Hi, everyone! I had a pretty good day yesterday. I did my exercise routine, & I got some shopping done, & a nice walk. I have sleeping problems but did a little better last night. I haven't found out yet when Nancy Drew is on. I have to check the station's schedule. I don't have a computer, so I can't watch previous episodes. I'm using a flip cell phone with a brouzer to do this. By the way, I really like this thread. I hope all of you are doing well today. I'm wishing you all the best! :grouphug: :)

this is what I found Waking Light
"airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT"
but I watch at 8pm my time.

As for my check-in, well, it wasn't a very eventful day. Woke up early, but took a nap. Caught the end of The Bold and the Beautiful. Cooked lunch and ate. Then spent the rest of the day visiting with kitties and watching Lucifer on Netflix. Didn't really have dinner plans (what I cooked for lunch didn't make enough this time), but I managed to put together some leftovers with freshly fried eggs...it was satisfying, yet I'm slightly nervous the leftovers were too leftover (left too long). :/ I'm having a nice bowl of semi thawed frozen berries as a dessert and to forget about the leftover stuff...very refreshing!! Hoping I'll be healthy and good tomorrow because I'm dying to go out for pizza!!

Mood: okay

I had a busy day yesterday, & not much sleep. Thank you for the information about Nancy Drew. I hope I don't miss it this week. Sometimes I miss a program because I'm doing something else & forget. Today I am feeling slowed down. But I think it will be all right later. I hope your day goes well. :)

Well, I guess I must just be enjoying life too much right now to be up to posting much. Lol Good right? I'm super excited about this new (newly discovered) show I started looking into the day before yesterday and watching it last night. I was afraid it might scare me, and it still might later on, but im super curious about it. I really enjoy one of the actors in it. And there's still another show i need to finish, but i ended the season I was on, so I figure it's a decent breaking point. All of this I have to watch at my parents place because I don't have Netflix, so I basically get another week to enjoy this until they return and take back their tv. I'm also enjoying the company of their kitties ("my" kitties I say because I adore them like they're my own). They've 2 baby boys, Graybee and Blackie (not real names). One is very shy, Blackie, but he comes around for special treats lol and occasionally let's me pet him till he purrs. And then there is Graybee, the extrovert. Lol He's super affectionate and my pal.

What else? We cooked a special meal tonight which was very tasty, and I finally got my pizza yesterday. Pretty good weekend I'd say. So I'm gonna share my good vibes with all of you now.

Hugs

I'm overwhelmed with paper work & I'm just too tired, so it's been piling up. But I have read a lot of things for voting. I'm glad to see the sunshine today. :)

Sigh! I just don't know about my sleep habits! Seems I sleep less when I go to bed later but oversleep when I go to bed closer to on time. Maybe I'm compensating but I probably should have an alarm or something. I dunno! It's hard!

Moodwise I've been pretty ok. I dipped a little last night again when I got bored and started picking again. Bleh! Gross! My "body focused repetitive behavior" has been getting worse lately and I'm feeling down about that fact. Like the more I try to control it, the harder it is to resist! I'm not sure if this is the right place to talk about this, but it kinda affects my mood. But yeah, generally I've been in a good mood this week. Enjoying my mini "vacation" visiting kitties and watching some fun Netflix shows. :D

I had plans but didn't carry them out today. So I'm disappointed in myself about that. And I'm tired. Best wishes to everyone. :grouphug:

Hello again, I've been doing pretty good this morning. Today is Nancy Drew day, so I put a little sign up in front of the tv screen, so I don't forget to watch it. This morning I enjoyed watching a couple of travel shows on pbs, & also a kid's program. It all was kind of therapeutic. Have a wonderful day everyone!! :) :grouphug:

Hehe! Yep, Nancy Drew night! Little over 2 hours to go!

Well, I'm kinda in good spirits today. I didn't do anything except binge watch my new show on Netflix. I actually finished the season! (6 episodes today?? Oh, maybe it was 5) Anyway, and husband and I are going out for dinner tonight and to pick up my prescription (yeah, just a quick place for food cause it's Nancy Drew night!! Lol)

Oh, I said "kinda" good...well, the season kindof ended creepily and a little sad and I also feel kinda mixed about leaving the kitties and not seeing them tomorrow. I mean, I might go, but I might have to stay and catch up on things here. If I don't go tomorrow, I'll go Friday. Anyway, well they're just too cute to leave alone...but I bribed them with treats. Lol Anyway...

Ok, well I think I should at least do the dishes, so I'm off!

Ok, so I'm kinda disturbed at the moment by this particular season of a show I started watching...guess it illuminates some fears for me. I ugh, expressed my fear to someone online and they said the show isn't that bad. But see, this is from the male perspective and now I'm a little scared that I shared my fear. I dunno. Hopefully I'll get over it. I've been Googling all night trying to find ways to overcome fear. I feel a little bit better now...

Oh! but what brought me to this forum was to admit that while watching the show, I was engaging in my picking "ocd" thing again (for those who haven't read it yet, I haven't officially been seen nor diagnosed about this yet since it's really only been concerning since this year/couple of months). Anyway, so I suppose fear, which is kinda anxiety, right (?) is a trigger for my obsessive compulsive tendencies.

On a happier note, got to see my precious kitties again and shy Blackie was hovering around me even more again tonight. I realize that I might only be loved because I give out treats, lol, but this was even before that and after as well! <3 <3 <3 Too bad I can't live with him and possibly help him completely overcome his shyness...I suppose he's better with my folks too, but I know he still even gets jumpy with them. He won't even play with his toy on a string because it scares him! :( um...well, that wasn't a very happy ending....

How about this- does anyone else know someone who's smile just lights up their day?? They can be people you know or people you don't (like celebrities). I have a few and I just think of those happy smiles and it warms my heart! Happy smiles (and hugs) to all who need them/want them!! :)
