Re: Taking the plunge
Thanks @Maggie 💜💜
No, no sleep but am trying to at least rest. Quite alot of pain now, guessing from lack of sleep and also muscle tension including my face.
Seems he has gone to bed so may be able to squeeze in an hr or so before i have to get up to take kids to school horses then the appt before getting kids again

Re: Taking the plunge
Strange feeling @CheerBear . My twisted mind is messing with it saying, it’s just another, ‘we’ve done the phone call thing’, but nothing coming true.
I don’t trust the system, or anyone in it. I guess time will tell. But trying to hang onto something at times as well. Emotions are tricky at the best of times. Mine are never straight forward, always this and that. The push pull stuff. 😩😩😩
How did Yesterday go with the crew?

Re: Taking the plunge
I had a feeling it might be a bit push pully with you @Maggie. Holding on, and this seems as much of a solid thing to hold on to as you've had for a while?, is so important. Protecting yourself from the crash if it falls though is sensible. I feel the same when I think about what this means for you too.
Yesterday was bucketloads of fun 🙂 It was so hot and there were so many people at the event, so that part wasn't great for adults but kids loved it. I think council will rethink it next year if it happens again (first year this year) as so many turned out (really good to see). We all came back here for fish and chips after and that was awesome fun. 7 kids here having water fights under the sprinkler until after 8pm. Adult company and lots of laughs. Great memories 🙂
How's today looking for you (you have your appt today is that right)? Is there anything you need to do for the house stuff?

Re: Taking the plunge
Just going to drop this one and wait for it to approve @Maggie, wishing I could share some more. We have a long driveway and a fair bit of concrete around, and often they all play chalk. Seeing the driveway covered in colour ans funny drawings is one of those things that makes me feel good 😊. Here's a little piece of it (edit as I put the wrong one up)

Re: Taking the plunge
Yes @CheerBear it is self protection. I’ve been on the verge of a crash for awhile, but clinging on, so don’t want to tempt fate. Tricky.
Oh, your yesterday sounds wonderful. 💜💜💜👍👍👍 yes happy memories for everyone. I could see kids under the sprinkler having soooo much fun. Yes. 😁😁😁
Yes, meeting this morning 10.30. Counsellor comes at 10, so we’ll be ready and waiting.
Just a touch up house facelift this morning, nothing major.
Its going to be a hot one here today. 29 I think. So I won’t be doing much, or as little as possible.

Re: Taking the plunge
Such a tricky balance, especially when so much is riding on it @Maggie. I really loved hearing that the cage rattling has helped get you somewhere (again though wishing it didn't have to come to that).
How are you feeling about your meeting today? Another hot one here too. I am not a fan of this heat and it's making me wonder what we're in for in summer with it being so warm already 😏
I'll be in a meeting around the same time today. It's a prep meeting for my big NDIS review on Monday. I feel sick thinking about Monday and am doing super well to not let that get me as badly as it could be, but the worry is setting in now and it's getting hard to keep it away with it being close.
I see @Former-Member up also. Morning to you ❤☕

Re: Taking the plunge
I got a few texts while the cage rattling was in progress @CheerBear hands on hips, disapproving glares. Dragon receptionist breathing fire. No wonder we have panic episodes if we need to go there. Territorial isn’t pretty at times.
I get rattled with meetings @CheerBear . My avoidance cap is on atm, but it will fall well and truly off shortly.
I get that the Monday meeting for you is a biggie, lots resting on it. people who know little about us, making big decisions on our behalf. Is there anything you can bring to the meeting that helps? Will be with you in spirit hoping it’s not too hot for sparkly boots.👍👍
