Thankfully Boss woke me up at a good time this morning for breakfast, so I got up and am in the process of adequately waking up myself.

I have read through the messages on the group chat that came through while I was sleeping and am actually feeling much better about where I’m at regarding my uni assignment. I have even transferred the results table that I painstakingly worked through last night (thank god!!) from the template to my actual report and have watched most of a YouTube video on how to format the table. This has helped the memory of the last time I had to do it come back too, so that is great!

I’ve also reconnected with a friend I met at the beginning of my uni degree and am so happy about it! She works full time and has three kids and a husband, so it really puts my life and how much time I have into perspective.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not going to start comparing myself to others who are studying while having all this going on because my health conditions are real and play into everything I do, but, in saying that, it helps me see that it is ok to take the time I need when I need to stop and rest. She also told me that she hasn’t even started the assignment yet, and will be doing it while on a family road trip to Queensland. I can’t even imagine doing that, so it helps me see how much more self-compassion I need to have for myself.

I would also like to say THANK YOU to ALL of you!! You are truly AMAZING! I know I wouldn’t be where I’m at if it wasn’t for all of your love and support. It means more to me than you will ever know. The comments I received on my follow-up video last night warmed my heart with so much love.

I’m also very excited to say, I have 259 subscribers and 500 videos on my channel!! This will be video 501 😁
