I can’t cope

I don't think it is foolish @tyme I think you are brave and courageous.

Doing this for someone else is such a wonderful act of kindness. I am sure he is extremely grateful to you.

Unfortunately, his mother is on drugs too @Captain24 . So he can't see her because it is too dangerous for him right now.

After rehab, if he dares even have a little, it could kill him.

I feel so bad, but I might have to say that she can't come to the house.

BTW, my top VIA strength is WISDOM. What's yours?

I definitely don’t have a green thumb either! @amber22. Cactus doesn’t survive around me!

We are going to one of the pubs for dinner. Not many restaurants around here.

Im going to try and walk Pix as part of my structure for the mornings. There is no where really to go around here. I was going to go to a larger town with Pix and go shopping but not on a long weekend.

Daylight savings starts this weekend I think so maybe I could take her to the park before dinner.

We have a few pubs around our area too that are good feeds @Captain24 D works at one of them.

The kids are going well @amber22 they go back to school on Tuesday after two weeks of holidays.

D turned 18 three weeks ago and got her license. I don't have to stay up late anymore to pick her up from work!

That’s rough that he needs to be isolated from his family too. @tyme But he needs to start breaking the cycle. If he has done the hard yards of rehab he needs to stick to it!

My top strength was honesty! Then kindness, fairness, humble and perseverance. I was focused on perseverance for the last few days.

Oh that sounds so nice, I hope you enjoy it 🙂 @Captain24

Daylight savings will be great to take Pix to the park, can't wait for it to be lighter for longer!

I need to come up with a structure for my mornings too. I think it is really helpful for my mental health, especially because I tend to feel quite anxious in the mornings. Walking Pix might be a good thing to add for you!

Aw I hope they enjoyed their time off school @Snowie

Wow congratulations D! What an achievement - and good for you that you don't have to be the taxi!!

Mostly my days have been filled with no motivation or energy @amber22. But nights are what are the worst for me. But I’m hoping by starting my day right it may help. I now know how bad things are for me, it scared me but I’m hoping it’s the wake up call I needed.

First I’m going to make my bed in the hope that if it’s made then I won’t get back into it. Clean the kitchen, bathroom and vacuum the floors. Take Pix for a walk and then have a shower. I’m hoping I can maintain that daily. I can only try.

While the weather is ok I’ll spend some time laying in the sun as well. It wasn’t real warm today, only 28 but I went out there anyway. The sun does make me feel a little better in the short term.

I can certainly see your strength as honesty @Captain24 . Those strengths are absolutely accurate 🙂

It's warm for the next few days but then it'll go down to 13 degrees again by next week..... arghhh.

I love daylight savings though. I'm looking forward to it.

@tyme that is Melbourne weather for you!!

I have enjoyed the sun the last few days. Has been a nice change.
