How's Your Day Been? Each Day is Different, So Make Your Mark Daily

The weather outside has contributed to my not wanting to go to the gym. It wasn't even a thought in my mine today. Like I need anymore excuses.

Later I'm going to my son's football game. Not a fan of the game but a fan of my son. Now I just have to keep my spirits up since I'm not good about leaving the house or being in crowds(and it is always crowded).

Went and had a massage. This is only the second time I have seen this person but she is so good! She asked me if I would be interested in having a foot wax which I was. My feet so enjoyed the process of dipping my feet in the hot wax, etc. She even told me that she felt heat over my right shoulder and that is where I do have a problem with.

I feel comfortable in sharing with her so am scheduled to see her again in 3 weeks.

I am trying not to feel like the little girl who dad would not show up to pick her up just because my dad did not respond to my request to attend my son's game. I will try to hold on to the self respect and good feeling I had earlier and today. I will not be that little girl.

Yesterday, at my son's game, I admitted to my sister that I belong to a forum. I told her it was for depression. I know I should be able to tell her it is for PTSD and what goes along with it but I just couldn't. I didn't want to be questioned or judged. Who knows what she thinks about the fact that I belong to a forum? That was enough for me to admit. I'm sorry if I let any of you down by not being straight with her.

Good for you Britt. The weather here has been horrible. We are getting the bad Santa Ana winds for two days. It took the umbrella off of my daughters picnic table and blew it across the yard.

I went food shopping and ran errands and paid my property taxes. They still have my husbands name on them so I sent them a death certificate with the check.

I have the girls here for the weekend. Have not stayed overnight at my house for about a month. I have had a lot of anxiety today.
But the day is peaceful and quiet. I imagine the girls will play video games later on. I even got the girls sushi for dinner today.

Why not be that little girl? You have a right to be disappointed and a little angry. This is just my opinion, but when you keep things inside, they end up coming out one way or another. You deserve better.

And you'll tell your sister about the forum when you're ready to. I doubt anyone here would think ill for that.

My husband has pleasantly made himself available to help me accomplish a small chunk of our work this morning, that work is partially done and behind us. I feel a little less overwhelmed, and more supported and appreciated.

This afternoon became peaceful and I had found a much needed nap later. I am thankful.

My day has been much easier and enjoyable than yesterday.

Personally, it sounds like you already did a very good job sharing with your sister what you have.

Afterwards and since you've done so well, I can't see any need in you feeling poorly with believing anything more or short of what your gut - Britt, tells you to do and when, regarding this choice of yours.

@goingonhope Thank you. My sister hasn't said anything. I think that is good.

Between feeling depressed with the current weather here (ie rainy and grey skies) and wanting to sleep, I find myslef, with filled with ideas, but no way to express, in constructive manner.
