Three positives of today
Another frequented thread on the old forums. 🙂
The idea is to look for three positive things about your day whether it's been good or bad.
I'll start it off.
1. I ate some Maltesers and they were very yummy!
2. I got some of my French assignment done. 😄
3. The new ReachOut forums. Am I the only one who was buzzing with excitement when they came on here? 😄
1. I had an okay sleep last night.
2. It was a much cooler day today than yesterday (warmest Easter I can remember).
3. I have so much support here on RO.
Yesterday:
1. Went out for dinner with a friend from high school
2. My new friend texted me to ask how my long weekend went 🙂
3. Finally got my work roster for the rest of the week.
Today
1. My best friend asked me to come to her place in the evening!
2. Treated myself to a new book (You Belong Here) and I love it already!
3. My aunty gave me some KitKat for Easter. 🙂
2. more cookies! (yum yum)
3. malteaser easter bunnies! I freaking love them 😄 😄
4. Spent some time outdoors
5. Pretty chill
2. Re-read my readings with the form they explain and found it so much easier to understand with a visual aid in front of me
3. Have had a quite and cruzy weekend 🙂
1. ate breakfast (maybe, don't remember for sure)
2. did the dishes in the morning
3. cuddled with the cat
4. started watching bondi vet (which is on netflix, woo)
5. played outside with the puppers
@T4ils I work in traffic control, its just the nature of the job and pretty standard. I just can't schedule anything in the week in stone 😞 basically an on call 24/7 style job. It's only temporary (I hope) until I can find another major constructing project to jump onto. Guess I'm just holding onto that thought
Hey @Blueeyes, glad to hear that you are enjoying your new job! Is there any reason why your work is so unpredictable? My roster used to come out a week before hand and I found that annoying so I couldn’t imagine how that makes you feel 😪 how have you been managing the late notice?
P.S if you want to talk about this a bit more, you are welcome to make a thread and tag me just so we don’t flood this thread and you can get better support 😌
@Nightruner23 I am enjoying it so far, however the unpredictability of when o will be working next is super stressful. The only form of roster of schedule I get is a text at 2pm the day before saying to be in the depo for a certain time. I never know who I'm working with, who I'm working for or where until I get there in the morning 😟😟
@Blueeyes I agree!! This is such an uplifting thread - a powerful exercise in deciding how we'd like to frame our days (as positive!)
I've never contributed before - but I think it would be good for me!
Three positives of today:
1. The weather! It feels like a perfect temperature today.
2. I remembered to bring my phone charger to work (go me)
3. I've planned to have a night in tonight which I'm super excited for.
Keep the positives coming everyone
2. I got washing done
3. I got a job application sent off
4. I went out to get my cats this afternoon and saw one across the road, when I got to him, he jumped up on his back legs and stood up, he nearly fell backwards before I grabbed him under his front paws 😄 it was funny
5. I got purring cuddles from my little black and white cat when feeling upset. It's like she knows ❤️
6. Haven't had too much foot pain today 🙂
1. I went to one day of uni.
2. Sorted out tutoring for the holidays (I get two weeks holiday from work 😛 hopefully I get some lego shifts though)
3. Got my hair cut, love it.
4. changed my bed sheets
5. organised stuff for later this year
6. cupcakes
7. rainy days
