RisingUp Check-In 3/15
Things went down with family yesterday, to the point that I realized I don't really have a family anymore. It is really quite sad, but eventually true colors are shown and the origin of my afflictions is now very clear. I am upset, but at the same time I feel FREE for the first time maybe ever. All the fear of authority figures my whole life, well I now realize where it all began.
So, more important than ever now to work, to support myself. That's okay, because with this new revelation maybe the avoidance won't be such an issue. I suddenly feel "unparalyzed"... been in a state of emotional paralysis for probably the last 2 years, and esp. the last 6 months. I feel that changing. And I am happy about that. Praise God, my true family.
hypatia's check-in
dispapearing under vast pile of paperwork and phone calls, and numerous people complaining I haven't done things. And although I know I procrastinate it's also because there isn't enough physical time in the week to do everything I'm supposed to do.

Friday
Thanks Mole for the great starter.
I have been unwell and out of action past few weeks since out of hospital. Today is the first day out of bed in a while and I have to do some quick catch up to do on the basic stuff and get organised as we have a special green long weekend here!

Show up (done), exer, plan
Thanks for starter Mole. Exactly my "quest" being aware what I am thinking, thoughts are the language of the mind, and if nothing changes, nothing changes.
"Today, I will
not wait for others to see and care; I will take responsibility for
being aware of my pain and problems, and caring about myself."
From The Language of Letting Go by Melody Beattie
Grateful for a place to ck in and connect.

I woke at approximately 11:30am. Not my goal time. Therefore my "punishment" is that I don't get to watch television or streaming video today at home. This is better than waking up at 3pm though.
