We can do it BBers, we can do self-care.

Sleepy21 pointed out research that shows self-care REALLY helps!

Please share what you do for self-care so we can get inspiration, ideas and motivation to do it too.

Best wishes
EM

OH WELL DONE YOU Sleepy getting some beauty products!
I wanna know what they are lol!

Thanks for saying I'm doing well. Bit topsy turvy with Yvette's talk just now. I was almost asleep! And she came in to tell me some pretty new info.
I was already feeling today was a bit much with work news AND dear neighbours moving 😞 so sad about that.

My darling chicken is sleeping near me in bed lol!
LOVELY she decided to get well and hang about for longer. Love that.

Love EM

Sleepy LOVE YOUR WORK!

Today I:

* caught up on designer tips by our very own BB interior design team lol!

* spoke with an old friend for ages tonight and she's coming to stay when the Qld border opens YAY!

* sorted out my Return and Earn stuff and decided today that that money is going into a SELF-CARE jar, just for me... now let's see if that works. Lord knows what I'll get! Maybe cheap perfume lol or save up long time for my expensive hand cream.... IDK.
I'll have a car full so I might get $10 this week lol, I'll let you all know. :-))

LOVE EM

listened to an audio book on the way to work. Helps to take the mind off other things and focus on imagination.

Got a compliment today on a productivity tool i programmed from one of my colleagues. I got quite overwhelmed with emotion to the point where i started to tear up when they left my office. Suffice to say, that is a confidence boost i needed. So i pat myself on the back.

day isnt over yet, so at least 1 more self care thing to go.
