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

Things are changing in me for the better. I've felt rather calm and satisfied with life/myself throughout the day. Haven't had a day like that in 8-10 months. I even told my eldest son to F himself after he criticized me three times and told me something he thinks I should do. But I did in a calm and kind way, with a warm smile on my face which made him laugh :- )
 
I felt a sense of small victory after speaking to my new boss about him ripping me off some money, and he actually acknowledged it and agreed to pay me the rest tomorrow, AND appeared to listen when I put up boundaries about him touching me in a flirtatious way, and expressed that it made me feel very uncomfortable. He said it wouldn't happen again. It felt really good to stand up to him and not allow him to interrupt me while I was speaking, I felt self-respect fill me. I feel proud of myself for the way I handled him and the situation.
 
I feel annoyed at being misunderstood and accused of being judgemental on a thread here. I feel hurt when people twist my words to make me look bad, and then tell me I'm the one being judgy. I feel confused and tired and it's time for bed. I also feel sad still that my cat is gone, and having spoken to a friend about the experience just before, feel a little raw.
 
Kinda :wideeyed: and :facepalm:. It feels very silly and delayed, but I just realized how many unhelpful negative associations I have made with aspects of my environment. I'm feeling both "duh!" and relieved, as that means I am a step closer to learning how to change them. Geez Ninja.... :ninja:
 
I'm grief stricken today. I don't want to go into work, but I need the money. I haven't had much sleep so I am feeling really cranky and sore in my lower back. My inner voice is telling me to not go to work and I want to call him and cancel. I'm feeling extremely sad about losing my brothers, about losing my family and losing the only other being that I had as family, my cat. I feel all alone in the world and I need to just cry and cry today.
