very pretty painting work Pokeyonekenobie

I'm still here. Stressed about the job hunt, I won't hear back from several people until the end of the month... and I have to still keep going and pretending like I don't have those opportunities.

Tried to find myself something to buy at the American Girl boutique here... but I was in the store for over an hour and I didn't find anything worth my money. Too bad because DH and I agreed to buy our own presents for our 11th anniversary - we always do, he always renews his video game subscriptions LOL, I tend to buy other things... but I couldn't find anything to buy. And then Kiddo says to me, "You have enough dolls. You should enjoy the ones you have." YEAH THANKS.

So DH promised me that we will build a dollhouse when he finishes up the last corner of floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. we will have the wood left, and all the tools, so.... that will satisfy me plenty. I am rather irritated at not having all my dolls out on display, especially as I don't know how many I own now. LOL I just buy whoever I find at thrift stores.

Your work is beautiful!!! I did get a bit sad when I realized the cupcakes were not eatable...but I love the pink and blue sleeping beauty!

Yeah thanks for sharing.

My life is in pieces...I wont bother with detail...I just going to focus on good things that make me happy and motivating myself to just function in the morning.

Right now my happy place is kitties on my lap. I might knit, but right now just focusing on good things like not moving as I have 2 kitties on my lap.

Great work Pokeyonekenobie.

I have so many items stored in the closet and on the floor without enough space to display them also.

I'm so sorry to hear that this Crowing Glory.

I am still completely unmotivated this round.

*runs around like a crazy pony*

so I got a phone call at 8 am this morning for a fulltime position. now I just have to wait for the official offer to be emailed, but... ooooooh this is the closest I have gotten to employment in a long time!

I have to make sure they have the right resume on file though because I am pretty sure that I accidentally attached a version that an ATS editor had "eaten" and so employment dates are incorrect! AUGH so embarrassing!

I don't feel Good Stress the way other people do... so AUGH stress! *cling flail wiggle conga dance!*

Sigh it has been frustrating. So I am out of the promotion but they might open it up for year 2020, but more factors will hinder the possibility. So things are very tight. We barely pay our Bill's, and the loss has bumbed me out. I am still pushing, just have other things to consider.

No matter what happens hubby and I will be moving. Rent is way to high for our apartment(its barely the size of a dorm room) and paying high rent is not helping us save. The big issue that stands before us is where we move.

It could be close, as I like the area, or across 2 states near my parents, or one state over near my hubby's brother...sigh up in the air is crazy, but time is not on our side. It will happen by Aug. Or possibly June!!!

I am tired of moving, I am tired of fighting for jobs, and I just want my own place, so I will I have to sell like crazy. So all my goals will change to selling and saving. I will be down sizing. No new yarn as I have to even down size the stash!!!

I am frustrated, nervous, sad, and excited all in one.

got my phone call. seriously annoyed, they were all like, "well, Head Office doesn't have your contract yet, so we'll just put you on volunteer contract and pay you when it comes through".

NOT the best start to things! I hope my #2 choice comes back with an offer that I can happily accept, because driving an hour's commute to a job that I will have to jump through hoops to get paid is no fun.

*twitch* We will see what happens next week! My DH also has an interview on Monday so hopefully good things will come of this! even though it seems a little disjointed and crazy at the moment... HAPPY FRIDAY PEOPLE!

Crowning_Glory13 I hope things start looking up for you soon. There's always another path, we just might not always see it until it opens up in front of us.

Bummer on the jobs...come on #2 sending prayers for you.

I know there is a path....but where...:p hehe we got this babysquirmy we will have this....our light is coming:)

Well...I started the day with a migraine and as I was going down the stairs to change over my laundry, my foot slipped and I felt my knee pop out and back in as I fell down the last three steps. So after a trip to the ER I'm not supposed to put any weight on that leg for a few days. Guess I'll be working on some of my computer projects for the next week or so.

Oh no bummer:( well it's ok to switch focus... I did too:)

I’m here but not doin well this round as my motivation is really down in both trying to lose weight and continuing to learn French.

I saw the Orthopedic doctor today and he suspects I have torn my ACL. So I'm waiting for the hospital to call me to set up an MRI appointment so we can see for sure. I would rather they call me today so I can get it set up than tomorrow because I'm going to attempt going back to work tomorrow (I can push myself around in my desk chair at work

) and the sooner I get it set up the sooner I can get my knee fixed. Since I can't really bend my knee far enough it makes it hard to paint or work on my scrapbook because my supplies are lower down on the shelf so that's on hold until this gets fixed, too.

Climbing myself up....a step at a time. I gave myself some direction and got a good pep talk from my brother. Now I just have to get motivated. Friday is my Monday...I know weird, so I am going to take the time to map out my steps and plan. I hope plan and direction will help me progress. I have stepped out of my dark hole and not want to be there again.

You know if you are not motivated for your goals, try new ones!! Or better yet cheer other on. Ponyfan you have always been an amazing cheerleader.

So happy thoughts everyone.

Ok inspired, let's get motivated! All you have to do is post and you win a prize from me!!!! No matter if you are USA or International!!!

All you have to do is start your post with #Positive and post one positive thing that has happened since Healthy Pony started. You get a second entry if the post comes with a picture.

It does not have to be goal related. Maybe you got pony mail! Maybe you saw a rainbow. Sunshine on snow, or a birthday...ANYTHING!!! it just needs to be positive. It can also be something you posted earlier.

We are losing conversation and I think if we just let our goals go and post awesome things we just might get on track. Even if we never get on track, how awesome would it be to read all these positive posts!!!!

#Positive. I received a very dingy baby moondancer. Now when I saw her picture I want to fix her up!!! Something about moon dancer just makes me smile. A wonderful pony friend...nudge nudge wink wink was selling her, but let me have her for free!!!! Not even shipping. It was a wonderful heartfelt moment as I was having a struggle. I got her today(delayed due to blizzards and cold) I instantly prepped her to get clean! I knew I could make her beautiful. And the kindness was so heart warming, she will always remind me to pay kindness forward!!!

Let's talk positive!

I can sort of walk with the crutches now, but I don't dare without the knee brace on. I survived my MRI this morning and I have an appointment Monday to see what it says. Even though I can't do any real exercise-y things like I'd planned due to this injury I managed to upload a ton of Pokemon coloring pages to Deviantart before Pokemon Day. I've finished the Kanto Region Pokemon and am going to start work on Johto next. I'm going to see how many Pokemon I can get done before the Shield/Sword games come out later in the year.

Gold Stars to everyone working on their goals! (But you have to color it in yourself!)
