What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

I feel well, though I can't stop thinking about last week when my brother put me down and humiliated me in front of his friend and then brought up past badness. I'm at work, and keeping busy, but it's all I can think of. I hate working out what I could have should have would have said 7 days after the fact!:mad:
 
I feel tired this morning... had to get up at 4 am to do the final adjustment to open the pool at 7 am but I've got an afternoon to rest some after I do the water samples.

I feel glad to be helpful to my spouse and that I still know a few tricks with pool chemistry that are off good use.

I feel surprised that the director (a former thorn in my side when I was full time there) actually want's to pay for me to recertify for my Pool Operator's certificate. Though I am allergic to the building, and pretty much just oversee the shocks, stabilization and break point and turbo shocks.

I feel glad that she called me "the chemistry queen" and it made me smile and was a compliment.

I was frustrated with my spouse's reactions to me and the lifeguard who is hard of hearing and was there to vacuum for us (being helpful beyond his regular schedule).

I think that I can put it behind me now that I have been able to talk with him more about why I was stressing.

I think that I can do the things necessary to get dressed up and go to dinner and a move (on a "date") with my husband.

I think that I will put some extra effort on self care and expectations so that I can focus on the present and be able to be calm and open to enjoying a special evening.
 
I feel a but numb and hurt after doing some EFT tapping over an old memory of physical abuse which brought up feelings of abandonment, disgust, fear, distress, upset, and disbelief.

It was intense, and I'm a bit freaked now...which is why I logged on here. Might do some diary work...? Oh, that's unsureness coming through there.
 
I feel like a full-body cast and a mask are hardening on me and soon I will no longer have any contact at all with the world outside of me. I cannot stop getting hurt and I can no longer bear getting hurt. There's just so much pain for so long that I'm beginning to lose interest in trying to see or do things around it.
 
I feel rewarded for getting the numbers right and doing something two other pool operators didn't know how to do.

I feel a sore throat for doing it in a place I'm allerigic to.

I feel a sense of self worth though. (At least I'm good for something)

I think I can do dinner and a movie with my partner and bear it out without the after effects.

I feel like I can recuse myself if I'm in a bad place afterward without affecting my partner. I got a solid boundary there and he acknowledges that it is neccesary for mutual benefit and minimal relationship backlash.

I think that it was a beautiful day and I'm okay. I'll be okay today.
 
I am feeling absolutely exhausted mentally and physically. I can barely move I am so tired. I do not have a choice now except to rest and re-energize. I wish I would learn to stop before I collapse!:tdown:
Thankfully my boys have no school for a week, so we can spend time together watching films, etc. No lunches, no school work, etc. That is a blessing at least.:)
 
KP,
I am really sorry things are so difficult for you right now. I wish I could help you. However, all I can do is let you know I am thinking of you, and wishing you lots of strength. I hope you feel better soon.
