After I finishing the uploading and checking, I called the tax preparer and we agreed he would hold off on processing my return and my mom's return until early May since I couldn't pay processing fees until then.

After I finishing the uploading and checking, I called the tax preparer and we agreed he would hold off on processing my return and my mom’s return until early May since I couldn’t pay processing fees until then. And he was relieved too since he is very busy. So I ate my meal, and started on a knitting pattern for a face mask. That is how I tended to myself yesterday. I also let myself feel when I needed to. That took up some time too. I also had calming tea & refreshing tap water, and good music to participate in.

What comes to mind is to find something different to engage with when I have the urge to pick up my phone and scour for the latest info. Twice a day is enough in these heightened times. My frequency is a lot more 3 Reply Jennifer L. Wyatt10 months agoJennifer L. WyattThis is a good question for me today. 1) finish up with items that have been on my list for a long time. 2) plan some fun for myself. 3) Let go of things that I cant control. 4) One day at a time. 5) Enjoy the small pleasures. 6) Get enough sleep, food, deal with anger and connect with people when I want too 7) Practice good self care. 8) Take it easy. 9) Deal with unfinished business with others. 10)Stand your ground when need be. 4 Reply Antoinette10 months agoAntoinetteI went to the hospital today for migraine treatment. Have had one for two days now. I hope it passes by tomorrow. I’m grateful it’s only migraines and I know they can’t stay forever. I feel for all of the people who are suffering and send them loving kindness and relief. Be well. 4 Reply Connie10 months agoConnieBe kind to myself with my words.

This will allow me to begin my day by connecting with my breath, and then be able to close the day with connection to the breath aswell. 6 Reply BabaYaga10 months agoBabaYagaBy returning to a creative project I have been working on for several years and starting to learn how to put it out into the world. 4 Reply pkr10 months agopkrBy being gentle with me. This sheltering in place is beginning to wither me. I feel this emptiness, a hollowness and I am not sure what to do with it. So, today I will feel it and put no pressure on myself to try figure it out, to do something about it. I will just feel it, breathe deep and be gentle with myself. 5 Reply TeriB10 months agoTeriBBy remembering to breathe and be grateful in this time of uncertainty. 2 Reply Debra10 months agoDebraBy embracing the silence and saying ‘welcome’ to peace. 5 Reply Gerry10 months agoGerryToday in this life that has become increasingly manic-depressive (saddened and plummeted to despair by the friends’ losses, uplifted by the selfless acts of people from all walks of life,) I will pause often, taking deep breaths inhaling love and kindness to fill my entire body. Exhaling love and kindness through my heart. 8 Reply Antoinette10 months agoAntoinetteThat’s beautiful Gerry. Thank you. May you be well and happy. 0 Reply pkr10 months agopkrGerry, sending you love and kind thoughts. ❤️?❤️ 0 Reply Debra10 months agoDebraGerry: Bless you for sharing your uplifting breathing mantra —- inhaling ‘love and kindness’. Breathing deeply is fabulous. Thank you. 4 Reply Katrina10 months agoKatrinaI will tend to myself today by planning worship for my community of faith for the coming weeks. Investing in work for others raises my spirits and keeps me focused outwardly and positively. 4 Reply Mark Piper10 months agoMark PiperLet the fallow ground lay fallow. Being fruitful, as we are called, does not mean over burdening every inch of soil every hour of every day. I will know my boundaries today and tend to the fields that need watering, the hectors that need sowing, and I’ll rest as needed in the fallow fields. 7 Reply Eddie10 months agoEddieI get up early and have time to tend to myself. I give myself time first to exercise, think, plan. Going outside by myself is always a goal too. 5 Reply Maryke10 months agoMarykeI have read a lot about ‘loving yourself first’, so I am on that journey right now. Doing what brings me peace, balance and happiness. But in this – reaching out to others – even just to make them smile, brings me happiness. I’ve started making short videos where I sing and loading them up to Facebook, and the response I’m receiving is good. So, in tending to myself, I am also tending to others. 7 Reply Debra10 months agoDebraMaryke , that’s wonderful. And singing — isn’t that so joyful! Blessings. 4 Reply Michele10 months agoMicheleHow I wish to be able to go get a massage. I’m feeling tired and drained.
