Back Under House Arrest day 209

Yesterday was a chill out day, a rest up after a few drinks the night before, when I think back to how we used to be up to all hours partying right up until my late 40's I definitely can't do it now, and I don't force myself to either. When I've had enough, that's it, I'm done. I used to stick at it regardless of how I felt for other people's sake. Or more importantly because I was worried about what they'd think of me, now I don't. It's strange how you get older and start doing what you should have done all along, which is do what makes you happy. And by that I don't mean have a total disregard for others, just learn your limits, and learn when to walk away without guilt, because that's not what you want.
I spent a long time people pleasing ( and yes there are times when I catch myself doing it even now) and it got me nowhere. You cannot change what someone thinks of you, but you can change how you let influence your actions. 
As we head into Lockdown two, I'm going to use this time to do do more stuff for me, my mental health needs a recharge, and my emo post yesterday was the warning sign that I am dwelling a little too much on the stuff I can't control. Again. 
Time to stop watching the news so much and maybe a time out of social media, ( by the way I write on a blogger app, which gets posted on to Facebroke automatically) Doesn't mean I'm on SM constantly so if I'm not responding to your posts it could be I'm not reading them, and if I do respond it means I've popped on to see what's happening on my creative groups...
