So, some days are worse than others, and on those days I sometimes feel the need to pick myself up and make the best of it. Of course, there are other days when I just give myself a day to wallow :-)
Today, I have a few things to do, like go shopping for Easter and a few bits and pieces for my fish tank. Normally on a weekend when I go out shopping etc I don't really wear make up, but today, I'm going to put some on, just to make me feel that tiny bit better and more confident about myself.
What are you going to do today?

Yeah if you see me bopping around looking a bit glamorous you can be assured that it's because I feel like sh*t but have somehow made it out of the house, and I make sure that I'm drugged up to the nines so that I can stay out as long as is endo-ly possible. I need to reassure myself on those days that I'm alive and functional. The relatively mad eye make-up is a dead giveaway. And it works

I have to study and I'm going to ingest large amounts of caffeine to do it.

I've been doing the garden today. Yesterday was crappy, so today have put make up on, half decent clothes (I am gardening after all!) and good music. It makes me remember there is more to life than endo when I'm making things pretty and causing things to grow. Tonight I will be chilling in my new beautiful garden

It worked. I've strutted around all over the place feeling better cos I looked like I'd made an effort. Ladies, sometimes the effort is worth the results. Good luck J. I'm racking my brains to think of better stimulants to give you a boost.

I have been taking a couple different vitamins and fish oil for about 2 weeks now. I don't really feel a difference yet but we'll see I guess.
Gem, I find that putting make up on makes me feel better too! LOL

It took a month for me maybe a little longer to start feeling the positive effects of fish oil.
Add me to the list of girls who puts on makeup and a nice outfit when I feel like crap.
Today I'm going to clean up a little bit before my Mom gets here and get in the shower. I've been so unmotivated the past few days.

A good hot shower is definitely a good waker-upper! And housework kills me but I really feel like achieved something after it.

distraction is the order of service for me! as soon as I get the "I'm in pain" I jump up and do something like housework or organize a closet that needed it or something! Today I made an amazing dinner for Easter and it helped. I'm sure my belly will pay for it later but it was a good endo distraction today! LOL

I now have to correct myself. That was yesterday! I have not slept yet, insomnia. Anyway, today I will build a partitioning wall on the apartment side to prevent guests from wandering too far during the festival. AF is due today but I will be unstoppable!

Laughter ALWAYS makes me feel better. It truly is the best medicine. If you can find that person that can just make you laugh and laugh, it's like instant relief. Awww I miss my friends back home
