MMHCI The Last of Delta is lashing at my windows

It is a grey day today. The rain is going from a light drizzle to a heavy downpour to just rain.

A good day to be indoors for the day.

Caroline does not have school today because of Columbus Day. This gives her another day to work on both school and projects she wants to do. She is in the middle of assembling her portfolio to submit to various colleges. She did get all her college essays done.

I am feeling okay right now. I feel more even than I have in a while.

I think part of it is my new job. It is nice to have somewhere else to go and something else to do. My fellow employees are very nice and there is a good and positive atmosphere. I feel comfortable there and useful as well. So far, it is a good fit. They are happy with me and I am with them.

I think stepping back from the Internet helped as well. I know what is going on because I watch the news and various late night comedy shows. I am going to continue to do this until I feel like I can face the Internet again.

I have been productive this past week as well which helps my mental health as I am not beating myself up for not being productive.

It is amazing how little changes can help so much.

I am grateful for feeling more like me this week.
