Feeling sorry for my self...

Thursday, July 15, 2010

Right now I wish I could just turn my back on every thing. Not a feasible thing to do, to many responsibilities.

I am just going to work on getting what every I can done, and not sweating what I can't. One step at a time. I have been riding my bicycle around the neighborhood, I wanted to do it twice a day but once is kicking my butt.

I am working in 15 minute spurts to get things taken care of around the house. But I would love to just crawl back into bed and cover my head. Not going to happen I have to much to do. Unemployment has been applied for. 3 to 4 weeks with no pay... this is not going to be fun.

I am going to get out there and push my business, that will help carry us through until the unemployment comes in. I have a party this weekend. Hope it is a good one. Both cars are fixed, glad we got that done before the bad news. I am going to move farther out on where I travel to do the parties, that will help.

Well off to plug in the MP3 and tune out the world. I think I'll drag the ab lounge in and work on those for awhile. I have come across several exercise DVD's now if I can keep the dog from shedding I can use the floor. I found my fitness ball, I am wondering if it is the right size... but anything will do right now, right?

Not a very motivating day for me.

    I'm sure sorry for the tough times you are facing--I like your determination though. Getting one bike ride in is better than none and working your way up to a second one is the way to do things, building on what is possible today, makes us better tomorrow. That is how I got back to walking again after my surgery. I went from wheelchair to walking with a walker, one step int he pool at a time. We can both do this big job facing us.
Gentle hugs,
Sylvia

    A nice pitty party can feel very good. Reaching all the way down into the depths of despair and thinking all the negative thoughts you can until you just have to laugh at yourself because you know you're being overly dramatic (this is what I do). I get to the "nobody loves me everybody hates me" rant and I know it's so not true. But it feels good to go there, cry, hit a pillow something and then start to count your blessings. For example: you are breathing, you have a wonderful family, you're not checking in and out of a homeless shelter every night, you have food to eat, you have a bicycle, and you know the list. I encourage you to make the list of every positive thing you can think of because you really do have a lot to be thankful for in spite of the financial hardships that have come your way. Much love and hugs to you and your family.

  I'm sorry that life has thrown you some nasty curveballs. It is good that you are exercising - it is often as good as antidepressants. This will hopefully be a short period in your life, and healthy living is a lifetime effort, so don't beat yourself up for taking it easier on yourself in terms of exercise.
