WHMP: 25 August 2017
Today I reached another milestone in this crazy journey!
I very special person to me for the last six months has been nagging the crap out of me (with love) about my inability to accept a compliment and how I need to get over it and graciously say thank you in return and then actually believe it myself.
There must have been something in the air today as I received not one, not two but eleven that’s right count them eleven seperate people at work comment on how beautiful, phenomenal, gorgeous, thin, healthy, lovely I looked today.
Normally I would have laughed and made some kind of joke about people giving me a compliment like that. Today I simply said thank you!
Several people asked what the occasion was today and I just giggled saying isn’t debuting a new dress enough of an occasion?
Old negative habits still die hard though and I secretly did wonder to myself as I was receiving all these compliments today…..so I normally look that hideous that makes today so good? Hahaha
One step at a time so today I am celebrating the fact that I graciously and sincerely said thank you to received compliments…….without making a joke!
