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

Well I did end up coughing during the echo, but the tech was very nice about it.

Today is just a med check with my nurse practitioner. I have to get ready pretty soon to go. I'd rather just stay here. Had enough running around this week. Yet, I realize that is a pretty normal week for most people. Plus it did take care of some of my normal boredom. So it will get me out. I should be happy with that. Still working off my cold.

I went to the grocery store with my husband despite originally not wanting to go out. But I have to say, that not wanting to leave is always my first reaction to leaving the house for any reason. Even if the house was on fire, I would still probably have that feeling. I'm trying to get rid of it. It is a safety net. I have to expand out of my cocoon.

Today, at least after my nap, has been draggy and has me feeling negative. So I am trying to point out things that were good. Like I did shop today, online, and bought a cute, shabby chic, shower curtain and curtain hooks. I also bought myself a new pair of slippers. I should be beside myself with happiness over these purchases. What a foggy day in my head.

I showered and did a few things around the house. Of course my good intentions with the laundry flooded my basement a bit. Oops. Old house, old pipes, winter. Happens. Letting my husband rest since he caught my cold and he works hard.

I took the time to take care of myself. This is a difference and it is a positive one.

I exercised and wished I wouldn't have waited four days in between as it wouldn't have been so hard. I, then, took my son to get his letter jacket. It was worth getting out. We stopped for McDonald's for him and I wasn't even tempted. Thankfully I had a sandwich and soda before we left. Still it would have been so easy to get a fry and another soda. Thank you willpower.

So far so good. It is warm and sunny, I have done a few chores. I ate good for lunch and I am surviving ongoing drama around here. The eldest granddaughter is going to have banjo lessons and she will come home all happy and refreshed. I am having a good day.

So far, my day has been wonderful. I am so happy today and I do not need to take my anxiety medication at all. I wish every day could be like this.

I woke up terribly unmotivated. Instead I went ahead and exercised. Still have things I need to do around the house, but it's a start.

I bought myself 6 pairs of reading glasses. It was a special, you got 6 pairs for $19. They are wild and a bit funky, so perfect. Cheaper then the one pair I have on my face now. This way I can keep a pair at my bedside, purse, and where ever else I need. I think I will keep the leopard or the zebra at my beside. lol

My day has been great so far. All good news and things accomplished too.

I'm going to a movie and lunch with my sister. This is a good thing. It gets me out of the house that I have just been lounging in and sleeping. My husband is beginning to wonder if it is him I have been sleeping so much. No, just the depression wreaking havok. So today I will get out and enjoy myself. Won't be easy, but it will be done.
