A notebook (with a good pen)

Most welcome! If you need any help, just ask. I make my own rollers a lot so I can help with any question.

Exactly! I do love my fruit juices etc but my teeth would be dead in a month or so. With teas you don’t have that problem 😀

Tea! Any tea.

Door half open so the cats can walk back and forth, but not so much that it’s too light in the morning.

Wow, I had no idea! I was diagnosed with headaches due to wrong posture and wrong lens prescription as a child and I never had it checked afterwards, even though the headaches remained. I just did the exercises my physical therapist prescribed and had my lenses checked every year.

I just accepted the headaches as something I sometimes get and didn’t think it was anything worse, also because my younger brother has migraines and he has vision-like symptoms, I don’t. Figured that meant I didn’t have migraines.

I have all those things you mention. And no, had no ideas they can be painless! How weird is that! I see a lot of reading in my future and a talk with my doctor.

Thank you so much for your comment, it might help me get the right diagnosis for my life long headaches.

I make them myself! I buy the best peppermint essential oil I can find and I have some aromatherapy rollers on Amazon.

Then I add 5 to 10 drops of the oil to the bottle, top it off with almond oil or something like that and then put on the roller top. Put on the lid, and shake it and then remove the top. Roll it on your hand and check the scent, opening it up if the roller needs more and then I roll it on my forehead and temples when needed.

And I might have migraines then because I can’t stand light when the headaches strike.

I don’t get migraines but just pretty bad headaches and what helps me is staying in a dark room, putting an ice pack on my forehead and using a peppermint essential oil roller on my forehead and temples and then a muscle balm on my neck because often my neck muscles stiffen and that tends to make the headaches worse.

I hope your migraine lessens soon!

I find the climate change deniers way more tiring.

I’m so looking forward to this! You can tell from the trailer that the cast had so much fun!

My health. It's made me lose so many connections, and lately it's made me feel like I'm invisible. Not even those closest to me really know how to deal with me and me having to cancel things because my body says no.

I used a couple of full spectrum bulbs in my old west facing office and the lighting was perfect for my art. Have since then moved to another spot, need to set the bulbs up there too before winter. 😀

I once managed to trip over a 5 cm metal ledge that I only noticed when I kicked into it while walking into a parking garage.

I fell over, fell on a knee that was just healed after another less stupid fall and scraped both hands badly too when I tried to break my fall.

So stupid!

Oh and it was after a concert and there were a lot of people present just watching me get up, crying in pain.

So it was my most embarrassing one too.

My Brother HL 230 laser printer is so reliable. Had it for years and it never failed me.

Thank you so much!

There definitely is a difference. A gut feeling aka intuition comes without emotion. It just is like a knowing something for sure but not knowing why.

I trust my gut feelings implicitly. My emotions? Not so much. Emotions are always fleeting. There one minute, gone the next. Anxiety replays old fears time and time again.

When I think about or see rollercoasters for instance, I immediately am afraid. When I ask myself why, I remember instantly what I felt when I had an asthma attack in the middle of a rollercoaster ride. That fear replays as something new but isn’t.

I’ve read a lot about emotions and emotional wellbeing, I guess that’s why I’ve learned to tell the difference

Most welcome. Hope you check it out!

The latter for sure. I get email from two other accounts in my onmail. I’m not sure if they have imap themselves as I’ve never wanted to 😀

My excitement is maybe small, but I’m excited about the 5-ish hours of sleep I’ve just had, which is such a gift after weeks of pain waking me up all the time

When I look back on my life, I always regret things I did out of fear or anxiety or any other emotions.

Trusting my gut, however, always led to the best for me in the long run.

In your case, did you follow your gut when heading home?

Also, your gut feelings are maybe muddled by emotions about the breakup, which is logical.

So give yourself some time to weigh your options and let your family and friends help you as well?
