What has been your highlight today, no matter how big or small? Come share 🫶

@GezzaP Ah sorry for some reason I thought you liked cooking!!
I know you like the garden though 😊🪻🪴

Sorry to hear about the company that installed your roller shutters 😌. I hope you can make headway with them 🤞

It all depends on my mood @Chasingsunsets . If I’m hypomanic and have lots of energy the garden and the cooking get more attention. Other times it’s a bit of a chore. Basically I’m lazy. Getting off to read for a little while.

Oh fair @GezzaP, I feel the same re mood, if I am motivated lots gets done then other times nothing gets done 😜. Enjoy your reading 😊

@Chasingsunsets I did some puzzles instead couldn’t focus to read. Will try again in a little while.

@ENKELI @Chasingsunsets

Thanks for replying! I'm glad you got a smile from my support button! I love Animal 😁

Hellooo! @Chasingsunsets

How are you, lovely? 🫶

Aw, thank you! What is your area of work at the moment? I realised we haven't discussed it!

It sounds like having your own place would be so healing for you, so I really hope you are able to work towards this - I think if your intention is there, you can definitely achieve it. Maybe we can help by encouraging you and reminding you that you can absolutely manifest your dream place!! 🤩

I get that, it can be a vulnerable process, can't it? What happens when you redirect to how things feel/your alignment?

Oh no!! How is it feeling now??

Hmm, I wonder what could make managing all your tasks feel even 1% easier right now? I know what it's like when things build up (that was me this past month!). So, looking at small ways to make it easier helps so much.

Oh yes, please do the mind map when you're ready - no rush!

No, that's so fine, I apologise for my delays too. The past few weekends I have honestly just been working and doing my assessment haha but I will let you know when I do something fun... I made a 2026 intention list today, went to a gentle pilates class, and treated myself to brunch. What about you? ✨

@heartathome oh me too! When I did my first year of sound engineering we had a guy in the class who was a drummer and he had a sticker of Animal on his bass kick drum, as well as a little Animal figurine on the top of the drum. Every time I see Animal I picture this drummer, bashing away like Animal!

@Chasingsunsets @GezzaP @Judi9877 @REDLINEZ750 my highlight today is that I made an appointment to see my dentist, booked my car in for a service and did a 45 minute round trip to pick up prescriptions and get them filled at the dentist, all before midday. I was even awake when my alarm went off at 8.30 which for me is a little miracle!

I hope y'all are having a lovely Tuesday and the weather is nice. It's 35 here in the 'Vegas and I am so grateful that my new HRT patches are preventing the hot flushes. Finally!!

Take care

hugs E xoxo

Good afternoon @Judi9877,

Goodness, it sounds like you are managing a lot right now. Taking care of another person, as well as ourselves, is always a challenge. But your self-care activities sound really wonderful and nervous system-nourishing. 🥰

Oh that sounds lovely! What do you like/appreciate about your peer worker so much? And what will you do together?

I am glad that being here helps you to connect and shift your focus away from your daily stressors. We are always here, so never any rush to respond. 🫶

Oh hey there @AuntGlow! Has to be a first that I think we have been on around the same time that I’ve noticed Haha.

I am ok, thanks for asking 😊, how are you going? Sounds like you have had some busy weeks! Has it slowed for you yet?

Oh yeah I haven’t mentioned on the forum yet what I do 😬, sorry to be boring! 😌

You sound so organised 👏!! Here I am clinging to Nov 2025 🤣 and you’re already planning for 2026, that’s so awesome!

Thanks for the reminder re house one day 😊, I think the intention is there. Just tricky as I guess you have to be able to afford it too 🤣. Not only that I am extremely cautious and don’t really trust people so funny to surround yourself with real estate agents 🤣 🤭 which have a general reputation lol. It’s a cat and mouse game and I am so not interested in that. I feel like I have done the ground work though and have stayed in contact with the ones I like which is good but still remain wary. I’m not good with things I don’t know or taking risks or when things can go out of my control - constantly move to fear, so I’d say this has been the main barrier together with finance.

Yep heel is better thanks! Not sure what happened there but all good now 😀. Just one of the things I have to work on atm is weight, lost way too much and not trying it’s the autoimmune stuff, hard when low mood gets in the way the dominos start falling fast and hard, so the toastie the other day was a big win for me to wake up feeling like something 😊.
It is a dominos game, its then just a race to put the ‘safety gaps’ so there isn’t too many dominos that fall. It’s challenging also past history of an ednos and I guess most people have a mindset of loose not gain, so that complete opposite mindset of gain, is super challenging and not sure how comfortable I am with the gain idea entirely where old mindsets come in however I know it needs to happen, so this space with be interesting.
I count 10 ever changing factors at the moment that can affect my mental health, so that’s challenging but was also interesting to think about. This actually came from your notice post actually! So thanks 😀.

Sometimes I wonder if I notice too much. Soon as my equilibrium has changed even slight I know, I feel it. Would be good to be oblivious sometimes 😆😅.

I have a list, in my notes so I can tick them off which is good, I like ticking stuff off haha. I just don’t know how I have just got so busy all of a sudden lol. Where did all these things come from? Did I just wake up ?? Been asleep for a while? No idea. lol. Today even though I wanted to be productive I’ve just had a rest day. I am hoping by doing this these coming days might be better.

I am not sure what else I could do, any ideas? I try to reprioritise my list as it changes often so I am doing what’s needed first and also try to limit getting distracted by who knows what haha.
I love what you mentioned though re “1% easier” reminds me of the phrase “1% better every day” LSKD sports wear is big on this phrase 😀 and yep I do have a tee with the quote haha

Hope your assignment is coming along, gentle pilates sounds good, I also love brunch!! Hope it hit the spot 😋

Me, not much actually. Just busy working, likely I work too much. But I did go for a beach walk last night with Indi. It was sooo nice 🙏😊

Whats on for the rest of your week? Here is some pics from last night 😊💫

I love your highlights @ENKELI, your day sounds so productive, I love these days!!!

Sounds like your day is a hot one!! Good to hear your patches are working so you aren’t feeling extra heat lol! 🔥

I am glad it was a good day for you!! I off for a walk with indi soon 😀🐶. So lovely to hear from you 🙏
