Hi Angel Friends :) Thank you all so very much, for your wonderfully comforting, and uplifting comments on my journal, hugbook, and messages. :) i appreciate everything. :) i'm feeling better today, taking it easy, and slow. :) yesterday's rough experiences took a lot out of me, emotionally, and physically. i was really rattled by the 2 rough experiences. i did rest the rest of the day, got a good night's rest. :) i was feeling down yesterday, and this morning, about how things turned out yesterday. i guess i was so really intensely looking forward to shopping, to having fun, and enjoying the experiences, and when the experiences didn't go as well as i would have liked them too, it really dampened my spirits, and discouraged me. i had been looking forward to going shopping all week, and i don't get to go out much, i don't drive, i was patient all week, waiting to shop, and i think when we get our hopes, and spirits up for an adventure, and it doesn't go as well as planned, it can really get us down. i don't ask for much, just wanted to enjoy a shopping day, and experiences. i was talking with my mom about how i wish i had more time to browse around sears, to at least get a chance to see the other side of the men's clothes section, to see if i could find some jeans for sale.
i felt really rough in that store, and in supercenter, feeling rushed, and with the stores busy, it was just the worse time, not being able to focus, to be confident, and to be at peace about shopping and enjoying it. i really want to get back on track, and have more time to shop. my mom said next saturday, we could go there to shop. :) i said, i would really like that. i had been looking forward to shopping so much, and having a rough experience like that, take me a little bit to heal, both emotionally, and physically. my nerves were numb the rest of the day yesterday, i was in rough shape, but i'm doing better today. i love to be in the spirited peaceful and calm relaxing confidence soaring zone during my experiences,and i didn't know it was gonna be so rough out there yesterday. my mom talked with me about how my dad just isn't in the mood to shop sometimes, and that's when he can be antagonizing mood.
i love shopping, and i really want to give Sears another chance. i'm not gonna get intensely excited about going there like i did last week, i just would like to keep the option open, that next saturday, we could go to sears, and could shop in the other half of the store, i would like that, and not feeling pressured, and rushed. that is worse feeling, when you feel pressured, and rushed, it is uncomfortable. i've been really looking forward to improving my clothes, with new jeans, new shoes, and feeling better about myself. i was feeling so out of it yesterday at sears, and the supercenter, with my ripped jeans, and my old shoes that have holes in them. i'm gonna talk with my mom some more, about how next saturday, if we can peacefully have free time, to not rush, to shop relaxingly, like we did in the christmas tree shop, then i will go to sears. i think i could find another pair of jeans there, with the bootcut style. i found a pair there once, that was awesome, and would like to browse around a bit more. this upcoming week, my new jeans from Kohls.com and my new shoes from walmart.com will be coming. :)
i really want to do these nice things for myself, having new jeans, shoes, plus i got new shirts. :) i'll feel more comfortable going out to shop, whether it's the mall, walmart, or dollar store, and going to the post office. :) i want to enjoy shopping. my mom said, she was a bit distracted by easter shopping yesterday, and was in a rush. i understand, as i too have times when i'm in a rush to accomplish things. if i go shopping with my dad, i want him to be sure he's behaving himself in the store, and not bringing attitude with him. he's got no problem when he's out delivering pizza's, and is nicely polite to all costomers, and we would like him to be polite when he's out shopping with us. :) it's only fair. my dad's usually very cool, but at times he's in those moody moods. i would like my dad to go shopping with us next saturday, at sears, and maybe he would like to browse at the shirts, or jeans. this will be nice, to shop, and i will feel much better, knowing that i at least got a chance, to browse around like i want too, at the men's clothes there.
i felt so frustrated yesterday, and even this morning, because i had put such hope into shopping, and it going well, and when it didn't, i just felt so deflated spirit. i think if the experience at sears went better yesterday, i would have done much better in the supercenter, because i would have loved to just spirit browsed around there, and i can handle crowded places at times, but i was frustrated about how it went at sears, and that was where my focus was left, and supercenter, i just melted. had no chance in there to do well. i went into that supercenter 2 days before Christmas this past december, it was crowded everywhere, and i did really well, because i was focused. focus is so key in these experiences. it helps me to write about how i'm feeling. my mom and dad know i'm really upset and down about how things went yesterday, and i just want to be able to browse a little more. i hadn't been in that sears store, in 3 years. i rarely get to go there, and just wanted to browse a bit more.i hope to be able to go there next saturday, to browse around. :)
LOOKING FORWARD TO A NEW WEEK :) A NATURE SPIRITED WEEK :) thank you all so much, for comforting me, and uplifting me. :) i know yesterday was rare day, where my anxiety got the best of me. i'm not gonna let it get me down, i'm moving onto new week, with lots more nature walks, taking pictures of our plants, birds, seeing if our bell peppers seeds sprout, plus i want to focus on some positive joys too, like my writings, getting into a nice grove, and tune of the week. :) getting some treats on sweet treats tuesday, super wednesday post office adventure, ghost hunters party, and lots more, leading into a nice baking friday adventure. :) i'm so glad i'm doing some writing, and just getting ready for a brand new week. :) tonight i'm going to watch my new movie, "Lincoln" :) i need to eat healthier this upcoming week, i've been struggling with not eating well, and keep trying and trying. this upcoming week, is spring spirit rejuvenation week for me. :) i need to keep nice peaceful positive thoughts, getting my new jeans, shoes, and gonna enjoy each day to the fullest. :) this feels good, writing, as i love to write, it's theraputic for me, and i feel like i'm writing it all out, all my emotions, feelings, and can begin the new week feeling refreshed, and moving forward  :) my family and i thank you all so very much, for all that you do for us. :) We deeply appreciate everything, with all of our hearts. :) You all are very special friends, and bring great joy, happiness, peace, excitement, and sunshine to our days and our lives. :) BIG GROUP HUG :) tonight, i'm gonna enjoy a nice movie night, and there's many more wonderful things to look forward too. :)
-never lose hope :)

Yes, I do not do well in very busy, crowded places any longer -- just too much stress I think.
