It's a mindset . . .


I have been majorly stressed lately. I have a lot on my plate right now and everything is not working together. I have tried to get myself together, but it hasn't worked too successfully. Yesterday I decided that I would try to let things go and stop worrying. That is difficult with my Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, but it can be done (along with some extra medication)! I made sure that I organized a few things last night that were weighing on my mind and I got a good night's sleep. Today I decided to wear some new shoes that I bought just for fun. I decided that if I had a differnet outlook, maybe I would feel differently. . .

Here's to an uneventful day!

We call those "Dorthy shoes" even if they are not totally red.

It is good to give yourself permission to take some time off. It is also good to accept who you are. So you like things organized? Can you even imagine how things would be with your active family if someone didn't keep things organized? Not so good I would imagine. Many things can be neither good or bad, but just be. The trick is to figure out how to activate the moderation button of life, and then hold it steady. I am still working to figure out this control in many areas of my life.
