I am doing alright. I did not sleep good,due to the heat,but finally I went to sleep. I went to my mother's for awhile and then I came home and did some cleaning. NO SI so far and that is great. I am going to relax and do positive things for myself. My boy-friend will be over later on and we are going out for dinner,not sure where yet. I am feeling pretty good,besides my wrist is sore. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I have been using my coping skills,but it is hard when I can not write very good,cause of my wrist. Besides that I am doing ok. Be back on later. taking care of myself. :bcatsmile:
I am in a dark place like a turtle afraid to deal with the pain that I do not want to feel,but eventually I will slowly face my pain,like the turtle when he comes out of his shell.

To find yourself,think of yourself first.

I am doing alright. I relaxed and watched t.v.,with my boy-friend. We ordered in from Pizza Hut,cause it was too hot to go outside. We had a great time. He just left to go home and get some sleep,and I will be doing the samething soon. NO SI tonight and that is great. I am feeling pretty good today,and I had a great evening. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I have been using my coping skills and it has helped me alot today. I will be back on tomorrow sometime.taking care of myself. :bcatsmile:

I am doing alright. I had a good day so far,my boy-friend and I went to visit a friend and now we are watching t.v.. After he leaves I will be going to bed,cause I am getting tired. NO SI tonight and that is great. I am feeling pretty good,just wish my wrist was feeling better. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I have not been able to write cause of my wrist,but I have been doing other positive things to help me cope,which is a good thing. I have cleaning to do tomorrow and then I have to do my medications,cause my nurse is on vacation,I do not mind. I will be just fine. Be back on sometime tomorrow. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:

I am doing everything that I am suppose to do,like putting the ice on it and not writing in my journal,and taking the medication the doctor told me to take,when I called and told them that I do not think the medication is working,they called me back later and told me the doctor said that it would take awhile to heal and to continue to take the medications, I just feel frustrated that alll. I am going to lay down and rest till my boy-friend gets here. NO SI so far and that is great. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be just fine. Be back on later :bcatsmile:
