Journalling about how sleep is imperative for my health at 11:36PM.

I miss boyyyyfeeee

[walkingteapot]

Don’t need to over complicate things today. It’s rainy outside, I’m just spending time with me, I have things to ponder. I will nap, I will watch a movie, I will journal, I will go to sleep.

[walkingteapot]

I need to paint.

I need to open my curtain.

I need to shower.

I need to go to sleep.

[walkingteapot]

New strategy: pretend I’m cracked as FUCK at everything, literally the best is gets, and then I will be. I am genuinely the GOAT.

things i’m proud of myself for that i’ve never given much thought:

- brushing my teeth morning and night

- flossing nearly every day

- taking care of my skin

- caring for the environment

- challenging my own biases

[walkingteapot]

went for a walk today! ate good food and got something challenging done.

sitting outside first thing every morning has been helping me out.

i need courage, strength, empathy, compassion, resilience, and persistence to get through the difficult things i need to do today.

i have to engage wise mind.

new name for the voice which tells me mean things: anna-marie.

you’re on thin ice anna-marie, this level of bullying is not on in the workplace. once you have something actually productive or useful to add, then i will start listening to you, but until then you’ve got a big red warning. pull your weight, anna-marie, i’m only hard on you because i believe in you and want to see you do great things!
