I feel the universe has been testing me this week!

https://ift.tt/EGFViQ0

So I have a week off work and the plan has always been to take it fairly easy and just have a nice time off, day one of the holiday my ex gets in touch asking to visit the pets, I wasn’t planning to see or talk to her till October when we are going to see a band. In my mind id had made the decision that would be the next and likely last time I see her or at least make the effort to see her, its been a one sided effort for years with us and with this journey of self love I’ve realised its not good for me.

I had things on most of the week and I even said no to a day where I had nothing on as I knew id be resting after the busy day before. So it wasn’t looking like we would meet this week which was fine, dodged that for now so I thought!

My busy Thursday arrives, first thing in the morning I get a call telling me the person I was interviewing for a job wouldn’t be able to make it, so thats 2 or so hours now open, I think thats fine Ill relax or do something else, 9AM hits when im due for my driving lesson, no sign of instructor so I gave him a ring, he’s completely forgot to put my lesson in his diary, thats another 2 hours I had planned now free… the other thing I had on that day was my warhammer club but I dont need to leave for that till 4PM so my whole day was now open and I had a heap of spoons at my disposal because I was planning on this busy day.

I felt frustrated for a while because of this, but it clicked with me, I can either let this bother me or do something about it, so I messaged my ex to arrange her coming over, I figured lets get more of the chatter out of the way now and in October we can just see the band. So that was planned, I had a few hours to kill until she was over still.

I decided instead of festering I would go and plan a trip I had been thinking about for a while to Switzerland, I looked at all the transport I would need, hostels to stay, prices, things to do. Its fully planned apart from it being paid. It took me close to 2 hours to do and I had a great time doing it!

The rest of the day went well, I talked with my ex about the shared bills and what not, I planned that trip for the future, I went to warhammer and the day ended well!

Today I had planned to go camping with my dog for a night, id been checking weather all week long and it looked good, got up today and it was heavy rain, camping was cancelled unless I wanted to sleep in wet mud with a small dog for the night!

So I chilled out a bit this morning in a bit of a frustrated state again, I decided I need to do something because again I have these spoons I had prepared! I checked the warhammer shop as they often have events on Saturdays, sure enough they have one on that I can take part in! So im on the bus to that now, after that im going to have a coffee and a muffin before getting the bus home.

Ive once again turned the negatives and curveballs the universe is testing me with into a fun day where I do things I enjoy and feel better after them.

Its part of the learning of self love I suppose, you learn to adapt, when your not happy you do something about it!

Hope you enjoy my story and if you have any comments or questions feel free to leave em!
