What is Something Good You Did Today?

[jods]

Good luck veiled.

At this rate Anthony we might have to start calling you bob the builder!

Today our son started his 4 half days a week at kindy & has been doing well with his toilet training so we surprised him today when he came home & bought him a talking grill toy that he has been asking for.
The smile, hugs & kisses we got from him were well & truly worth it!

He he he he he.... Yer jodee.... I could take that name at present. When we changed the laundry system over to my front loader and dryer, an Asko system that stacks, we removed nics dryer which was hung up high on the wall.... so she had a tube through the roof for the dryer exhaust which my dryer doesn't need as its a condensor dryer, and all the moisture is released through a pipe into the drain, not into the air itself. That hole I had to patch and rebuild, then the laundry had some other old screw holes hidden away under blinds, so I pulled all them down, patched the old drill holes, ended up painting the entire laundry and put it all back to together.

Our bedroom... well, the TV and removing the old tv from the cupboard, and I moved the powerpoint and arerial point from the side of our robe to the top for the plasma, so then made more work to patch up holes. Did all that, ended up just painting the entire inside of our robe. Fixed some old drill holes once again hidden behind the curtain rods... painted all that.

Fixed a hole in the young fellas wardrobe, ended up painting that. Door handles to replace is on the list. Working on the garage at present... kids playing cricket in it did some damage, so redoing all that and painting. Lots of work to do... all the little things that happen to houses over the years, all getting fixed.

It wasn't today, but yesterday (I seem to always be a day behind lately!). I baked. I've always enjoyed cooking and baking. I will cook, even if it's the bare minimum, pretty much no matter how I feel. But it came to me this morning that the only time I bake is when I'm happy. I baked two different kinds of bread yesterday.

I gave me such a lift to not only be happy, but to realize that I am. Damn, it took a while to get here, but the journey has definately been worth it.

Well done wildfire, really well done. Good to see your now being more proactive in your recovery. You have the power to heal you, your therapist can only work with what information you provide them to work with. Well done.

Mowed the lawn, pruned the shrubs and flowers, kissed my husband, went out with my husband tonight while kids were having fun out with grandparents, held my son, listened patiently to my F-I-L long-winded speaks, set some boundaries, carried my big girl 7'yr. old daughter upstairs when asked, and this morning arranged to have children participate in Arts & Crafts children's project that I felt too weak and naseaus to take them to but made possible for them to go to. Oh' ya'......yeah' (LOL) had a follow-up mammogram appt......next one in 6 mo.

To show up at any follow-up appt. for me, without rescheduling or indefinately postponing is good, and a bit miraculous.

Talk about a full day, good for you!

I went out to eat today and only 2 anxiety attacks. I got in a car med free for the first time in years. I sat in the grass and watched my kids roll and tumble down a hill.

Great stuff hope, glad to see more getting out and about, doing things, being proactive to keep the mind healthy. Nothing like some work to do that.
