end of all those mortgage payments I would still have something! (namely, a house! or some sort of place to live that I'd own) When I move from my apartment here, I get nothing. Not even a brick for "I was here." So, yes, that is a current responsibility that I wish I did not have.
P.S. Yes, this Platy here, she could use some hugs. And a good night's rest would be much appreciated - if any of you have one of those that I might have.
@cyanPlatypus6370
100% feel you on the rent thing. But on the bright side - with an apartment, you're free to pack up and move elsewhere. When you get a house, it's a long-term commitment.
@cyanPlatypus6370 Hi there. My emotions go all over the place a lot so I know what you mean! I'm sorry that you are feeling sad and I hope you feel better soon! I can see why you are upset that you mother is taking her dog because you did want to spen time with the dog too. I agree wtih you- I think rent is such a waste of money! That would be so so nice if you could one day buy a place of your very own! Thank you for sharing this with me and checking in. Have a beautiful night.
1+2. Emotionally, I am feeling tired likely due to my insomnia. I also feel emotionally unwell. In general, I am dissatisfied with my life. I am attempting to take steps to try and feel greater life satisfaction and happiness, but it is slow and at the moment practically at a standstill. I get a bit frustrated with myself for not doing the things I need to do but remind myself that these things take time and I am doing the best I can. I am also somewhat stressed by my financial situation.
3. I wish that bills and rent were not a thing I had to worry about so that I could spend my life trying to live to the fullest instead of feeling like I might be deteriorating behind a cash register.
@LadyPuggins Hi there! I have insomnia too and it is very frustrating! I am tried often and definitely know how you feel. I'm sorry that you are feeling unwell emotionally and that you are not very satisfied with your life. I think that it is absolutely wonderful that you are taking steps to increase your happiness and you are right- These things take time. I love your attitude about it! It would be nice if bills and rent didn't exist! Thank you for checking in with me and have a beautiful night!
