Trying to do Better Mood

Tuesday, July 15, 2008

Today has not been going well. Do not know if my hormones are acting up or what. They shouldnt be. They dont usually occur for another week or two. So the last few days I just feel in a rut. I know we all go through this. Being stuck at home and constantly having a limit to things. It is hard and can make us nutty and angry sometimes! I know it happens to me. Had planned on going outside in the garden today but no luck. Was in to foul of a mood and to tired. Tried going to sleep but that didnt work. So then I decided to just get up and take a shower and try to be positive even though it is the last thing I want to do right now. I just try to remind myself that it is either this or feeling emotionally crappy and crying all day. So am trying to be happy!!

Am going to steal a friends idea for today.

Am thankful for:

the sun is out...might go out and read later

my beautiful perfect kitty cats

my mom

being able to take showers!

My favorite tv shows are coming on this week!

I can read again

my psoriasis is actually going away everywhere!

I am getting pigment back into my skin because I am well enough to go outside this year

being different than kids my age!!! THANK GOD

having learned to appreciate the simple things in life

my gifts

peace and quite today! No tv for a few more hours am so sick of it!

my health...know that sound strange doesnt it! But I am a lot better than I used to be

I guess I could go on and on so I am thankful for that as well! I might do this more often!

Off I go to find things to cheer me up. Will check journals a little later as my eyes are bugging me.

Good ol' Jules huh! So how did you get outa that one with Rae?

Yes I used to be miserable, and then I decided I could be sick and miserable and feel worse, or I could be sick and feel more happy... it does help to change your thinking, and I reckon you do that very well, really do!
love you, jazzyx0x

Even when you're at your lowest ebb, you are still that feisty, brave young woman I admire.
'being different than kids my age' - ha ha, Rose would have to agree there. I'm glad I brought my kids up to love being 'different' and to celebrate their strangeness.
