This was a great day! With Thomas holding Miss Emma! Now 8 1/2!
Having a great day feels so good! It is easy when you have a happy baseline. It really is important to find and maintain one’s mood.
There are some tricks, like putting on background music, and the colors we use in a room. The setting of a room, such as creating a cozy space. I love books, a cozy chair, plants, and sunny windows. Low music if I read. No matter what the rest of the house is, just one space is done so when I stop to get grounded again.
This is when I think happy thoughts about other people like Thomas or I like to write pen pal letters or actually reach out to others.
It is important to have” “me time”. This was rare when I was a mom. Now as grandma, it is when the kids can come. After Thomas died I thought I do have my grandchildren to put my energy towards. There are things I want to teach them, and simply soak them up! I want to be more active with them too!
