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

Today I had to run out to get my meds. I also decided to get a coffee for myself, and a sub for my son. I did all of that without problems. I need to feel free to leave more often. My sister wanted me to come to her house yesterday and I couldn't bring myself to do so. I really need to process things.
 
Saw in the paper that a former co-worker had died. I had seen her on the 4th of July at the store and she had told me that her cancer had spread. I had no idea that I would see her name in the paper today so am grateful for that brief visit we had in July. I also have my memories of working with her and her family.

I am still trying to get things organized around the house which feels good. I did go to the store and found some marked down food at the deli which is a treat for me.
 
My day is going great so far. I did some random acts of kindness which made me feel so good. I got my teeth adjusted and they feel so much better. I ran some errands and surprised the girls with gifts.

Now I am going to take it easy for the rest of the day, mabe even take a nap later on.

It is so cloudy outside and so cozy inside. We are expecting flash flood warnings for this area.

So glad that I do not have to go out anymore today.

My spirits are lifted and I am going to do some more journaling.
 
Ran into the ex-husband of the neighbor lady that used to live next door to me. He is so glad that she has moved out of state where her son can look after her. He mentioned again that he should have left sooner than he did.

I wish he hadn't mentioned the possibility of her moving back after six months or so. I hope, for my sake, that doesn't happen and her house sales soon.
 
I've been keeping my mouth shut lately, when I'd usually speak up and let the cards fall where they may....and I don't know if that was a mistake or the right thing to do. Regardless, I regret the things I don't do a helluva lot more than the things I do, so I said my peace. Where it goes from here (probably nowhere, possibly good or bad) matters less than not acting in fear. Or staying silent in fear, rather.

Probably not the smart thing to do. I'm crap at keeping my head down, and staying silent is sure a damn good way of doing that. I'm just tired. I'm tired of trying to do the "right thing", no matter how wrong it feels, all the time and having it blow up in my face, anyway. If it's going to blow up in my face, at least it will be doing what I want to do.
 
I accomplished so many errands today. I was gone for a long time and my daughter began to worry about me. Have a ton of errands tomorrow as well. I feel good that I crossed everything off of my list today.
 
My day was a crazy mixture of everything.

I got up at six o'clock (thanks to time difference that's five o'clock of my usual time) and I went for a run alone again in the dark but awakening Bucharest. It was fascinating to see the sun rise and how many people were already on their way to work.

After that we paid a visit to the Parliament Palace of Rumania which is the second biggest administration building in the world after the Pentagon. :wideeyed: I never expected this...and I was really impressed - even if it's not in totally good shape (but that's the same for most of Romania). During the visit, my monthly issues started but I had some painkillers on me and they worked just fine.

After that we visited some other offical office of the police forces here and I was the one who was asked for all the group if to go to a super market or go back to the hotel. I was tired - and we went back! :dead:

It was an exhausting day - and I didn't learn much for the project I'm here but still interesting in many different ways.
 
I had a busy day taking the girls to school and to the store for them to stock up on some treats for themselves. They also got the first batch of Halloween candy. I crossed everything off of my list today so I feel very good about that. It is so pleasant outside today. I hope it lasts for a little while longer.
 
I didn't do what my therapy called for(shower every other day) and today was the day. Not sure how I feel about this. I don't do much so I really don't get all that dirty. That's a bummer more then anything. I'm learning to do more things, even if they are what I deem as little or insignificant(which I find myself doing a lot of). Today I ran out twice for my son. Why is it so much easier to do for another then it is for myself? I've got to find myself somewhere in there. I am in there, aren't I?!
