    I’m good, hunni, have just some work to do today (I know, on a SUNDAY, right?)
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Feeling better today!

    Had a lovely day Sunday. My big sister came down for the day. She has autism and it can always be unpredictable but she was really calm and we all enjoyed ourselves! Then I spent the day with my brother and his two little children and my family for his wife's 30th birthday on Monday which was lovely too!

    I've been super busy preparing for the fete! It's next Tuesday! I've since completed all my 'Inspiration Jars' and now I'm filling jars with corny Christmas jokes to put on the dinner table on Christmas Day! I've made bags of 'Reindeer Food' too which is bags of oats and gold glitter for children to sprinkle outside on Christmas Eve.

    I have a job interview next Monday working with the homeless charity I'm fundraising for on the Tuesday!! Really excited about that!

    I had an appointment today at the ED clinic with the dietician. Drum roll, it was actually positive! I respond much better to the medical and scientific approach. I was weighed and haven't gained anything more since I was discharged. Next week I will find out when I will receive CBT and CBTE (eating disorder CBT) I will see the dietician once every couple of weeks or so. It will be good to get some psychological support though!

    I'm complying with the nutrition without supervision. I've been taking responsibility for my own recovery and I'm proud of myself for this!

    How are you all doing?

    I’m so proud of you! And you sound so upbeat (I hope you really are )

    Thanks ladies!

    Yes, choosing to nourish myself unsupervised shows a real shift in me. I'm wanting to care for myself and move forward. I know restricting will only make me go backwards.

    I am feeling better, Paula, and I'm being really positive but whilst my mood has thankfully lifted again... I'm still up and down and experiencing a real persistent flatness in the old mood. But that's depression and I'm doing all I should be to beat it!

    So yes, I'm being positive!

    Hope all is well with you both xx

    It's good to see you putting self care at the front of everything. That is so impressive.

    Me? Well, I've been worse, but I' didn't sleep much last night and so today I am grumpy and I hurt my big toe on my right foot last night - don't ask what I did as I have no idea apart from "walked on it" and it's swollen and so sore I can't put it on the ground! Strange but true...

    Crash is being "den" trained for night time and when we have to go out. It's having mixed success as yesterday whilst we were out he managed to push his way out lol and last night he just managed to bark lots between 1 and 230 am, but we are persevering as we can't let his destruction continue! But he's still adorable!

    Today I shall be resting and helping Marc (well "supervising") trying to sort this blinking leak from the pond - I know where the leak is, it's just really difficult to fix, but we have a starting point which has to be a good thing right?

    Hope you have a good day love.
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    Hi Suzi!

    Hope you're feeling better tonight. I really struggle mood-wise when I don't get enough sleep so I hope you got some time to rest and be kind to you today.

    Oh dear! Sorry to hear about your toe! How is it feeling now?

    Did you have much success with fixing the leak?

    I had a nice day thanks. Went to Church and got chatting with a lot of lovely people there and then I went for coffee with my parents at a new place that overlooks the harbour. I spent the rest of my day crafting!

    I caught up with a friend this evening. (she's the only one I have locally.... I've posted about her before. She's a bit flaky...) My mood feels flat after meeting with her. I guess I see how different my life is to hers and I feel declared by that. Not that I desire what she has in her life that I don't, it's more of a sense of sadness at the thought of time lost and how things have turned out. I guess we're just in different places and live in different worlds. Still, it was nice to meet up and be social with someone. I don't have any anxiety about socialising and I don't know anyone so I shouldn't complain!

    I'm home alone this weekend as my parents are going on holiday. It will be a good test for me to take control of my recovery and moving forward. Feeling a bit bummed out tonight since the time with my friend but I'm determined to push myself out tomorrow to spend time with my little niece. I'll be glad I did when I get up and go out!

    Hope you've had a nice day xx
