Weekend wins and worries

 Hi there!

I was so hoping for a a good night's sleep, and also take the chance to sleep in this Saturday. None of it happened. One of my neighbour's got an annoying habit of singing late at night, loud and clear. My attempts to fall asleep were interrupted several times. I then woke up super early. Sigh!

Well, the sun is shining and I've got nothing else to complain about. 

Why is that such a big thing? "The sun is shining". Who cares about that if life is terrible at the time. An anxiety ridden person won't be helped by a well-meaning but stupid "at least the sun is shining", rather the opposite.

The sun is ALWAYS shining by the way.

Thankfully I'm not anxiety ridden. I'm quite alright. As long as I don't start thinking too much about problems, issues and challenges. Hahaha...

Will I enjoy the sun today? I'll be fine either way. 

If anyone is reading this, I wish you a great day!

Take care!

The next step

 Hello!

I'm free today, meaning I have a day off. But also, I feel free somehow. Listening to music and just existing, that's freedom. I mean, there are enough problems and challenges in life, but still no use in thinking about them all the time.

I've taken care of some overdue laundry, but it's done now. I'm planning on watching my favourite series, Sons of Anarchy in a bit. Life is good!

Monday I started a new "job". It's not an actual job, but a couple of steps before having a proper one. Last year I tried "work training" at two different places, but neither did last very long. The second one about two months, but it was really hard. I suffer from anxiety and it takes incredible amounts of energy to be amongst people at a work place. I enjoyed working very much as well, it wasn't all bad.

The new thing is much more relaxed and doesn't include proper tasks with a deadline. I'll tell you more about it later on.

I guess that's it for today.

Take care!

Maria
