Are you comfortable standing next to them? Do they seem nice? Are they polite to the cashier? .....just to watch how other people do things like grocery shopping and interacting with store staff....and see what your impressions are. :) :hug:

♥♥♥ Massive amounts of love for everyone. :grouphug:

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this Venus :hug: I am still not sure what she expects me to do. She emphasised that I should listen to my feelings in response to their behaviour. Not just people in stores but also how my room mate's behaviour makes me feel when she's cooking and I am in the kitchen. I just don't know how to do this.
I was outside, went to the parcel shop and to the supermarket and there were tons of people but no one's behaviour made me feel a certain way. I felt the exact same all the time. I could observe that some seemed in a rush and a man was irritated and spoke to the guy in the parcel shop in an unfriendly way. So I can tell a little bit what mood someone is in. But I can't make a connection to my feelings. Not unless I see myself threatened for example.
Maybe I'm trying it the wrong way. I will have to ask her how to do it next week.

Much love to you too, and to everyone else! <3

Congratulations!

I’m a little late but thank you Leigh for the delicious salad yesterday!

I am frazzled. Tired and overwhelmed. It was a morning filled with tears and then a lot of deep cleaning which is what I needed to unwind a bit.

School starts this week, Greek School starts this week and I go out of town for the weekend. Add four nights of a closing shift to the mix and I am spent.
Can’t wait until Thursday when I can finally breathe again. Both boys will be in school and I will have three hours of peace to collect my thoughts.

Love you guys. Here for 24 and committed to 24 hours of abstinence from compulsive overeating too. Day 2 for me.

Tell your loved ones that you love them. Every day. Hold them close and give them hugs. Every day. Spend time with them. Do special things together. Now. Today. Don’t wait till later, until it’s more convenient, until you have more time. Do it now.
Live, laugh, love.
Right now. Because you don’t know when they’ll be gone ❤️ :hug:

I still can’t believe my beautiful dear Mumma’s gone. 2 weeks now. Sadly we’re preparing now for my Dad’s funeral too. I can’t believe he went so closely after Mum, a week apart. They weren’t together anymore but were still friends. Now they’re together again. Oh the irony of it all. RIP my dear Mum and Dad. Love you always ❤️❤️❤️
I won’t drink today. 24 hours please

Love to you all
❤️ :hug:
