It's all about me today!

I have this week allowed myself to get so worked up its getting my health down.I took a stand a couple of days ago.I'm gonna get out of the house more.I'm gonna do more for myself without all the guilt.I have been a doormat and a prisoner of my own guilt for way to long.I see its ok to treat yourself to good stuff in life sometimes.I guess i always thaught I was being selfish in having anytime or needs forfilled for myself but no more.We all have needs even me.I am going away for the weekend guilt free.I have so many of my new friends giving me encouragement which I've took to heart and appreciate so much.I will post next week about my trip and how it has helped or not.The main thing here is take care of your self if you don't who will?Thanks friends

Hi kisorheather, Good for you on taking care of you first. You are right, if you don't take care of yourself who else will. My sponsor always told me it is important to take some time just for me to renew, restore and refresh myself. I can't go on vacation right now but I find others ways to take time just for me. I hope you have loads of fun on your trip. I'll look forward to hearing from your about it on you return. ((((hugs))))

Hi kisorheather, Glad to hear you had a good time on your trip. Good for you on not letting your husband ruin it. We all need to take some time just to let go and have some fun. We can get so bogged down in our busy lives and feel like we just never have time anymore to do fun things. Sounds like this trip was just what you needed. Glad you enjoyed it. ((((hugs))))

Good Morning kisorheather, I know how it is to get away then come home and return to living life again.

I am doing ok today. I am starting this morning to clean some junk out of this house. I have been procrastinating on it for so long. This morning I am beginning to do something about it. I figured I can take one little thing at a time and deal with it so it doesn't feel so overwhelming. Every now and then I need to do this - give this house a thorough cleaning.

In sharing that it reminds me that I need to do that with myself sometimes. Give my inner house a thorough cleaning. This is something I learned in recovery. Keeping our inner house clean. I'll work on that some today also.

I hope your day gets better. Keep sharing. I know how much it helps me to talk with all of you here. ((((hugs))))
