Happy evening, folks! Busy day. Bit of anxiety but otherwise feeling pretty good about it. Got a lot of writing done so that's always good news. I wrapped up another chapter in this new draft that ... I think it's good but I need to give it a few days to settle in my mind first.
TWO THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR (SPECIFIC)
1. I am grateful for my therapist. We had a session today and we used the time to take stock of how far I've come. I realized in real-time that one of the goals we'd established in one of my very first sessions years ago had been achieved and I never noticed. Hell yeah!
2. I am grateful for timers on my phone. Hear me out! I used to spend between four and six hours every day just idly scrolling. I've gotten my average daily phone time down to just two hours. Sure it helps that I spent most of my time on a platform actively being destroyed daily but still.
ONE THING THAT WENT WELL DURING THE DAY
Let's see, I mentioned the therapy and the writing. Here's a thing I haven't mentioned yet, I've been reading "Stamped From the Beginning" and I actually managed to read a few chapters today without walking away incandescent with rage. It is not an easy read.
ONE ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL ACTION ITEM FOR THE DAY
I have a meeting tomorrow with the career office at my alma mater. Just planning on covering some of the things my advocate threw my way and coming up with a game plan. I used her information to apply to one job already but I figure it can't hurt my chances, right?
WHATEVER IS ON MY MIND
Not a lot on my mind at this hour. It feels nice at the very least to have enough equilibrium to not be in constant crisis, y'know? Not sure what my earlier blogs looked but I vaguely feel like I haven't had as many angsty issues to process at the end of my blogs.
