Am Not Coping

Home now @Faith-and-Hope

I went to get my fruit and veggies first and then spent 20m minutes walking in the pool before I did my exercises. I couldn't have done that a few weeks ago so that is really positive. I am feeling the effects of it all but will rest for a while and then see if I can tackle some of the weeding a bit later. I have planted the Marjoram so our herb garden just now needs to grow

How is you day treating you?

Oh, that’s great @Zoe7 .... 👍 .... well done you ❣️

Hopefully that will help with your sleep patterns too.

This morning’s class was great. We did a collaborative artwork,which is something I have done with kids before. I love them .... they have so much character.

I had to come home at lunchtime cos I picked up meds for D3 yesterday, then forgot to give them to her and they were still in my bag .... with me .... at uni .....

Have a longer lunch hour today, so that was great.

Mr. is crabby with the kids today tho, and neither of them are good, so it’s hard to just close the door and walk away, but to some degree they will have to hussle between themselves and get a bit sorted out.

Its a beautiful day here. I hope the weather has cleared where you are .....

Collaboration is great @Faith-and-Hope Everyone has their own ideas and styles and putting them all together can often produce something really amazing - so glad you got to participate in something like that

I am going to discuss with the Principal the prospect of doing Art a couple of mornings a week with the aim to participate in an end of year event as I once did with the kids. I think it would be a great way for me to get back into work modemand be something to look forward to. It I could do that Tues and Thurs mornings then I could go to the pool afterwards. If I could get through that for a while then I could get through a whole day at work.

Your kids are old enough to be trying to work these things out for themselves and I know part of this move was to help them find their own voice and motivation to get things done. Whilst you want to help them it is also important that they help themselves - so as hard it is to walk away you are showing them by going back to uni the motivation that is needed to achieve what you want - and that is being both a good parent and a postive ri=ole model for them

Thanks @Zoe7 ..... 🦋💕

@Faith-and-Hope Have a great afternoon Hon - I will catch up with you tonight

Thanks @Zoe7 .... you too ...

Heading back to class.

👋

I am going ok @outlander Been resting this afternoon after some grocery shopping and the pool.

Yeah I did 20 minutes of walking before my exercises today @outlander.

I am going to try to go back to the pool on Sunday by it is only open until 12 noon so it would have to be an early session - might even get there tomorrow - see what the weather is like first. If it is a clear day and not too cold I will try to get into the garden for a little while - there is a lot of weeding that needs to be done and both the front and bak yards need to be mowed.
