Food sure is an attraction
Thursday, February 25, 2021

. Our tiny little yard is becoming a life source as everything is drawn to food. I am trying hard to fight depression by blogging to you and keeping my feelings under control to not react but take deep breaths, and reflect back to Leo the happy bird then write the next chapter. Yesterday because Leo was such a wonderful bird of talking out his feelings and not breaking anything Leo got to have one treat. My daughter said, mother, I haven’t broke anything and I talk about my feelings so can I have a treat? I then reinforced her good behavior and said how proud of her I am and 10 whole days without breaking something what would you want? She chose a McDonald’s shamrock shake and I got my large ice tea. Today it’s about how proud Leo feels when he does not break his nice things and gets to have special treats, and if he keeps not breaking things maybe he can get a special treat again. How happy that makes Leo feel.
