This is avery good idea.
Negative self-talk is usually worse than we think and it really affects us. I was once tought to fill out a logbook like you do on a ship. I believe I will be doing that to.
I´m on the road again, this time with two of my nieces, 14 and 12. We are going to my cousin´s house in the South of France and friend of mine is there with her three kids. We´ll be camping and watching music festivals and we intend to listen to a good blues in these good old hellholes while the kids hang out. The problem with my older niece is that she has discovered boys and reacts to them like wildfire... a problem I know from my younger days all too well!
I will be tolerant this week and I will check Aurore´s language as well. It´s the most negative talk I´ve heard. Everything is "boring", "awful", "too terrible" etc.
Good luck with your move, Juls. I will think about you. I have moved about 20-30 times myself... and survived it. So will you.
