100 Things You Like About Yourself

[Deleted member 12723]

I am enough to handle the buisiness problems we have. I have alot of calls to make today. I am enough to do this. I get alittle nervous when I start, and then I get to talk to the parties and try to resolve the situation. I will have to do this today. But I am not ready yet. My husband is worrying about it, he just wants it done. But with the lewy body dementia, he does'nt understand what I have to do. It produces anxiety in me. I do my best. I have my work cut out for me today. I am glad I can do this well.

5. As afraid as I have been, I have always stood up for others when they are being victimised.
6. I am quirky.

I love that I quit smoking. I love that I do not bite my fingernails to the quick anymore. I love that I do not drink anymore.

I am super organized. When I was working, they called me the "Binder Queen", and now I still keep most of my personal stuff in binders.

I am frugal, or you might just say, I just love a bargain, when I can find them.

21. I reflect a lot about myself and my needs.
22. I make a lot of effort to be honest to myself.

 

[Let It Be]

I like the fact that I was able to work at one job for 30 years.

Put up with a lot until I gave my notice on my birthday, after 9/11 happened, but one boss, I owe her everything, as she was instrumental in me beginning to look at my family of origin and what had happened to me, etc.

She was the one I read my autobiography to and went from having no feelings to knowing when I was sad, mad, glad, etc.

I like the fact that my emotional numbness is thawing out, and I am starting to feel feelings. I think the emdr is helping this to happen. I am getting closer to feeling the good feelings.

8. I've stopped self harming
9. I have nice nails, now I've stopped biting them
10. I can draw quite well
11. I am always on time
12. I like my rather unique middle fingers (the top knuckles are bent at a weird angle:p)
13. I like my mad, although rather dark sense of humour, especially when others are like "what's so funny?" :D

I manage to keep up with the running of the household. It is hard at times, but I actually make it easier for myself.

I like that I try to be cheerful. Even when I am not feeling good, I try. It helps to smile and to speak in a cheerful voice. It makes it better for my husband and my family. I will call my family today.
