What Have You Accomplished Lately?

[Deleted member 12723]

I am practicing not stressing about the move. The stress was driving me crazy so I took a day off and just refused to stress and I refused to journal and just ate and watched movies and had a pajama day.

Since then I have been doing so much better.

I got all my plants planted. Just flowers. I'll do veggies later this month.

I've started at the gym and been going regular for about 6 weeks now - and am enjoying it which is surprising me.

And getting myself back here in acknowledgement that I'm not coping so well.

@Meadowsweet : Congratulations. That's great news. :hug: Keep on with the good work and enjoy it as much as you can. :tup:

I tidied up and cleaned my cellar. Almost suffocated from all the dust...:hungover:

I just picked up the phone and called my sister. No one answered so I did leave a message if she was up to it, to call me.

I had this sudden urge to do it even though my hands were shaking at the thought of even calling her number.

My sister and I haven't talked to one another since 2009. She didn't even call me to tell me when our mother died, so lots of water over and under the dam so to speak.

I don't know if she'll call me back or not but at least I took a step in facing my fear of her. I do believe I was supposed to do as her name is still on my Will.

Maybe she would like to tell me the latest about her kids, she could be a grandmother by now or she might just decide not to have any contact with me.

@Let It Be : That was very brave of you! You did great. You can be proud of you. ...sending you encouraging hugs for the time period until your sister will react. :hug::hug:

@Anrish ~ How comforting to come here and to read what you wrote. I'm still in a state of shock that I did this so thanks for your words of support and hugs.

Can't say I have any expectations to hear from her based on our history growing up and throughout the years, but I can at least tell myself that....I did it!!

 

[Anrish]

@Let It Be : Even if she doesn't react, you collected a lot of courage to take this step and you can be proud of you. So, no one can blame you that you didn't try it - you did and you did well. :hug:

 

[Britt.f7]

What I will accomplish in a little bit is getting my vegetable garden planted.

@Anrish ~ :hug:

Just wanted to give you some :hug: for what you said.

Meant a lot to me.

 

[Britt.f7]

I made it, not only did I go shopping for vegetable plants, I planted them. All except a few, because the bin is not ready. Yippee. My energy held out.

@Britt.f7 : Congratulations! I wish you all the best and much joy with your plants. I don't have green fingers myself but I cheer for you! :D:hug:
