3 Positive Things Part 3

Re: 3 Positive Things

Hi everyone!

1. One week smoke free and $50 in my pocket instead of the variety store owners! :lol:

2. My tongue is now pink - I cannot remember my tongue not being coated with tar and nicotine and whatever else a smoker's body deposits on it - yuk! :2thumbs:

3. The weather has been unbelievably beautiful this past week - lots of sunshine and a few rain storms and a strong breeze in the air every day rain or shine - it's just the best summer week weather-wise in recent memory! :love-it:

Re: 3 Positive Things

I'm a very negative person and this is hard but it may be helpful

1. I am thankful for my two beautiful healthy children.

2. My husband kissed me goodbuy when he left for work this morning and that is
our #1 arguments lately, that he is not affectionate, so there is hope, he is trying.

3. I am at work now and I am fortunate that I have a job where I have flexible hours and I don't have to work that hard.

Re: 3 Positive Things

1. Now that the pressure is on to pack for an overseas move, I am making lists and notes and actually getting most of the stuff on them finished! This is GOOD, very good!
2. I'm back on with my diet(since last night). Though I continued to lose weight over the past month, I temporarily quit recording my progress.
3. I'm eating the most amazingly colorful salad you could possibly imagine, and it's really delicious.

Re: 3 Positive Things

This is such a great idea! It is sometimes hard to remember to notice the positive things in life. So, here goes...

1. My husband made us a yummy dinner.
2. Someone gave me an adorable penguin cardboard cut-out for Christmas and it is hanging on my wall. It just makes me grin foolishly whenever I look at it.
3. For a little while today the prettiest, huge snowflakes were falling. They didn't stick (which makes it even better) but they looked so lovely gracefully drifting to the ground.

Re: 3 Positive Things

1. I apologized to my brother and sister for having got high tonight. Not as high as I have often been in the past but it causes me to talk compulsively and that can be hard on them. It's not my primary psych problem but it is something I'm given to and I like them to know that I see past my mental states, that I see them, and the impact of my mental states on them. I'm grateful that they know I care about them.

2. I continue for the most part not to eat compulsively now which - even if I weren't losing weight (more slowly now) - is such an enormously free place to be (that is, not being driven by compulsion). I shared a meal out with my sister and her husband. I observed that my sister's meal looked particularly nice. Normally that would trigger a strong need in me to eat such food, but no, it didn't today. Surprising to me still.

3. For all that I feel that I've curved inward enormously since first joining Psychlinks, I really am grateful for the level of kindness and openness and the *quality* of the sharing here

Re: 3 Positive Things

1. My washing is drying quickly out in the sunshine. :2thumbs:

2. I have had two straight nights of good sleep. Yay!

3. I am babysitting my 10 week old nephew this afternoon. I really hope I don't break him... mg:

 

[Jazzey]

Re: 3 Positive Things

1. I'm smiling at the idea of Meg's laundry drying out in the sunshine (ok, maybe a wee bit jealous - but, happy for Meg). (and the breaking the nephew made me laugh)

2. I made it to the gym today;

3. In the middle of making Portuguese Fish Soup...

Re: 3 Positive Things

1. I have my pets

2. I have my pets (yes - they score double points because they are so purrfect)

3. I don't have to eat Jazzey's Portuguese Fish Soup! :yuk:

Re: 3 Positive Things

:lol:

...No, I would never force you to eat my fish soup. :hug:

Re: 3 Positive Things

We've had such a wet spring that the fact that my washing is drying in the sun is quite exciting! It's supposed to be 34 degrees here tomorrow... finally, summer has arrived.

And my nephew is just so little! I've never looked after such a tiny baby on my own before. I'm sure it'll be fine - I can feed him, change his nappy, stop him crying, and put him to sleep so that covers pretty much most of the bases

My washing is drying quickly out in the sunshine.

Throughout a big chunk of North America, washing is freezing quickly out in whatever is swirling around out there, sunshine or not.

Re: 3 Positive Things

1. I started back on my novel and this time know I will not give up or tear it up into a million little pieces because I usually think it could never be good enough. It will however, be enough, for me anyway.

2. I had a day where my pain level was tolerable so it was pleasant to go out in the snow with MoJo, watch her play and eat it.

3. I felt good about just being me today, at peace, nice feeling.

0. Thankful to Jazzey as she finally agreed to be my own personal chef, she cooks French!

1. Thankful to have a roof over my head

2. Thankful for my family, even though they aren't there, they are still there (if that makes any sense)

3. Thankful to be able to take care of my brothers puppy so he can go propose to his girl, and thankful to have my old cat back.
