Purge

You guys!  I'm so excited!  Granted, this doesn't take much anymore but I'm super proud of myself and I wanted to share.

I purged yesterday, I woke up with this sudden urge to just clean and get rid of stuff.  I took out 4 garbage bags and a box of just...well, canned goods that had expired, things I wasn't using anymore (or never used and they were expired), broken things, etc.  I started a bag for things I'm going to donate and I started a pile of things I'd like to try to sell. 

I slept GREAT on Wednesday night (thank you to my anxiety medication and a hot bath to help with the fibro pain) and woke up yesterday, ready to do some work.  It's been a LONG time since I've felt that way and it felt really good to just get things organized.

I didn't get to my spare bedroom which bums me out but I plan on doing that next weekend.

I even woke up this morning, proud of myself. 

I've started making some small changes in my life and I feel like it's helping. 

I have a tendency to have these spurts of happy or excited and then I fall back into the same pit of depression and anxiety.  I'm going to work really hard (again), hopeful that this won't happen again.  Or if it does, I won't stay there as long. 

I did break a glass yesterday that was a gift that made me pretty upset.  But, as I cleaned it up, I realized it could be replaced and I just tried to move on. 

I've also decided to forgo a second job.  I work 50 hours a week as it is.  I'm not sure I can do much more.  Maybe a few hours on a Saturday?  I don't know.  I'm still tossing it around but I'm leaning more towards no. 

Plus, I am attending a Stranger Things party this weekend!  I AM SO EXCITED!!!

I hope everyone has a great weekend. 

Thanks for reading.  Love you guys.
