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. 😊

My goal for today is 'play with the back of my car {ute+canopy}' and play overnight pack too 🙂
I also want to keep the dishes and some more wood in the back of my head 😄
But today I think I'll play 'I'm going camping' 😄 😄 😄

I giggled out loud reading that @Former-Member. I hope to take myself camping again one day. It's been a big part of my life until I was broken and on my own.
I woke up this morning with my kelpie lying fully on my chest and his wet, chewed toy squished against my face. He was in full play mode. It's so much like having a some days.
I think I've got it today. Most days I'm so stressed as to what to do with my day by now I'm going in circles and freaking out. I think 10 hours sleep unmedicated has helped immensely.
So it's going to be -
coffee outside and play ball with the dog
shower
meds
eat
put washing on
walk dog
go out shopping
cook tea for boys
anything I get done is a bonus
But the most important goal is to be aware of my mood and try to not let myself self destruct.
Hoping everyone else is doing ok 💜🤗💐🐕

Hi all, @Former-Member, @Former-Member 
Sounds like a fun way to spend some of your time today, Niqua. I can feel your excitement about the camping trip building. 
Teej, I like your plan! Even just making the list is a good thing, whether you get through it or not. I haven't been game to list things for myself to do here lately. My washing is way overdue and I'm running out of clean clothes, but there are still some there so it's not really urgent (luckily). The dishes are also on the sink waiting for my attention. They have been so patient. 
Today I followed Niqua's lead and focussed away from domestic duties. Low tide walk to friend's place that I'm checking in on while she's away. About 2km. Spent a couple of hours there including a couple of cuppas by myself at her familiar table. Thought with love about her. Watched and listened to the birds in her little garden (currawongs mainly), and filled the bird bath for them. Had a bit of a quiet think outside of my usual home space. Nothing special, just letting mind wander. Then jumped on the bus and came home. Made myself lunch (cheese and pesto toastie). Then started doodling around with new possibilities for videos. Nothing very promising there yet. And now here. A lowkey day but okay so far, even if I haven't been a good girl and got domestic things done.
