Re: not coping

Re: not coping

@Snowie
Im not sure about the sleeping thing. My sleeps still very scattered even when im super tired. I have to be up early to pick up my step dad after dropping his car off the the mechanic but then ive got abit of a free day. Not sure if thats a good or bad thing as yet! I dont really have anything to do and people still get fined here 1000 or more for going out without a reason plus beaches parks and everything are closed still so not much to do and no where to go.


Id love to share some of my crochet things with you! It makes it abit hard cause most of the pics or thing i make now are from the orders i recieve. I havent really been getting many orders tbh but i havent advertised as much either. People that have brought them (well from what family have told me anyway) they arent really a fan of them except my aunt who ordered a blanket and now has ordered another one fot winter as well. So i stopped advertising and havent really done much with my fb page either. Just feel disheartened by it tbh.

Re: not coping

So glad the dizzy spells have settled @outlander

tomorrow will be a big day for you and I'm so so sorry it's an anniversary but it sounds to me like you have already started putting measures in place. I'm sure you know but distraction is the key. Maybe make yourself a list of things you can do tomorrow so when tomorrow comes no need to think about what to do. Do you have anymore assignments that you can do?
I'm pretty physically mentally emotionally exhausted

Re: not coping

Perhaps even some self care at home @outlander

I know you will try and keep yourself occupied but remember I am only a tag away. I haven't got much planned for tomorrow so will keep an eye out for you hun.

It's good your Aunty has ordered another blanket, hopefully that will keep you a little busy.

Will have to say goodnight hun, I hope you get some sleep tonight hun.

Will check in on you tomorrow

Re: not coping

Thank you @Lee82 💞
I really dont have much to do tomorrow. I have to be up earlish for something but itll only take an hour tops and then i dont have much to do. Everything is still shut here, words slowed down outside my caring roles as well. I dont even think im baby sitting tomorrow.

Do you want to talk about anything? Happy to listen if itll help?
