What was the best part of your day?

What's something that stands out for you today? It doesn't have to be huge, but I think it'd be nice if we could all take the time to appreciate something positive or something we enjoyed.

This sounds a little nerdy but I enjoyed playing a Dungeons and Dragons game online today, I have a really fun group.

Also I'm eating some really yummy muskmelon. It was advertised as cantaloupe but it is muskmelon... it's a fakealoupe!

What's going well in your day?

A good piece of chocolate is sometimes all you need! Love those Lindt truffles! I have a huge addiction to the Ferrero Rocher. I can't just have one! Haha

I usually love the off season because its so quiet. We live about 15-20 away from the beach normally and during the summer there is just way to many people to enjoy it.

Your Bbeach looks beautiful so calm!

I'm in a tourist area also. So I walk early morning to avoid the people.

September is the best time here. Probably the same for you? I love sunrise walks.

I had a nice morning with my mom and sister. We went away for 2 days and decided to take a boat tour. It was really relaxing and needed.

I haven't been on a ton of boats but I really loved it. The sound of the waves and the feel if the air were glorious!

Love this. What type of boat? What did you see?

stellina04 profile image
stellina04 in reply to Dolphin14

Kind if like a ferry boat? Lol I have no clue what it was honestly. Haha it was like a ferry but no cars.

We took a tour of the Navel Academy & The Chesapeake.

We came to Washington D.C for the Bridgerton Experience yesterday and then we decided to stay a night in Maryland my mom loves Annapolis and the water. We left our husband's and took a 2 ladies trip haha

There were a ton of sailboats out and a few navy ships in the distance.

Thank you! I stood in the front of the boat the entire time. The breeze and the view made the heat alittle more bearable. Lol 😂

I'm not really made for the heat, but it was very nice.

I do too, honestly any beautiful view I'll take it. I'm not a beach goer unless it's off season but my mom loves the ocean.

I had a really rough last 2 weeks I was really in my head with my anxiety still kind of am but we decided to go away for 2 days and just breathe. It's helpful and I'm super grateful to be able to run away for a bit 😊

Angels111 in reply to stellina04

I am glad your mini-trip helped.

stellina04 in reply to Angels111

It has been really needed. It's nice to get away for a bit, my anxiety has been so bad lately so the fresh air was much appreciated!

The best part of my day, yesterday in the uk, was going to my yoga class as I feel soo relaxed afterwards… and hugging my children 😊

Angels111 profile image
Angels111 in reply to Nad1971

Yoga can be helpful. Hugging one’s kids can melt a parent’s heart.

Nad1971 profile image
Nad1971 in reply to Angels111

Very true. I have not been practicing for very long, but I think it helps….😊

stellina04 in reply to Nad1971

I love yoga, I was going daily but I stopped for a bit because of the cost. I really miss it, I feel like it makes my day start off in a more positive way.

So glad you had such a nice moment with your kids and a relaxing time at yoga! ❤️

Dolphin14 in reply to stellina04

I yoga at home. Don't give up your practice. You tube has some great teachers

stellina04 in reply to Dolphin14

I feel like I follow thru better if I go to a place sadly. I would Luke to do it at home more often. I honestly need to get myself into a routine it would benefit my anxiety too I'm sure!

Dolphin14 profile image
Dolphin14 in reply to stellina04

True many people find it hard to stay disciplined at home. It is about routine and yes it's so good for anxiety

stellina04 profile image
stellina04 in reply to Dolphin14

I really struggle with follow thru. I just need to try harder.

EndUser13 profile image
EndUser13 in reply to stellina04

Anytime I struggle to follow through with anything, I force myself to do something tiny (a couple of dishes, vacuum a small area) and then go back to it. Small steps so I don't get overwhelmed. It's like cultivating a good habit, which is easier to keep up with than the pressing idea of "oh god I just HAVE to do allll this"

stellina04 profile image
stellina04 in reply to EndUser13

That's a good idea! My problem is my anxiety isn't constant so.. since I have health anxiety for me I'm only anxious when something happens like if I get sick or hurt. When I have nothing happening it's like I'm normal.

So for instance I started getting migraines in my early 20s so I had Luke a week of migraines and they sent me for an mri so I was sure I had a brain tumor. But the second I see proof that I don't I'm fine.

So when I'm fine I don't follow thru with a routine it's when I'm not dine that I'm like ok I need to try this and this... I know that part of anxiety is maintence tho. So I just struggle.

I really need to get into it more at home. There are so many I have no idea what to watch haha I just usually so what I learned in class

Dolphin14 profile image
Dolphin14

Agree. I've got my favorites and I venture off sometimes and find new ones

In the mornings they have yoga on the beach. I'm wondering if I would be brave enough to venture off and do that. It's in the full sun though. I'm not a fan of sitting in the sun. So maybe that's my excuse to stay in :)

Had a good morning-good mood, good attitude. Walked 10000+ steps, then decided to trip on a curb-thank goodness noone saw me. Hand busted up, arm scraped, and my right knee swelled to the size of a grapefruit. Happily it's down to a tennis ball. Feel like heck, but I'm dogsitting my little granddog this week-11 year old dachshund and just having her makes me smile :) So she's the highlight of my day :)

What did go well today was that, I have two specialists for epilepsy and NF3, and my GP, I have been f####d around by my local hospital, but found that these three had gone out of their way to help me, have been put on the list for a MRI scan thanks to them, I really appreciate that in my especially hard times at present!👍👍👍
