I Deserve...

I deserve not to have to wait for a service man that was suppose to already be here. Especially since he didn't call to say he would be late! UGH

Britt, if it is any consolation: my daddy was a plumber. He didn't ever call folks to say he'd be late, because there was no way to know how long his first job of the day would take, nor was even his first job's time predictable, since he may have been up late the night before finishing off a tough job that had turned out to be more time consuming than expected. I remember him saying things like, I'll TRY to be there this afternoon, but I cannot guarentee that, or I can't be sure of that now, since I don't know how long this job will take, etc. I hope this may put things into a more possible and positive perspective for you.

I deserve compassion from myself.

If they told me this I would have understood. But I got up early, pretty sure my appointment was one of the first if not the first(my appt. was scheduled between 8-9a.m.). He finally called me after the time he was suppose to be there by. It did take him about 2 hours to do the work here. Maybe he was more thorough since he knew he was late. He fixed a problem I knew we must have had, despite what the help desk had been telling me.

All's good now. I did get a nap. Thank you Sheila for the insight. :)

I'm glad it all worked out, Britt.

I derserve to feel better. I keep on saying that. But it does not happen.

To be happy, to get and give love.

I deserve to have a way forward. A way to manage my life.

I derserve to feel better.

Try going out for a walk every day early in the day. Be sure to take DEEP breaths and stay out there for at least a half hour (dress warmly!).

You know, saying I "deserve" something seems wrong on some level. But, I would like to say I deserve not to have stomache pain for the last 4 days, though today it is starting earlier in the day.

I deserve a life.

I deserve to not sleep my days away. Unfortunately it is my illness that decides otherwise!
