As you can tell by the title of this blog, I am off work all this week. To be honest it couldn't have come at a better time. I'm having a difficult week I'm finding it really hard to have some get up and go about me. I don't write this to gain any pity or sympathy, I'm just being honest. I knew I was backsliding again at the back end of last week when I wasn't looking forward to my birthday, which was on Monday. Luckily, I have a wonderful partner who on Sunday surprised me with Disney birthday balloons ready for Monday. This was to get me excited and for him to see me smile.
I do love that boy!
Another lucky thing is that I have an amazing network of friends and family who made my birthday a really lovely day. I was spoilt by everybody and I love you all so much!
Also this week I have been contending with university deadlines and unreliable technology that decided it wanted to delete one of my assignments the day before it needed to be sent. Oh joy! That night I stayed up till the early hours of the morning re-doing the whole assignment, but I did it, the work was sent off and now all I need to do is focus on my exam prep for next week!
The strangest thing for me right now is that even though I feel utterly rubbish in myself, I really enjoy spending time with my friends. They manage to take my mind off everything that is rubbish and I can just escape from my own mind. Whether they're coming round for tea and cake, going to the pub for some din-dins or just hanging out together, they never fail to make me smile. I sometimes underestimate the power of friends and I am so thankful to have all of mine!
I am now making it my mission to not take my friendships for granted.
So as of tomorrow I'm putting my positive head back on. I had stopped doing my relaxation techniques at night thinking that it wasn't doing much good but now I'm not entirely sure that was the right thing to do.
So now lets go back to:
- Relaxation/breathing techniques
- Smile more
- Laugh - Laughter is the best medicine
I also want to say thank you to all of you lot reading this little blog of mine! It really means so much.
Over the weekend i'll be posting a few more blogs as yesterday I went to the zoo with Craig and tomorrow we are on a babysitting mission!
