here’s my sign
So @C_L_O_G and I had this wondering about what would happen if people wore signs that actually showing their feelings. Would we treat people differently if we could tell what they were thinking or going through or such. Today’s necklace. Isn’t it pretty?
I was really well-labeled today. I slept on the wrong side of the bed Saturday night. And then had some sort of who-knows-what going on last night. So. Really Sleepy. Of course I left my coffee on the kitchen table. Again. So the whole day without any artificial intelligence.
I said “boo clubes” about 5 times in a row. (If you don’t speak 1st grade math, it was supposed to be “blue cubes”.) I think I told someone to white on the board. I do not think I caused any permanent harm. I figured out how we could make parachuting men, so that’s pretty good. I’ve expanded my smiley face repertoire to include aliens and clowns.
Anyhow. Sign results.
People didn’t notice that I was any sleepier than usual. Which might be an indication that I can fake it pretty well. Or that I’m always barely functioning. I felt a little silly wearing my sign. Most of the time I am pretty silly, so I suppose it’s ok.
Kids thought it was great. I got lots of hugs. Who needs adequate sleep when you can get hugs.
Here’s hoping that tomorrow is an actual feeling rather than a state of being.

That’s really cute.
I need an “I have no motivation to move” one today.
I’m starting to wake up from my coma though. I was dead for like a month. I’ve been cleaning, reading and exercising.
I’ve hit a point where I realize that I’m never going anywhere, nothing I do matters, so I might as well relax and enjoy the scenery. Everyone keeps trying to get me to do stupid things.
I’m going to get rid of one of my caseworkers. I’m going to say that I don’t trust males.
Now that is cool cause you got a ton of hugs and hugs make it all better.
that is muy cool. really. will you continue to wear signs?
mine today would read same as yours
@bonmots - i’m committed to a week. i work in a school, so it’s probably way easier for me.
@Grannys_Place - nothing on earth better than kid hugs.
@Colorsofthenight - reading, cleaning and exercise all sound very good. so you did have motivation to move. hug?
Very cute.
I don’t know how you could wear one sign consistently though the day, except sleepy.
@Thatslifekid - i can have multiple signs. but i was pretty sure i only needed one today.
@ZSA_MD - :)
Sleepy would have worked for me too. I couldn’t fall asleep and then I woke up at 3 AM and couldn’t fall back to sleep. Not nearly enough zzzs.
I would have to wear that one permanently
I think what you did is coolio!!! And I’m glad you got lots of hugs!!! Hugs are energizing!!
HUGS!!!
You had a wonderful first day. I finally got my first day posted. Sunday night through right now has been a “who-knows-whats going on” “boo clubes” kind of time frame. Maybe things will level out a bit today but I’m not counting on it. I’ll probably be “whiting on the board” at the college. hahahaha
My sign for this morning says sad/light headed. There was a death in my family last night. (I had a text message about it when I woke up.) Yesterday afternoon I had an attack of something I went to bed at 6pm and slept for nine hours. I’m still a bit light headed, but the nausea has passed. It must have been something I ate. lol
Have a great sign day. I’m looking forward to hearing what happened.
@C_L_O_G - i’m sorry for your loss. and that you’re not feeling well. i have no idea what necklaces i need for today. i’m thinking confused is in there somewhere.
@adamswomanback - hugs. any excuse to get ‘em.
@godfatherofgreenbay - this is why i had “really”. to make it different than usual.
@leaflesstree - not nearly enough.
I just came back to hug your socks off. I need some socks today.
Socks as in feet coverings, not as it punches.
HUGS!!!
tomorrow wear a sign that say’s I need hugs…I bet that’d make the rest of your week interesting
I osten mifpeak when I am tire toid.
@promisesunshine - It’s been a nutty few days. Things have calmed down a bit. The viewing is tomorrow and the funeral is on Thursday. Mid Terms are going at the college. lol This calls for great flexibility. I’ll be going with the flow a lot for the rest of the week.
What did you pick for today? Most the day I wore Happy with sad and concerned written under it in smaller letters.
@adamswomanback - aw. thanks for the hugs. i’ll take ‘em. hugs right back. and then some.
@mlbncsga - i’m holding off on the “need hugs” sign. for when it’s vital to my very existence.
@Aloysius_son - it just gets worse and worse for me
.@C_L_O_G - going with the flow sounds just right. today was “confused”. i might see if i can have more than one mood tomorrow.
@promisesunshine - I’m learning a lot about myself doing this. One day I had a lot of different feelings during the day. Today was different. I felt pretty much the same way all day.
@C_L_O_G - i’m learning too. but i think i’m gonna include it, so i won’t say.
That is funny girl, errrr, sorry, Mrs Girl to you. hehehe
@olwd - you can call me girl, please.
I was just thinking about you being a teacher and how the children would probably address you. lol Obviously they wouldn’t say Girl but Mrs. Sunshine. lol
