What Are Your Goals For 2011

Hey BloomInWinter, it's always after 11:00 a.m. if you think about it.;) :)

Today we took the first step of our walks. :)

OK so we had to go out to buy cat food and some fresh bread, but instead of making do with our local supermarket, we walked to the next village through the park instead. Had to get a taxi back, but I could go with that, as the walk there was what we both needed.

He got a bit anxious in the supermarket, so I just slowed down and reminded him to drop his shoulders, slow it all down but keep going. Success no rushing to get out, just kept with me and even grabbed some caramel shortcake for him self. :rolleyes:

Hubby is tired now, but had lunch when we got back and sat chatting for a while until he could not keep his eyes open any longer.

Time is on our side, the next few months will see the changes in him and the seasons.

I want to get my life back on track in a positive fashion. Maybe these pills the doc gave me will help! ;)
I want to get more active outdoors and with my friends.

To testify against my ex and get him a longer sentence.

Hi BIW, let us know when you'll have to testify, many members will be thinking of you, praying for you, rooting for you ... I always burn a candle for the person. ((((HUGS))))

 

[Froggie]

Begin to adapt to this condition and redefine my life. Just doing an awful lot of ego letting go. Find the courage to start a trauma diary.

Thank you so much! I sure will be needing this forum at that time. I have no idea when this will happen...many, many legal things need to happen first. I can't decide if it would be better to learn to live in the mystery or have a set date to obsess over. :P

One of my goals is to go dancing again, well if I can remember how at this point! Oh wait, that's what lessons are for! ;)

To not be so hard on myself, and if I really have to let go of my boyfriend, to eventually lessen the pain. If it is for the best, I know it would hurt us both, but . . things are not working out with us trying the very best, I have to let us be separate rather than hang onto something that does not work. :( (To think that we almost got married . . I am just sorry and feel some guilt, I know it is a two-way street).

My big goal for 2011 is to keep myself in recovery, to do this i know i must keep my thoughts positive, not worry about things i cant change & to stop isolating myself. I also have to find a way to attend my daughters wedding knowing that her father, my abuser, will be there too.
I'd also like to learn to drive, at 54 I know it's going to be a challenge but i'm hoping it will stop me feeling so isolated from my family. To make new friends who will accept me for who i am.
I'm also going to take Amethists advice & go for a walk today.

Here goes nothing. I decided this morning that I need to try to walk the dogs even if it is for only one block a day, I can build it up from there. I can survive one block really I can. I need to lose weight and most important is to take ownership of my health. Must try to take care of me even though I don't quit know how to do that.

BIW I too fire my T every week in my brain and hope that the new clinic will bring me new tools to walk a kinder path.

I just wimped out of going for a walk with the dogs and family:(. Had a lovely family day yesterday and feel exhausted and drained, needed time to recharge my batteries.
As a certain Miss O'Hara would say - Tomorrow is another day
