I am well! A bit fatigued at the moment, but overall feeling okay. @MissGremlin

I have hot pilates and a dance class tonight. 🥰

What creative things have you been doing? I can see there's been some Lego adventures with @NightFury!

@AuntGlow glad you are well despite that fatigued feeling, I know that feeling well.

Pilates and dance class sound amazing and I hope you enjoy them ☺️.

Think the Lego is about as creative as it gets for me at the moment, I've had a puzzle that I've been working on but it's been very slow progress 😂.

Thank you, lovely. @MissGremlin

Ooh, what's the puzzle??

PS: I am leaving now but will be back on Sunday! 💛

Here's the puzzle @AuntGlow ☺️

Hope you have a nice couple of days and I look forward to seeing you around on Monday ❤️.

Good morning @MissGremlin

How are you doing over there? Did you get your lego finished yesterday?

Morning @NightFury, I'm doing ok, how are you feeling sweet?

I didn't finish it but i did do part of his head ☺️. How's your set going?

Weird @MissGremlin things are weird.

I did get a decent sleep last night, but things were weird. I still slept with the loungeroom lights and the TV on, but at least I slept in my bedroom. I turned the TV off at about 3 am, but kept the loungeroom lights on. Before I went to bed, I put a chair in front of the back door...I guess I was thinking that it would make a noise if anyone was to come in and would be unexpected for anyone who was coming in. It's weird, I know. Still doing lots of door checking to make sure it's locked and watching the street.

I woke up with a headache. I've had coffee, but Luna and I are still just kind of chilling in bed. I need another cuppa and to eat something shortly.

After finishing both front legs, I put it away, so maybe I'll get some more done today.

@NightFury i hear you.

I'm glad you got a decent sleep and I can understand putting the chair in front of the back door and it's not weird at all. It's ok that you slept with the light on and even that you keep checking the doors, this is all still so very fresh and it's going to take time to feel safe again. You are doing well sweet ❤️.

Sorry that you woke up with a headache, hope it eases soon. I made myself a cuppa and took it back to bed with me where I'm cuddling with Casper. What are you going to have to eat?

Hope you can get some more done today. Have you got anything else planned for the day?

@MissGremlin it all just feels weird, that's all and I know that it's not really logical, it's driven by fear and anxiety.

I've gotten into the habit of having ham and cheese toasted sandwiches for breakfast. I've had one every day for the last month or so. So, I will get up and make myself one of those and while it cooks, I'll feed Luna. She has chicken necks.

I don't have any plans. I was tentatively planning to go out for lunch and to the movies, and then into Telstra because I have some things to sort out in there...but I really don't want to go any where. I had significant anxiety about just going down the street yesterday. Which also, I know is not logical.

I'm trying to decide if I still challenge that and take myself to lunch at a local Cafe. I have to go out tomorrow - we have a lawn bowls practice match. So, I have to work on this anxiety and panic about leaving the house and leaving Luna at home. As I said, things feel weird.

My groceries are being delivered later this arvo and I have a phone call this evening with my student support advisor from the Uni, regarding a draft for an assignment I submitted.

@NightFury whilst it may not seem logical and we know that it's driven by fear and anxiety it's ok for things to be like this right now, you've been through something traumatic and your mind and body are finding any possible ways to make yourself feel as safe as possible.

Ham and cheese toasties are yummy and such a quick and easy snack, i love having croissants with ham, tomato and cheese ☺️. Casper has chicken necks just like Luna does ☺️.

Take things slowly my sweet, even if you just manage to go out to do one of those things today, and it's ok if you don't either. Not sure how you feel about cameras but you can get ones that detect movement and it sends a notification to your phone, i have one in my window and it just helps with that little bit of comfort when I'm not home or even when I am that I can see who is at the door before I answer it.

I know things feel weird right now and that's completely ok, it's going to take time sweet. Sending you hugs ❤️.

Hope the phone call goes well this evening ☺️.
