Well it makes a change from the Sunday Thoughts post. Same idea, just a different day. It’s been one of those weeks where I’ve just had to keep the head down and get on with things. So many things happening in one week, hopefully next week will be quieter.
To add to it all Rocket-dog has been under the weather, he’s an old lad now, we adopted him in 2010 and it was thought he was around 2 or 3 years old. He’s perked up a bit today so that’s good, it’s horrible seeing him miserable.
There were some lovely catch ups this week, it’s been nice to have the chats and I got to meet a new person too. There have also been a couple of moments that took me by surprise, but life can be like that, and it will make me feel differently about some collaborations in future.
This week has make me feel very grateful for just being me, and that’s a rare thing. I’m calm and collected, when other people might be stressing I’m the practical one, but I do find that things sometimes catch up with me after the event. It’s great to know that I can rely on myself, even if I doubted that for a few years.
One thing I’ve noticed looking back over 14 years of the blog is that people comment much more on the posts where I’ve written about depression and anxiety. Most of my posts don’t get any comments at all, and that’s OK. I know people are still reading the blog because the stats are still great.
I’m much more focused on the positive now. We all have bad days, but learning to cope with those days is the key. I found when I focused on the negative it would just make me feel worse. Onwards and upwards and looking forward to the blue skies, the good days, and conversations with good people.
I hope you are all keeping well and fingers crossed that it might actually stop raining!
