You mean you have a manuscript for a book? Wow, i'll keep my fingers crossed for you :) Hey nothing goes better than a good book and peanut butter cookies (with kisses).

My day was calm and that is all that matters today.

Take Care Friends,
Misty

I know this is supposed to be about today, but I wanted to cheat and include something from yesterday! I helped my mom with her grocery shopping, drove her car so she could take a pain pill and dropped her off at the door so she could get directly into riding cart. I helped her pull stuff off shelves so she could stay seated then loaded her groceries and picked her up at the door, drove her to her home and unloaded her groceries for her. She was so grateful for this little help I give her she not only bought me some groceries (much needed is money is super tight right now) but invited me over for home cooked pot pie and strawberry shortcake for dessert tonight. I had a disturbing dream again, but somehow didn't spoil my day. Feeling good from helping my mom yesterday and getting some good groceries to boot carried into today. Then wonderful dinner and have enough leftovers she gave me for midnight snack. I have missed the garbage man the last few weeks, as the alarm has failed to wake me at 6:00 am (medicine knocks me out sometimes) to get garbage out, and feeling good right now and slept a lot last night so thinking I might even stay up all night so can get garbage out, and bake my cookies I still haven't baked and maybe, just maybe, work a bit on my novel. :) or clean. or something. Then I can catch a few winks tomorrow morning. Hard thing is sometimes something small can send me in tailspin, but trying to hold on to little positivity when I can get it (rare, but happens!)...

((((((((((((((( Shatteredhopes )))))))))))))))))) Its so good that you have great day! I am so happy for you

Today something happened, i lost my students schools fees, and it was over 2 thousand ringgit something, i am not sure how i am going to replace that money, i may accidentally throw it away when i clean my apartment the other day, it gives me so much nervous and i had panic attack for the first time in several months and i didnt go to school either, i may get nervous breakdown.

But positive things is that i have someone who told me everything will be okay, its good that when you are in deep shit, theres somebody telling you that it will all going to be okay, and i try to be positive too and brush the negative thoughts away, it will go away and i will be able to find a way to solve this. and i know i can do it, i hate the word give up and therefore, i will not give up, i will not give up and i will not give up!

((((((((((((((((( everyone ))))))))))))))))))) good day

love

Today i received a package or a box to be exact from a friend, a very good friend from the United States :) it makes me happy and it sure makes my day :). What makes me happy is not receiving the box alone, it also how i appreciate her thoughts and i really value her friendship :). It touches my heart when i read her letter, and i feel like saying to her 'silly girl! of course i am happy when i receive the package that you send me!!' it doesnt matter whats inside it, what important is her thoughts and thats something that i value so much :)

Lol!!! ohhhhh she makes my day today :) thank you for that :)

(((My Friends)))

I've missed a few days but, oh well :)

We put up a bird feeder in our backyard last week and yesterday while sitting on my bench in the early morning hours I spotted a new little bird I had never seen before. It was a beautiful, almost irridescent green with a golden breast. I just love all animals and could spend many hours watching nature and forgetting.

Today...well I'm here. Made an effort to read a chapter of the "Feeling Good" book. That would be considered a positive move, right?

Hope everyone's day is one more day towards better things,
Misty

(((((friends))))))

we hung a bird feeder last week and when i get up in the early morning around dawn i love watching the birds. today there was one i have never seen. it was almost an irredescent blue, maybe a finch?

anyway, i love animals and wildlife. it puts me in a different frame of mind watching them. the harmony and simplicity they exist on.

Today I was able to enjoy some peanut butter which I have rarely been able to do with this eating disorder. It was a comfort food for me as a child and I felt that same comfort wash over me as I ate it again. Such a ridiculous thing, I know, but a step in the right direction where my e/d is concerned.

(((((((((Mich))))))))) that is wonderful! Peanut butter is such a good food too, I know I was told when my blood sugar was low to eat peanut butter crackers, to get both the carbs/sugars and protein...so proud of you :)

I confess to a latent addiction to peanut butter! Particularly, peanut butter on brown toast. Although, I can never decide if I prefer crunch or smooth, so I end up alternating between the two......
One of my co-workers went to the local supermarket at lunch time, and bought some cakes for the people in our office, which was very nice of him we all thought. ( I blush to admit that I had two rasperry jam doughnuts! ) It was quiet in work so I was able to leave an hour early, so as to miss the traffic on the roads. And I've started re-reading one of my favourite comics, Planetary by Warren Ellis.
Overall I'm just making the most of actually not feeling too depressed or anxious today.
Glad to see everybody is hanging in there, and taking care of themselves.
