Just checking in.

Just checking in.

I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.

Tried sleeping here too @CheerBear @Teej but isn't happening for me either - going to try again soon. Hope you both get to sleep soon also. Hugs and some counting sheep coming to both of you

@Faith-and-Hope The land of nod hasn’t come to you yet too. I keep yawning but haven’t managed the sleep thing yet. How are you going?

Re: Just checking in.

@Teej I left just before 9 for a psych appointment which was really helpful, then went to my worky thingy (which was also really good) and didn't get home until after 6. Big heavy training topic today but important. I'm so, so sooo much loving this!

My Big was home on their own this afternoon and the littles were in after care. It is the first time in my parenting life I have done that (left one with keys to come home) and only maybe the second or third time any have been in outside of school hours care. We all did pretty well 🙂

Re: Just checking in.

That’s a great achievement @CheerBear . I can imagine it was a bit scary for you. I hope it gets easierit did for me, it helped that they’d ring for everything (even if they could have a bowl of cereal) . Strangely I found that comforting.

Its it’s so awesome to read how much you are enjoying it even though heavy.

That’s good @Faith-and-Hope, it’s not that long away from pumpkin hour. How is the study going?

Re: Just checking in.

Thanks @Teej. It feels good to be getting out and doing stuff, though a juggle and a stretch and I'm tired. I thought psych would pull me up a bit on overdoing it but instead made a joke about wanting to add to it and get me involved in some royal commission stuff. Of course my overactive brain went into hyped up "yes please!" mode and I found a community consultation session to attend. I'm going to have a bit of a think about whether it is going to all get too much soon, and what I can drop/not take on. It won't be the volunteer gig though, that's for sure. I sooo badly wish I could share where it is. You'd love it I think 😊

Big texts me all the freaking time. It helps me too. They were proud of themselves and I was proud of them.

Are you OK tonight? Is the sleep trouble bothering you?

Night @Zoe7, if you're off and hi @Faith-and-Hope ❤
