    I didn't weigh myself.
    Big deal and I'm feeling very on edge not doing it today but it needs to stop!

    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    My first ever 12+ hour shift (7am-7:30pm). Although my feet is in deep pain and a heat rash on my hand (because there’s no ventilation and it’s nearly hot at my work area) once I finished work everytime, it’s definitely worth the sacrifice.

    I did an 8 hour shift for the first time in about a year 
    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    Managed in my mask longer today, was really anxious but managed.
    I'm getting better with it.
    It helped that the shop wasn't insanely busy

    I've fallen out of touch with some of my friends since the COVID outbreak. Rather than worrying myself about it, I decided to message them to say I don't have much social space right now but I hope they're okay and I do think about them. Felt quite liberating, and I'm really happy I decided to do that and not just leave myself (and maybe them) worrying about it. :)
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
