HOME

Well I'm finally home (again).
4 hospital stays in 91 days. Wow. No wonder it feels so strange to be in my own house again. Adjusting will take time. Cooking for myself will take time.
My house is in the same condition in which I left it. A pigsty. So no one room has warmth and charm to lift my mood. Will have to slowly start cleaning up - one room at a time.
I did go and watch my son play soccer in the finals. I'd been so sick this year - thst it was the first game I had been to all year. His team lost. But they play again next week. So still stand a chance of playing the grand final.
My son is still living with my mum. Has been since the end of April. Hopefully he will see how much I've improved on my new anti depressants and anti anxiety meds. Then he may choose to come home soon.
Was up and doing the washing early this morning. But now reading a book in bed.
Am very bored. But have AA Meeting tomorrow night.
And I have my WorkCover IME (independent Medical Examination) - psych interview with a tough psychiatric on the 30th of this month. Think it could be on Wednesday. And then I have my much waited for Psychologist appointment. Can't see him when I'm in hospital (too far away).
So that's it for now. A new thread for a new beginning.

Re: HOME

Hi @Zoe7 I'm having a better day today, how about you?

Oh @utopia the heat! We had two days in the 20s, then sweltering again today and laying low. Take it easy if you can.

Hello @Shaz51 @BlueBay @Kurra Hope you're travelling ok.

Re: HOME

So good to hear you are having a better day today @frog

I am laying low too today - getting warm here already so housework and an inside day as much as possible. Watered the garden early and will do that again tonight as I won't be able to do it over the next couple of days.

I hope you can get it fixed tomorrow then @utopia and you can cool off a bit. We are expecting a drop in temp the next couple of days - hope you get some relief there too.
