What Have You Accomplished Lately?

[EveHarrington]

Being productive! Woohoo!

 

[420kitty]

Getting back in touch with my inituition (spiritual side). Also, becoming less frustrated at work.

 

[Justmehere]

Survival.

Now, for something a little better than survival alone.

Managed to make a good choice:
a second ago I was starting to spiral. Hadn't eaten, parts acting out, flashbacky stuff surfacing... The whole 9 yards.
I knew I needed to eat. ASAP. The day before yesterday a similar situation saw me not eating but self-harming.
Today, though: not going there. A responsible choice. Now. Eat.
So I did.
Spiralling is now under control.
I seemingly am capable of learning stuff.

Gave a lecture in a seminar.
The topic? Social stigma. :D
140 people in the audience, boy was I nervous.
But it went well. Several people came to thank me and tell me I was a great lecturer.
Feelin' good. :tup:

I did several (small) things today. Having some trouble getting on top of my housework, so this leaves me with some hope. :-)

I turned a straw hat, green spray paint, green duct tape, fake fern leaves, and hot glue into a pretty amazing carrot top hat to compliment the carrot costume I ordered to help me more creatively share how beneficial eating more plants has been in my life. The hat that initially came with it was rather defective and would have had to been totally taken apart, reconfigured, reinforced, and sewn back together. I'm not patient enough for sewing, so I had to come up with a plan B. B for BOOM! Whoomp, there it is! lol What a relief to have it done.

Taxes, bills, being sick and brooding*.

*I am going to count that as an accomplishment because notbrooding alternatives were nasty.
Also bitching to educated & useful, within possibilities, people about it. Downsides, still massively colliding schedules and someone should get them a teleporter already.

... also being a big baby so SSDD.

I've been going walking every day to attempt to get more exercise. It's been kind of difficult since I was having some really bad edema and had some fluid and crap in my lungs for awhile which made it hard to breathe. At first I couldn't get very far, but the other day I made it all the way down the marsh trail then hiked up to the high trail. I don't normally go up there even when I'm feeling better because it's a really long steep climb. I made it all the way to the top and only had to take a couple of really short breaks on the way. And I made it back down again without killing myself. I know down is supposed to be easier, but when the ground is slick and muddy and you absolutely refuse to accept that cowboy boots are not hiking shoes then it's actually kind of a bitch.

And now I'm trying to pull myself out of the dark anti-social pit I've been in the last few days. I don't think it's working.

Reading fiction again, and it feels good! I’m a super logical, clinical person. I rarely watch television or movies. I would rather listen to music, draw, and read non-fiction.

I had a novel kick going for a while, when my kids were babies—it felt good and important to read novels by good authors—no pot boilers.

Been in a bed (yes, bed!) rut for months now, and read some good non-fiction stuff, but when I read fiction... it gets the empathy flowing, and I feel more connected to humans, I feel adult.

My goal now is to read woman authors, to get their point of view. And I like realistic fiction, versus fantasy. I’m reading a collection of short stories by Bobbie Ann Mason—the book is called Shiloh.

Took a bath. On my birthday. In the tub that it took me three years to re-tile the surrounding walls, just finished this weekend. During those three years I also got a teacher’s credential, started teaching full time, recovered my childhood abuse memories, and went no-contact with my dad. Happy birthday to me.
