It just keeps getting harder. I’m finding it hard to keep my head up, to keep faith or believe, to attract and affirm. Because I’ve been trying to turn my mind set around and do all the things.
Positive: texting sarcastic jokes to those in some of the trenches with me.

Baby steps forward when it seems any steps forward are baby sized feel hard to celebrate. I’m not alone in needing some big and consistent wins. So many of us did the things we were supposed to do.
Positive: an encouraging message from a friend who sees my efforts.

Was it supposed to be this hard? It’s difficult to release limiting beliefs when you don’t understand what better looks or feels like. It feels like I’m the only one buckling under the weight. How do I get to higher ground?
Positive: skorts and friends of skorts

Why can the arrogant demanding attitude still make me feel so wound up? Why can’t I blow it off, not react? It must be misery to behave like that. But I’m curdling inside. I want to regain myself.
Positive: One day. Soon. Breathe.

Talked to a neighbor who just opened up out of the blue. It’s been a rough few years. Full time employed people struggling. Family life not always what it seems.
Positive: Don’t bottle it all up. More people can relate than you know. The struggle bus is not empty.

They restructured our pay periods. Claim our annual amount didn’t change. But the new paychecks don’t equal the old monthly income. So on a monthly basis the ends don’t meet.
Positive: not sure. Savings is there to dip into but it’s supposed to be savings not spending.

Trying to start my day with positive self talk. But don’t want to gaslight myself. Heard yesterday that having faith is not the absence of feeling overwhelmed or breaking down. Those happen. Hearing that helps.
Positive: see above.

The grocery store stresses me out. The repetitiveness of the weekly shop. The stress of how much it all costs. I whisper to myself the whole time “it’s okay, you’re okay, you’ve got the money this week, don’t worry about next week.”
Positive: this week’s is done.

Well. I came in contact with a bat. No broken skin but getting the shots.

I’m tired. I’m sick of having to think about dinner, making dinner, what to buy, how to afford it. I’m tired of saying exactly what I need and having it ignored or acknowledged but not done.
Positive: enough hope of a different story to keep me from spiraling down. Most times.

Yesterday an old toxic pattern crossed my path again. I attempted to handle it differently but the sludge left behind after felt too much the same.
Positive: text venting to a friend and went outside and “wiped” it off after.

Marking good days and decent days is important for when it’s not one of those days. Because that’s when it’s hard to remember those days exist and will come again. Today was good. Decent. Whew. Marked.

Some things keep trying to pull me backwards or back into habits I am leaving behind. Trying not to let it affect my stress or anxiety or interrupt my new path and timeline.

A bit of return to my usual schedule. I feel like that alone made me feel more myself again. Trying not to inhale the stress.

I know I can only control myself - my decisions, actions, emotions. But why can’t they learn and grow, as well? Because it’s still up to me what actions get taken when others won’t also act.
Positive: morning walk with a friend.

Trying to make my brain stay positive. Trying to understand that money is energy and to be part of that positive energy flow. Trying not to freak out when I need to simply buy a new belt. Or charging cord. It’s okay. I’m okay.
Positive: encouragement from a friend.

Consciously trying to stay in the present. Beating back worry like it’s a tangible thing. Reminding myself to allow what’s also going well.
