Re: rough time

I actually use to go to bingo sometimes too @Sans911 it was good but i dont really enjoy it anymore either. I get irritated and quite overwhelmed when places are busy which makes this time of yr harder then it needs to be when going well anywhere now.

Im sorry that lady kept ruining your concentration. Some people are just so naturally loud they forget where they are should actually be rather quiet 🤦‍♀️

Being tired and unmotivated makes things even trickier to manage too.
Have you got much on today?

Re: rough time

Thanks @eth 💕💕 theres not much rest on the horizon though im afraid. Alot of people go on holidays so i take care of the horses for them and with big fires ive taken in a few of those needing a safe place to go as well. Along with those i have my own horses, the kids more cause its school holidays, trying to work out where to fit in appts for pop and my own but usually i wait till feb to schedule any appts for myself unless i really need them. Itll be relief when the holidays are over thats for sure.
What about you?

Morning lil Sis @outlander

I like that you like Bingo as well! It's nice to have something in common.

It's just a quiet day for my mother and I at home today. I need to pop out to the supermarket again to get a couple more things. And I have my volunteer walk later today.

I've got a few emails to send this morning to, but that's not going to take long.

It's what I call a 'pottering' day.

Re: rough time

Hi @outlander and @Sans911 hope today has moments of joy in it for you both.

Outlander I'm very sorry to hear how full on this time of year is for you. Very much hoping you can squeeze in some self-care time along the way.

As for me - I'm just doing my best to breathe my way through my mother's 7 day visit. Past the half way mark now thank goodness. Yesterday I spoke directly to her about something and she didn't talk to me for 2 hours. Blessing in disguise! Then on Friday I go away for an 11 day holiday (when I won't be online or here). So very much looking forward to that. The friends I'm going to visit both have serious health issues atm so I'm hoping to be a help to them and not an extra demand.

My brother and I are doing all the food this week, including today, and I have a few dishes to complete this morning after doing some in advance yesterday. We will be 9 or 10 for brekky and lunch, so I'm going to pace myself as much as possible and have time out here and there.

Take care my friend xx

Re: rough time

Dear @outlander ... just letting you know that I am thinking of you. Hope your Christmas day was an enjoyable one.

I've not seen you around so much the past week or so ... does that mean you are struggling more than usual? If you need a bit of a breather, then its best to take it. I realise you will have your siblings care taking up more of your time right now too with the school holidays, so you will be more busy than usual. I hope you are taking care of yourself okay, and that your Pop is behaving himself as much as is possible for him to do.

Sending love and care to you sweetie.

Sherry

Re: rough time

Hello @Former-Member ❤

I have been rather busy the past week, the lead up till Christmas is always a busy time for me. the school holidays are upon us till the end of January so its adding quite abit of pressure trying to find time to do horses, have them, fit in pops appts (which I still have 2 to arrange) try and fit in any appts I have its becoming extremely stressful and overwhelming trying to do everything.
I am struggling quite a lot and yesterday really just was hard. I don't want to bring anyone down on what is suppose to be a good occasion though so just staying low. the best part of yesterday was coming onto here then going to bed early.
today is horses and cleaning so nothing unusual and I need to pick up a cupboard but I might wait till tomorrow cause of the boxing day sales happening.
anything on your agenda today?
