Erica's Blog – January 2011 Archive (11)

thank you all for your warm thoughts.

 

We're feeling a bit better about it now. we'll just go with the flow and care about what happens today. and won't worry to much about tomorrow.

 

anyway. the gift I gave today was a homemade cake for my husband, as comfortfood. it's full of chocolat. i'll put up a pictur of it up today.

I also called my mom and let her know I think about her.

 

so that much for today. I'll spend some time with my husband…

hello 

I haven't given any gifts so far today.

but i needed to spill some thoughts. I hope you don't mind.

 

my husband is sick. he's got ptss. and lately it's been going great. today we had an appointment with a doctor who would look if he'd be able to work again. (he's also unemployed). it turns out the doctor doesn't see it happen within now and half a year. wich sucks 'cause then he'll be unfitted for work. the doctor says it looks like my husband has…

I walked through the streets and suddenly I…

hi



today was a good day I guess.



I gave directions to two different people today.

and at my internship I gave my self the space to go home and work there in stead of waiting untill someone gave me leave to go home. I have to show my strenght there. so taking that decision was a good one.



for tomorrow I'm planning on writing to cristians in countrys were they're not appreciated. to say the least. there is this foundation and they have some people who you can… Continue

today is supposed to be blue monday, I haven;t noticed it one bit.



my gifts today were versetile. I helped Annelies out by sending her the downloads from the site, I also smiled at people and really thanked them when they helped me, like in a store. and last, I sent my little sister (she's 19) a mail. last week she broke up with her boyfriend(good for her!!) but she doesn't really wanna talk about it. so I sent her an email telling her that she's always welcome in our home for a talk… Continue

so, after my meltdown yesterday and your hartwarming responses I stopped for a while and looked around, immediatly occasions occured where I could be a gift to others. I helped someone carry a heavy object, I was kind, I cooked dinner, both as a gift to myself as my husband, I love to cook and he already cooked two days in a row. and in the evening I texted a close friend of mine who's just as stressed as me, and has a little baby as well, i still haven't heard from her, I'll call her later…

hello,

 

today is my third try this year (!) to start a new cycle. I'm just so stressed with school and work. and I'm so tired. yesterday I had my first day at my internship-place. and I should've used that time at school. and now.. I'm kinda drowning, I know that this is the best time to go think about others but I just can't! and it's two in the afternoon, and still I haven't given anything. it kinda drives me crazy. any pointers, tips, feedback? please?

 

love,…
