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

I have to take my son to his friends house later. In a little while actually. Trying to keep myself up and alert to be able to do so. Don't like to let my children down. I just want to be a normal mom, at least once in awhile.

It has been an okay day. I was getting really stressy but someone pointed out my distorted thinking and it helped to see things and settle down.

I went out to a free art class.

I worked on some more photo scanning. Trying not to let my emotions get away from me while doing this. So many memories. Good ones, for the most part, but they bring in the bad.

My day has been a very lazy and quiet one. No drama, no stress or worrying. I am slowly embracing my new freedoms.

I am managing to get some stuff done. So that is good. Saw doctor. Got scripts.

I need to get my medicine from my doctor, but I really don't want to put the effort towards it. Bummer. Well, I will call and get things started. I need this med to stay awake. I think it is funny that I have a sleeping illness, and I have depression. When one is acting up the other is silent. Either way I sleep way too much.

Bit frustrated with myself for packing at the last minute. Pleased that I avoided going into the SI.

I had a very good and normal, average day without any drama or bad things of any kind happening. I am so enjoying my freedom from being a caregiver for my husband twenty four seven. I still miss him as he used to be three years ago, but I am really enjoying my freedom and peace of mind nowadays.

Today I woke up not sleepy. After yesterday, that is a blessing. Yesterday was a sleep day. Meaning I slept the day into the night away. Today I do not feel that. It's my illness, not my depression, I keep stressing this because I want my mind to get it. It is okay. This is, now, part of who I am. I don't have to like it, but I also don't need to fight with it. There is enough negative without that. Plus I have understanding people in my life who get it, or even if they don't get it(neither do I), accept it and are okay with it. They don't think less of me. That is something I need to remind myself.

My day has been wonderful. I feel like I am rising like the phoenix that rose out of its own ashes of despair. I never thought that I would feel so good again. I am rejoining the land of the living without any toxic people in my life anymore. I do not have anymore drama from anyone in my life anymore. I am surrounded by a very great family. I feel so lucky to be alive right now. All of the years on the journey of recovery and therapy and breaking the cycles of abuse have payed off big time.

I'm going to an art museum today. That is big for me, getting out of the house. I'm trying not to think too much about it because I will start to get anxious(more anxious). I know I will be fine once I am there. It's getting there that I am worried about.

It has been a very quiet and peaceful day today.
