Something’s not right

What’s next?

What’s next?

Sitting here listening to the bird noises (I would like to say bird song but there is too many different sounds) As I said in my getting start post, I have hit rock bottom and slipped into a crack and it has me wondering what now! I know the only way is up (as I sing that one line from a song I can't remember the rest of the words too) In my last session I finally got it, the only hand that can pull me out is my own and that scares me due to the lack of faith, well the lack of anything in myself to succeed.

So here I am, stripped raw not a memory left unexplored (that I am aware of) no secrets hidden. Now I get to start again, putting it all back together bit by bit. I know there will be lots of times I may fall backwards but I am hoping that I won't get stuck there.

Re: What’s next?

Oh gosh, it's been extended?? Oh no...

I am doing OK with it but I know people who aren't OK and have no money coming in 😥

I hope you are going to be OK with the extended lockdown 😣

That cake is amazing! @Lee82

Re: What’s next?

Thanks @Lee82 ... I havent been around much either. And yes, I have missed chatting with you and @Bellarose75 a lot.

I'm adjusting to my new life. Although it may sound odd, given the circumstances, but hubby was my protector. And I no longer have that. It makes me feel very vulnerable.

This morning I have an appointment to collect his ashes from the crematorium. Trying to work myself up to do that. Not really sure how I feel about it all. I have an urn all picked out and the funeral director will transfer the ashes into it for me once I return from the crematorium. Better than me doing it myself and risk losing the lot! Could just see that happening.

I hope you are coping as well as you possibly can, and that your boys are doing well. I know life is extremely difficult for you, but I also know how strong and resilient you are. I also know how much you love those boys, and how you will do anything to be there for them. Stay strong gorgeous.

Emelia 🤗💞

Re: What’s next?

Thanks so much @NatureLover

mr10 loved it.
I'm not coping too well with this lockdown and having the boys homeschooling. It is just too much concentrating for me, too much noise and too much stimulation. I just seem to not be handling it very well. I am snapping at the kids and it's not fair cause it's my issue and not theirs. 🥺

Re: What’s next?

@Lee82 I think it is wonderful what you did for Mr10s birthday Hon. You made it special under difficult circumstances and that is something he will always remember. The cake looks amazing (coming from a non-Collingwood fan that is high praise lol) I hope once the restictions ease and things once again become more accessible that you and Mr 10 can go to a game - it may not be the one you planned on but it will mean just as much to you both. Hugs and hugs Hon
