Self Care 11/21ish

[cam]

Sorry for the delay.

What did you do this past week? Did you do anything to combat stress?

Any plans for this week?

Challenge: If you live in the US, do something to make the holiday easier, even a little. If you live elsewhere, apply the challenge to your week in general.

Ugh! A nasty sinus infection. So much pain. So little energy. I have taken it easy when possible. LO also seems to have something going on as there is more stimming and sensory seeking along with less impulse control and emotional regulation. All the more reason to take it easy when I can.

I plan to continue to take it easy when possible. I have a doctor appointment scheduled. Other plans are still up in the air.

DH & DS caught something, too. I'm trying so hard to not get it. Feel better soon, cam.

Last week was actually more stressful, but I got a lot of stuff over with and that was pretty stress relieving. I even skipped the Caring Santa event over the weekend so we could stay at home and relax.

Monday was my last clinical and I got to spend it in NICU so that was a pretty awesome start to the week. I had a test today. Getting stuff together for my licensure tomorrow. Then I'm spending the next four days doing nothing at all.

Feel better cam ,

I got a couple of nice walks in this week. One of two of them was interrupted by parental foolishness, but mostly good. I am in so much better shape now than I was in the spring when I started to push myself. I got caught up on my scouting publicity- I wrote up and sent 8 new Eagle Scouts, 3 Scouting for Food events and an Adopt-A-Highway clean up, entered a Do-Gooder contest for the district and got the district FB page re-energized.

The week ahead?

I have passed the baton for Thanksgiving to my niece. I just have to bring wine- we'll do Beaujolais Nouveau and a Village tasting, along with some Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. I also have a novelty beer to bring along.

Busy with medical appointments this week- rheumo for mother today, then a fPET for dad Monday and Mohs surgery for mother on Wednesday.

I hope all that are sick feel better soon.

Last week: DH and I managed to exercise twice yesterday.

Dieting continues.

I was not able to combat stress. It has been more stressful this past week which carried on to this week. I could explain in another post.

This week: DH and I have not exercised once this week.

I have taken today off from work today to relax and help care for DS because there is no school and no daycare. DH is working tonight so he is going to take a nap. DS is on Thanksgiving holiday all this week. I am debating on making pumpkin bread with DS today or Saturday.

Thanksgiving, it will be DH, DS and I. I like the holidays when it is the 3 of us because I get to make my own traditions for us.

Friday, DS and I will put up the tree and decorate for the holidays.

Saturday, I am not sure if the ABA technician is coming. DS is going to write his letter to Santa and we will have to drive to the R2D2 mailbox.
