I was watching a documentary on Youtube, by Stacey Dooley and I talked about it in my daily blog: https://mydailythougthsandfeelings.blogspot.com/2023/12/loving-each-day-and-not-allow.html

It was about death, and how Stacey, is fearful of it, and it really hit home how life can end at any time. You have to live whilst you are breathing and spend time enjoying yourself, and especially during these times and spending time with the people you love. Have a weekly coffee and chat with friends each week, and not go to a coffee shop, but at home, and just catching up, or go for a walk together, and just be present.
I once a week go out for a coffee to prepare notes for my other channel, My Way of living, and I enjoy it and spend time looking in Charity shops and walking through the local common or park. I have an injury at the moment which was really hurting me yesterday, and so couldn’t walk too far. I hope this heals, but I am not going to let it effect my mood or stop me from getting outdoors. I just need to walk slowly and not rush, and I don’t like walking fast, I like to spend time watching the ducks in the duck pond, nearby and last night watched a film, which i don’t always do. It was on BBC iPlayer called The Nativity, but made a change and just relax and wind down properly so I have a goods night sleep and feel that I have had a good day, no matter what challenges are that I have had to face that day.
Today I went to see my sons school Art Exhibition, and was so nice and different, and he was very pleased with himself, seeing what my son has done, and you have to take in these moments, and we have to make these events, and I was nervous, but glad we (my husband and I) went to see it. These days of my childs life are important to me and helps to keep me living and enjoying life.
I am extra tired today, and always feel overwhelmed this time of the year, making sure I bought gifts I need, I sent some Christmas cards. I always get these done so late, and wrapping gifts. Yet going to still make sure today is a good day.
There will be days where we struggle to get out of bed, and the business of the week can catch up on us, but I know if I have slept well, that I have had a good day, and opening more doors to my life and so make each day count now and not feeling any dread, that I used to feel each day.
I hope you all have a Happy Christmas, and I will be writing more blogs, but my son finishes for the Christmas holidays tomorrow, so may not get the chance to blog, but will continue into the new year.
Many thanks for reading,
Carrie X
