Day 76
I have returned from the psych workshop with tremendous inner peace. One thing I heard from another participant was this: during the workshop she realized that she would be ashamed to treat another human being the way she treats herself, especially with regard to the way she fed herself and thought about herself. It was an "aha" moment.

Also, I gained lots of insight into my thought processes and that lead to different points of view about my life right now - ideas and focus that have really set me free from some heavy baggage. Plus I hung out with some really cool people during the breaks and meals, who actually thought I was cool too so that was really relaxing and fun.

I am back to work tonight, spent a little time at home first. Housemate is a nice friend to come home to - her dog is so funny: I let the dog out and closed the door so she could run around for a few minutes - she turned right around and wanted to come back in, and inside the door she started wagging her tail very excitedly because she knew I would give her a treat for being outside! I had to laugh!

I ate ok this weekend - I'll weigh in tomorrow!

Those dogs are smart ones. Maddy across the hall used to do that too. lol So glad the workshop was interesting and that you learned lots about yourself. When we can relate things back to ourselves it is always a success. Also Abba you must remember..you are cool! Don't be surprised that people want to hang out with you or enjoy your company. All people are your husband. Just by reading your journals I can tell what a wonderful person you are and if I was closer I would be honored to hang out with you.

Hmm. Very interesting thought! I think if I heard someone else talking about herself like I talk about myself, I'd want to shake her and slap her and tell her to pull herself together! It is good to think of things like that. Glad you took time to do that for yourself. And I know my dogs have cheered me up many many times.

Just checking in and saying Hi. You seem to be in a good place and I'm happy that your room mate situation is working out well for you.
