I'm planning on going out and about today... so walking is definitely on the agenda. I've been off track on exercise, but if I manage to get to all the stores on the list (3 or 4) and walk through them all at a quick pace just trying to get the lists done for about two hours total... well, I've...

:coffee: I am grateful for having this big, huge cup of tea and a fancy raspberry croissant for breakfast... Which I'm lucky enough to enjoy in my beautiful, clean house... Because I'm grateful each and every day for having a roof over my head and food to eat with my beautiful family... And...

I've been MIA on the forum pretty much since Sunday, January 26th, I think... I was feeling a little depressed, but okay-ish. Things were hectic IRL, though. Y'know. These things happen, and now I'm trying to get back on track without worrying too much about falling off the bandwagon of...

What am I feeling today? :cautious: Tired. :unsure: But basically okay. :joyful:

How'd I do with yesterday's goals? :cautious: :smug: Meditate - Done! Eat well. :hungry: - I did. I only ate two meals, but they were both healthy meals. :coffee: Self-care. - Doing pretty good. Work on my personal journal and Trauma Diary. :bookworm: - I wrote in my personal journal...

I'm grateful for my family. :hug:

What are my goals for this week? :cautious: (I had to switch my goals from daily to sometime this week, because I'm struggling and it might take me awhile to get back on track.) :smug: Meditate. Eat well. :hungry: :coffee: Self-care. Work on my personal journal and Trauma Diary...

What am I feeling today? :cautious: Tired. :unsure: Unmotivated. :meh: Irritated. :mad: Frustrated. :confused:

I am grateful for people who believe in me even when I'm having so much trouble believing in myself. :joyful:

I'm grateful for my husband, who was really cool last night when I was in a really sad and miserable mood. I'm grateful my kids had so much fun yesterday! I love to see them happy! I'm grateful for trashy burgers and crispy fries with ketchup. I'm also grateful for chocolate ice cream with...

Let's talk Sunday first... I did get over to the gym and I spent 30 minutes there Sunday afternoon. So that was good! Right before I went to the store and I ended up buying some cardigans and tops that I had wanted for a while. I got some really good deals, too, so it was nice that I waited...

:eek: I'm feeling stupid and terrible that my last post was too wordy and way too long. Forgive me. :unsure:

Well, I'm feeling disappointed with myself for getting off track... I like to spend some time analyzing my mood everyday, and yesterday I didn't. So now I'm trying to catch up, so I can kinda sorta pretend I didn't get off track. :wacky: Yesterday I felt horrible and sad and miserable. It...

I got my shit self together and I stopped complaining about having a cold and I went to the gym and walked around the track for 30 minutes. Yay! :laugh: I had really, really gotten off track with getting exercise and walking in almost everyday, both because of having a cold and because it's...

Still doing okay with general self-care, except I'm not getting enough exercise. I really, really want to fix that today, but I can already feel myself coming up with 6,214 different excuses not to go over to the gym and walk around the track. :confused: I also want to get to the store and...

I'm grateful for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches cut into 4 triangles. :joyful:

I'm feeling a little tired, but basically okay. :smug: But I'm really sick and tired of PTSD. :mad: Really, really. I'm lacking my usual positive feelings and hope today. PTSD is just feeling like a life sentence, which, it kinda sorta is, but some days I'm much more positive about being...

Hmmm... @franciemarnie, @Ms Spock, I really appreciate your responses. This would actually make a great separate thread... but I'm too tired and unmotivated to start it, LOL! :laugh: (Apologies to all for going off topic here.) See... I'll usually nap for 2 or close to 3 hours, and that's a...

Hey @franciemarnie, what do you define as a solid nap? Because sometimes napping just makes it worse... I think I sleep too long when napping then I have even more trouble getting to sleep at bedtime. What do you find works for a restorative nap that doesn't mess with going to sleep later at...

I'm grateful my kids are so happy and for the most part really occupied with friends this weekend. :joyful: I'm going to try to be kind to myself and take good care of myself and maybe push past this cold and being in a kinda depressive slump. :hug: So, I'm grateful I have the time and space...

Doing okay with the self-care, except that nightmares are really messing with my sleep schedule. :confused: Things aren't too bad yet, but I've got to get this fixed before things really go to hell and I can't sleep at all, or for only 3 hours a night or whatever. :dead: It's going to be a...

I'm feeling tired and unmotivated. :unsure: Had so many weird and sort of terrible nightmares last night. Not getting a good night's sleep messes with everything! :confused:

Hey AL, Well... I hate therapy. I'm still going and I'm seeing a very good trauma therapist... but in a way, I've found the most helpful things have been things I've been doing on my own. That being said, I'm still very much in the middle of the process (I was just diagnosed officially with...

I'm grateful for four day weekends. :laugh: I'm grateful my kids have so many friends and lots of fun activities planned for the weekend, they're really in a good mood. :joyful:

Did okay yesterday. :joyful: Just going to keep at it until I feel a bunch better, then I really want to get back to my work out schedule and doing a lot of other things on my extended to do list. :laugh: Y'know, maybe next week. ;)
