Goal For The Day

Over did it the past few days - not sure exactly where but at least I see it. I had a job interview yesterday which meant I got almost no sleep - then this morning I was supposed to meet someone and I was so tired that I slept through my phone ringing - which is unheard of. A pin dropping wakes me up. I think I need to take it easy today and just do basic things like feed myself and drink water and maybe take a nice hot shower.
 
Thank you to the person who started this discussion, tracking what goals I have each day has helped me a lot with dealing with avoidance of things I don't want to deal with. On days that I have a lot going on mentally I do a lot physically.

This site offers so much therapy. Have been doing well just doing simple things today and being mindful of what I am feeling instead of trying to avoid it - which is what I am learning from my Behavioral Therapist.
 
I went for 2 Dips in the Ocean. I also went to a Still Life Drawing Class. My goal tonight is to go to the art exhibition opening. I also want to clean one cupboard.
 
On days that I have a lot going on mentally I do a lot physically.

Thank you for saying that. You hit the nail on the head, and I never realized that was what I do as well. Today, I put a spoon (for the spoon theory) in front of my monitor. It's to remind me to be careful how much I do today. Your quote hit the spoon and reminded me to follow through on that and not try to do too much today.

My goal today is to contact those whom I haven't seen in a while and let them know I'm thinking of them.
 
My goal is to get through the day without feeling down. I need to see my med nurse practioner, than start cleaning my house for my son's birthday celebration on Sunday. Having over a few people who wouldn't care if I did get to cleaning it, or will be a bit upset if I did it all, so I'll try not to get my undies in a bundle over it.

Yesterday my goal was to put a 30x30 print on to canvas. Did it. It is a bright picture of what appears to be water color flowers. It lights up my kitchen beautifully and makes me smile! Saved over $100 on this project, from buying it already done. Their's would probably have looked a little better but my attempt turned out just fine for me. :)
