Today I feel good
I feel good today. I've felt good most days over this past week actually. Might be to do with the sun shining. I think working with my anxiety counsellor is helping too, subconsciously at times. In our last session he taught my a technique of stopping the bad thoughts before they manifest into a panic attack. And that's what I've been doing. I may have this little seed of a panic form, but before it gets worse it's goes - I'll think of something different, talk to someone, sing, look at something online or just go find my dog and hug him. Little things like that help me. I haven't had a panic attack this week which is amazing.
Last friday I took my dogs Oscar and Alfie round Whitlingham broad with my Mum&Dad. Aflie hates being int he car, we put him in Oscar's bed/cage so he couldn't run about in the car, and he seems to prefer being in there than on our laps. He whines alot, but on the way home he's really good, not wimpers at all. Oscar is great in the car, he'll sit in the footwell or on my lap and just peep about out the window! It was scorching hot, so lovely. Osc and Alf went swimming in the lake, and chased some swans! Took 2 hours to walk around the lake, we had an ice cream after.
Today I went swimming with my Mum for the first time in about 10 years and dear LORD I am unfit. I done 10 lengths and was so out of puff after each one. I really enjoyed it though.
Now listening to some Florence and the machine, such glorious joyful songs, must get her album. I also love Fyfe Dangerfield's version of She's Always a Woman, really beautiful. The lyrics are so lovely, wish someone would write a song like that about me.
My friend went to Disney Land this weekend for her hen party holiday. I'm tres jealous, I was invited though but my stupid nerves held me back. Looking forward to hearing about it!
Been busy making soaps, had some orders and lots of interest so it's going well :D
