Two days in.......

Positivity first.

1. I woke up on time.

2. I got out of bed.

3. I finally checked my bank account.

4. It wasn't as bad as I feared.

5. My car is ready to be picked up.

6. The sun is shining.

7. I'm wearing my purple cardigan today which makes me smile.

8. I didn't order dominos last night.

9. My Christmas shopping is pretty much done.

10. I've made it to ten.

 

On to the rest of me then. I'm finding it difficult to get into the positivity way of thinking right now. I have several things I need to get my head around, a major one is that a simple thing like getting out of bed on time or making sure I have breakfast actually can make a large difference to my day. It's not so much that these things make or break the day it's that starting the day on the right foot makes a difference in all sorts of way. So getting out of bed, having clothes ready for myself, getting breakfast ready the night before – all help make the morning go a bit smoother and a bit easier, leading to lower stress levels later on in the day. Of course the next thing I need to do is to organise my food a bit better.

The porridge isn't working as well as it used to. At least, I'm left hungry at 9am and then don't want to eat at lunch time. I'm having 70g of porridge every morning and I'm still hungry a few hours later. That's not good. Not good at all. I need to get some protein in the mornings I think. Perhaps sausages? It really doesn't appeal, not at all, but neither do eggs or any of the other things people generally have at breakfast. I think I need to research 'breakfasts around the world' or something to get into the place where breakfast becomes more than a stopgap again. There's a good way to spend an afternoon in work............

 

I need to get to the chemist to get some more pills as well – I'm pretty much out and want to restock in plenty of time before Christmas. I will do that today maybe, after I pick up my car. Simple thing to do. I need to sort out what I'm doing at Christmas as well – get things sorted for Al and things. All well and good I suppose.

 

OK back to work. I feel really sleepy, but coffee isn't working – possibly fresh air might??
