What a wonderful birthday surprise from Em’s grandma! I am so thankful for these today! They make the perfect finishing touch to my desk! I am going to look up at them and use them to help me destress from writing all these papers for my exams! Top top it off yesterday, after I got home from getting a well needed massage, I received a beautiful card in the mail from Em’s parents (@agnetamyrestam ) with a giftcard in it to one of my favorite stores! and later today Em is going to bake me a funfetti cake! What a great start to my birthday weekend! So thankful for all my wonderful family and friends who have helped me through this past year! Now to get back to work on my papers. 😃

Its laundry day for bedding. I take the pillowcase off and go to throw it in the wash and come back to this. #dogsofinstagram #dogsofinsta #spoileddogs

So on Friday I went on a walk with @biancasstudio and her beautiful little girl! We were going to go to a new little cafe that is dog friendly, so I took Moly along with me! The cafe was closed but we made it work! Her little girl is so sweet, and Moly was so happy! I think we walked almost 10km! I am really glad that the sun is shining again! Winter is brutal here... so any sign that it is almost over is a blessing! and any chance I get to spend with @biancasstudio and her little girl is always wonderful! Moly and I can’t wait to go walking with them again! ❤️

I almost NEVER have my nails painted, (let alone cut and shaped properly) but thanks to @simplynailogical who @emilymyrestam is addicted to I now get my nails done about once a week! Em picked out these colors and I am in love! The blue matches the sweater that I wear (which also has white on it!) I feel so spoiled! #nailart (at Lund Central Station)

What a glorious weekend! The sun has been shining and I have taken total advantage of that! Today I am at a small planner meetup for @malmoplanners (so far i’m the only one here) but i’m enjoying my time. This week has been glorious. Thanks to all the friends (@kawanasilas and @biancasstudio) and family (@emilymyrestam ) who made this week so great! Even with all the stress I managed to find the good in the end.

professionals who have researched ways to deal with various mental illnesses: if you practice these few mild activities every day, they could help your recovery, as shown by the patients we have surveyed

y’all on this site: what the fuck is this neurotypical blasphemy? REAL mentally ill people know that you're never going to get better and you're doomed to be miserable the rest of your life. anyways here's a post with "support mentally ill people who are jerks" against a pastel pink background

When you Lose your Motivation

A list to reflect on when you have lost motivation…

~Find a new *why* (what are you doing this for?)

~Look for social media support

~Ask for help

~Avoid deprivation

~Consider your pride

~Look back to understand the “fork in the road”

~Don’t look at the number on the scale

~Smaller increments (Yay you lost 0.2lbs!!) (small progress is progress)

~Listen to feedback

~Talk about it (but, choose your audience)

~Look at your before & after

~Find real life weight loss comparisons (bag of apples, bag of flour, box of cat litter, etc.) Hold up that product & be amazed at how much *weight* you REALLY lost
