Weekend

Workmate came & finished the swing.  I have a functioning swing!!
Husband made lush dinner & we had wine during the week!  (A rare treat) I have tomorrow off for housewifing so no need for an early night.

A few friends from work are up for the social, there's enough of us to have quite a laugh.
Husband has picked us a fun show to watch & it's lead to interesting conversations.
I have plenty enough to do to keep me entertained

Simple things

Was talking to workmate at lunch about our plans for tonight, which was good because I had the times wrong! Thankfully we got that sorted, & I turned up early enough  for a parking space, & to go back to the car for my mat once we paid.  Friend & I managed to get spaces next to each other.  I think I'm getting better at it, braver anyway - trying the more advanced options.

Noticed my fitbit was at 25% & charged it whilst sitting still. & remembered to buy new straps.

Actually won the dino hunt challenge!  I was well impressed.

weekend part 2

so many things to be thankful for.  I've been remembering them through the day (& have forgotten them again, but I like that the habit is ingrained now so when something good happens I automatically think of here).
The allergies cleared up once I got home, so am feeling much better.  Got a half day & husband was here when I got back!  Time with husband, & finally got some washing done.

Thankful I have the kind of job (& kind of boss!) where I can just decide to take the morning off.  There's a boots at the end of the road (open til 5.30) so I got calamine cream for my heat rash.  Thankful the runny nose & sore eyes are over.

I've finally remembered to phone my Grandad at a time when it's reasonable to phone him!  So off  I go to do that now...

weekend

I caught the trains problem free,
discovered a new park as I was walking from the station which delayed me long enough for mate to come & collect me.
Very thankful for the lift to & from the celebrations on Saturday, & that there was fruit & I enjoyed the dinner.
Home ok, bunnies good.
Enjoyed good food & company

Rationalised

I am pleased with myself.  I am calming down, I know & implement the strategies (& it's not just colouring in).  I have worked to alleviate my insecurity at work & can park those thoughts over the weekend.
I've checked I can log into my favourite sites with the tablets & that's coming with me.  I've also got time to charge it ;-)

Dee breaths, I've got this.

People

I have been messaging a friend with snippets of good & remembered to post here.
One of my friends took me for a cuppa & a chat which turned into a bite to eat.  All enjoyable, especially since husband's away & I probably wouldn't've been inspired to eat otherwise.
Neighbour is minding the bunnies for me & I've shown her what to do & we had a quick catch up.
Husband arrived safely & enjoyed his extra legroom on the flight

I still get excited about things.  I am finally on top of all the tasks on my list at work, & am still inspired by husband's idea.  I also have plenty to show my boss that I have loads of work to do.

My brother's coming to visit & is planning a treat day out for us.
Mate is giving me a lift on Saturday & has put effort into my visit.

Escape

I escaped at lunchtime with a friends.
Friends are good, escape is good.  Lots of good conversation today, & I enjoyed my day.  Glad to catch up with friends, glad to cheer up a friend.  Glad to have cheer to share.

Big hugs with husband, & he remembered the shopping I wanted.  Managed to find a couple of things for a present I should've taken care of earlier.
Friend was really early & got us tickets to Pilates, happy for the new class she's introduced me to.

Happy to have a home to come home too, & husband's here 😍
