Self-care goals

 1) Smoking down.  Well underway

2) Drinking down... more or less ok underway?

3) Flossing up. Well underway

4) Standing still and saying "Dear God whose name I do now know, thank you for my life" when I get stressed? Well underway.

I mean, My drinking and smoking is low enough that I'm working on small changes, honestly, but also hard enough to make the small changes that I don't think they're as small as it looks?

Brain fun

 

I had what I think is a panic attack in the middle of the night a couple of nights ago.

Now, I know that panic attacks are physiological, and I suspect this one was caused by coffee late at night, but it was a helluva thing.

I found myself freaking out about literally everything possible, and then, when I woke, circulating back to the same content again.  

And I found a motto that is gonna be key over the next little while:

BEING ALIVE IN STRESSFUL TIMES IS A PRIVILEGE. NOW GO DO SOMETHING WITH IT.

The only thing that listens to me without interrupting is my tinnitus 

A prayer of thanks

I realized today that my Peanuts are exactly the kids I wanted to raise. 

One is barefoot in her suit, reading graphic novels.

The other is in a pirate tricorn making doll furniture. 

I'll take it.

today's bad take

...

SINGING IS NOT A SYMPTOM OF ADHD

Spring is here

 And pop! my energy level is up again

This is also supported by being fully staffed at work and also having to take something like 40 vacation days in the last 3 months of this fiscal year.

My hope is to start to clean out my domestic projects a bit

Sleeping better

 

I'm sleeping better!

But I'm still tired, but that's good!

I have like one deep thought today, and that is that you need to be one sentence grateful every day
