Life is pretty ok

[evaelisabeth]

I have more times now when I pause and think "life's pretty good right now" and smile. I've gotten better at not catastrophising and letting my anxiety over things I can't control run riot in my head. I can easily slip into a 20 min meditation. Still having trouble with sleep even though I don't have to rise so early anymore so that's a big thing on my list of things to tackle. My Mother keeps saying I need to get checked out for a CPAP but I'm resistant, should probably get over that. I'm looking to change GP's and that's going high on my list of things to talk with her about. Still not moving enough and snacking too much but I'm a work in progress. Money is tight but not desperate, once I have my credit card paid off and several projects taken care of in the house there will be more disposable income.

So overall I give this year a solid B (to my American friends, that's a great grade)

Oh, why are we humans so resistant to change that will help? Your comment about being resistant to getting checked out for a CPAP reminds me of my resistance to hearing aids "because I didn't want to be dependant on them the way I am my glasses". If only past-me had known how magical they are--that they stop others from mumbling, and make it possible for sound to travel through an open doorway or around corners...

I hope that once you do get checked out that the CPAP helps you at least half as much as it helped my mom--she had so much more energy after she started sleeping properly and breathing correctly all night long.

It's definitely on my list to address with the new Doctor, fingers crossed I get on their roster soon :-)
