5 Things I'm Thinking Today

[Muttly]

@jaccat I feel you with the bad things happening. I had that thought the other day.

1) When was the last time I had a vacation?
2) I need to get my butt moving
3) Speaking of butts, I need to poop :laugh:
4) Does anyone want to make a phone call for me?
5) please get out of my head

1. So many jobs to quote and that is what is on the agenda for today.
2. Make sure the nursing home has everything they need at this point.
3. Set a boundary and enforce it regardless of the outcome.
4. People make their own choices and their actions have consequences that are not my problem.
5. Set some things up for myself.

- Hangover for bad sleep and meds.
- Cofee Must done miracles with me today
- Should I go for a Day Off with my women's group on Sat? With this mood, I can't socialize...No filter of if my thoughts, disaster garantized..
- Art journaling and writting it is being a safe life table for me.
- An every day work to ground myself safely. I feel empowered taking my own decisions.

I wish this pain would go away
I have ruined everything by not being strong enough
I bet my psychologist is having a party because he doesn't have to see me again
I hope the crisis team come on time today
I am a useless human being

A walk would be great. Can I take a break from this essay?
I am grateful that some of my cognitive issues seem to be helped by remembering to take iron.
I am grateful that I am decently interested in this essay, and that it is just enough of a stretch without sending me into panic. I can do this.
I think I am going to take a walk.
Sometimes it is necessary to postpone immediate desires for long term goals. It is important for functioning. Leave the party on time tonight, and take care of your body.

1. So I won't go tomorrow, no big deal, it's only going to make me sad to see you anyways
2. Why her? She's so.. Yeuch! :cautious::wtf:
3. I'm still so very lost
4. If I feel OK I'll go to the other things this week
5. I hope I'll be able to make it because I'm dying for human company now

Thinking how grateful I am that the forum is here for all of us... and that admin and mods keep an eye on us, but always give us a chance, if we just try. And learn quick... Yes, I learned quick... :)
Thinking I am grateful to be back home after my vacation, such a very needed vacation.. had a great time, thought of so many of you.
Thinking how cool it would have been for a bunch of us to get to vacation together.... what fun!!
Thinking a shower and sleeping in my own bed tonight is going to be so good...
Thinking I will get to sleep in tomorrow, no plans... but had such a great time !!

@ladee if we had a vacation together, would we have lots of quiet places to hide? And of course, I'd make sure we had a good supply of puppies

1) C'mon energy. Where are you? I have things to do
2) So was it food poisoning? I wasn't quite sick enough, but.. I don't know what else it could be
3) so, yesterday I didn't have much food in my system (see number 2) and was dehydrated by the end of the day. I did manage to get fluids in me. And while this may sound weird, all the ....errr... bathroom issues seemed to make my back bad. I mean, it's in one if it's pain cycles but dang. It was so bad last night. So I took a couple muscle relaxers along with my night meds and fell asleep. The dog woke me up desperately needing out. Got up to let him out. Came to on the floor. I had fainted. The door was open about an inch so I must have been opening it when I fainted. Pulled myself together and stepped out on the porch with him, because he's a wuss and was refusing to go out alone. As I closed the siding glass door I heard a slight click. Well, I was hoping it was nothing but I pulled on the door and sure enough, it had locked itself. The door used to do that years ago but I fixed it. Of course, it happens for the first time in years at 2:00 am on a day full of toilet runs and having just fainted. So I scrounge around for the hide-a-key for the other door. The sliding door doesn't have a key lock. But the door that has the lock is on the chain. I hope my arm is scrawny enough to unlock it but nope. So, I have a toolbox accessible and finally manage to pry one of the windows open. Getting in would have been much easier if I was willing to break something but as it is, it took time and effort. If I hadn't been so worried about needing bathroom access I probably would have slept in the hammock or my car. The bright side about the whole thing adventure is that I see the humorous side. I mean, sometimes my life gets so ridiculous I consider it bad comedy.
4) Dang, number 3 was long.
5) How long do I wait for L to call before I decide she's ditched me. And given number 3 and 2, when she does call do I just ask to reschedule?

Yes @Muttly , I know of all kinds of places to hide, you could just come visit me, and I would show you places all around.. no people, just nature noise, if you like nature, but not necessarily at 2am with tummy troubles.... sorry, had to laugh about locking yourself out. reminds me of a time I locked myself out of my car... called the police to help, couldn't afford a locksmith, and while the cop was hemhawing, that was before they opened cars as a community enhancement..a guy come walking by.. inked arms, some looked like jailhouse tats, and he asked what was wrong, told him.. Can't even describe how he bent that window out without breaking it, and unlocked my car.. with the cop standing there with his mouth open.. He couldn't do anything, as I gave the guy permission... but at least then I understood where the jailhouse ink came from... lol... ya, I know about bad comedies... if you live as long as I have they stack up !! :D
Sorry about the thread hijack !!:rolleyes:

Well I had to laugh about locking myself out too. I'm glad it give you a laugh too. At least I had a full set of jammies on. Normally I sleep just in boxers and my porch is private enough that late at night I have gone out there like that. :giggle: But yes, as I'm trying to pry my window open at 2am, I found myself thinking how ridiculous the whole thing.

My friend locked her keys in her car in Seattle once. She said this guy came along, pulled a slim jim out of his coat and had her car open in less than 5 seconds. And then kept walking. And yes, it was clear what that guy often did. Maybe we have been underrating car thieves all along. Maybe they have an underground community service network. Locked out? No worries, your thief will be there in moments to save the day. :woot:

Music has an incredible ability to bring out feelings from the depths. Double-edged sword there.
I miss S, and am looking forward to seeing J and her tomorrow.
Life grows more and more absurd. I feel grateful for the opportunities I have had and have.
I'm learning to accept my own way of navigating situations.
Looking forward to yoga.
