Today is just a day where I feel quite hopeless and sad about things. And then I read this for todays advent reading… 🥺

Little December ‘challenge’…although it’s hardly challenging… rewatch all the Call the Midwife Christmas Specials starting with 2012!

Treated myself to an advent book to read over December - usually I use online devotions but felt I wanted something physical this year. And I’ve just lit the advent candle. This is such a lovely season 🎄

1st December and Advent. To try and aid my mental health and also to celebrate I’m going to share something (maybe 2 things) each day - a small joy or something positive.

This morning already was a lovely pink sky for sunrise that I could just sneak a look at from the garden.

I can’t believe tomorrow is December. The advent candle is out and ready as I so loved having one last year! 🎄

I pulled my back yesterday and today has been a lesson in how lucky I usually am to just be able to move, or sit, or lean, or reach.

My journal app reminds me of previous entries from years gone by. 2 years ago today was what I see as the start of my mental health challenges - first horrendous depression and now anxiety (altho they are hardly mutually exclusive!). It’s really hard to be kind to myself… 1/2

Reached Series 6 of my #GilmoreGirls rewatch and we are in the Lorelai and Rory argument era 😔

Did the sun actually rise today? We’ve had the light on all day! ☁️

It’s that Friday feeling! An enjoyable feeling when you often work weekends - but not this weekend!

Been reading this over this year - probably averaging a couple of pages a week. Such an excellent mix of scripture alongside breathing techniques I’ve been using this year to help with my anxiety. Beautiful!

Just finished watching All the Light We Cannot See on Netflix. I’m not sure I have the words for the mix of feelings I have on it, but would definitely recommend it to anyone!

I feel like I’ll never find anyone on here 😂 #Neighbours folks please find me as a starting point!
