What Did You Do For You Today???

[Srain]

I asked for help.

I cut and colored my hair! I can barely move my arms or use my hands, but at least I feel a little better about myself. I am doing everything I can to fight the depression I am falling in to.

Today I had everything I needed to do all finished by noon.

Then I sat and watched the second of the Chronicles of Narnia, Prince Caspian, with my husband, whilst crocheting a head band/ ear warmer for my granddaughter. :)

Yesterday I went out twice!:tup: My son turns 13 soon, so yesterday we went and bought him a pair of Nike shoes. I couldn't figure out what to get him. So I am glad that is done! I also bought the rest of the things the boys needed for winter and some decorations for Christmas. It's the first time I have gone out for a couple of weeks. I feel very positive about getting exercise and being out in the world again!!!:):)

I came here and am staying here later than usual.

For some reason things got a bit prickly this morning with my husband so instead of allowing it to elevate I asked that "please not do this right now". :) Wow, I set a boundary! I just realized this. Huh, I'm not feeling well and we disagreed about how to deal with insect control (being in Florida it's a issue, believe me) so instead of continuing I bowed out pleasantly when I felt myself unable to go further.

I have booked at the hairdressers to have my hair coloured in a couple of weeks time. I usually do it at home, but our hairdresser does it so much better.

Put on a full face of slap n my best underwear just to do the food shopping in as i woke up feeling right dowdy..

 

[amethist]

Good for you wife of. :tup:

This morning I did more of the form for the government office, as I am doing it bit by bit so as not to get overloaded with it.

Put rest of the border on my kitchen walls, only been looking at it for almost a year. :rolleyes:

Then I went shopping and enjoyed the smell of the autumn leaves on my way back. Set me up for the rest of the day doing that.

I din't go to work! That may sound ridiculous but in the past I've gone when I shouldnt have done, using work to avoid my thoughts. Well my thoughts are mostly positive now & the ones that arent i send packing.

I started reducing my citalopram dose 10days ago & yesterday it caught up with me leaving me feeling washed out so I've taken today & tomorrow off, work will manage without me & if they dont its time they did!

I stood up for myself! Ok - I did it in a very roundabout way... but I think it worked!

I needed to tell Husband something (nothing earth shattering - it was about home furnishings!!!) but I knew that it was something that would escalate in to a row so I wrote it all down in a letter to him and sent him off to work with it and made him promise not to read it until mid morning with his cuppa and then to think about it during the afternoon.

It worked!!! Now we just have to wait and see if DFS will play ball. Well if they will send us two sofas that are a foot smaller than advertised and with loose arms then I think they owe us at least a little favour!!!

A couple of weeks ago I gave myself permission to make a date with a girlfriend.

Had a very nice couple of hours with her yesterday. Went out for lunch without any pressure to get back to hubby!!

I met with a friend after her CT scan but before my surgical consult. We were able to discuss and share our health delimmas and embrace being medical oddities and say things we can't say to our families or husbands. It was the best $7.00 lunch plus a tip I've spent in a long time and helped me through a difficult day.
