I'm starting this discussion as a place where we can set our goals daily, help motivate each other to do them and then check in with how we went. It's a place to celebrate when we achieve them or just sit with each other if we didnt and are feeling down about it. Hopefully with encouragement and support from each other we'll tick lots of boxes for our daily goals and feel good about it. Please join in. 😊

Hey, where is everyone? On holidays lol (I should talk)
I achieved a rest day todayafter overdoing it yesterday - too trailer load to op shop, bought back a great ensemble bed. Unloading it strained my heart so rather than become a pin cushion in A&E (only to be told its angina - go lose weight" (yeah right lol), i took my pills and rested. Slept a lot. Working on hand sewing projects, Hemming a quilt atm.

Hi all. Having trouble motivating myself to do anything around the flat lately, except make the bed. At least I'm doing that, though haven't even achieved that tiny thing so far today. I've been sleeping a lot lately, partly to process lots of stressful life stuff. And to give the various physical ailments that have also been popping up here and there with me a chance to heal. I am not at all confident of achieving anything I put on a list today, but these are the things that need doing:
No walks on the beach for me at the moment because I've strained my ankle somehow. With menopause and stress, I just find all these various parts of my body breaking down a bit in an ongoing way. Moan moan. We'll see if I get anything on the above list happening.
Hope the day is going better for others.

Thanks, @Faith-and-Hope. Still haven't managed anything so far today. May end up just being a recovery day. Sending hugs for the turbulence you are going through too. Especially hoping for you that there are oasis moments of painting happening.
