Daily positives

[Jaquaia]

Sometimes when we're struggling we need to look at things on a smaller scale. This is something my counsellor got me to do to show me that things aren't always as bad as they seem. It makes the Friday fab 5's easier too ;)

So it's just a case of naming 3 positives. It doesn't matter how small they are, they just have to be positive.

So for me today that would be;

- have managed the basics
- even showered!
- sausage casserole for tea!

[Suzi]

Well done love!

[Paula]

Love this!

- good day at the in laws
- £400 Armagnac (wow it was good!)
- croissants :)

[Mira]

Good idea, I will try to post these regularly as well.

- Feeling better then I could have imagined today. In no small part thanks to the lovely people here at dwd.
- Got out of bed.
- Managed to do a tiny bit of housework.

- lunch out with my parents
- 6 month amazon prime free trial! Being a student has its perks ;)
- being able to put a smile on J's face

Love this!

£400 Armagnac is that for real or a typo!?

That’s for real ;) (my in laws have a lot of money - Si is always telling me I married up (rofl))
