rough time

Kids love play dough and those sand thingy's @outlander - anything tactile that they can create things with

I have picked up Toby's toys at least but they won't stay in his toy area for long lol - he is asleep next to me right now so no more gardening for a little while ...I can't wake him lol

I need to stay inside for a bit anyway - was starting to get cold outside as the ground is quite damp still - easy for weeding but cold work too.

haha yes Toby is definitely 'a baby' @outlander soooo spoilt

He is generally a really good boy but can be a brat when he wants something and doesn't get his way - usually when he wants to play and I don't want to (but that doesn't happen often lol)

Cat is happily curled up in her cave and sound asleep also. She has spent some time outside today - she loves sitting in the sun in the garden but there hasn't been much of that lately. She is also a really good cat - except when she wants to be fed and starts talking to me early - I am good at switching off from that but it does get annoying when I am not feeling ok myself.

How are you going with your psychologist search? ...how long before you see someone with headspace?

Cat is really cuddly when she gets her chance @outlander - Toby gets the most cuddles mainly because he is everywhere that I am. Cat has her cuddles near the heater and occasionally on the bed. The heater is one place Toby leaves me alone and lets Cat snuggle in with me. I usually have a morning cuddle with Cat but at night time she is often in her cave and I definitely won't disturb her there. Most if the day she does her own thing - sleeps where she wants and ventures outside if it is dry and not too cold. She loves lounging in the sun when it is out.

It seems like you are getting some benefit from the online counselling - that is good to hear you are doing that. I know it isn;t the same as face-to-face counselling but it is better than nothing as you say!

What are the barriers for you to finding a new gp?

Not ringing and making that appointment is holding you back Hon - you need to do it @outlander We can support you here as much as possible but it is essential that you have that offline support. Make a time for yourself tomorrow and make the call - you need someone offline that you can talk to as well as get advice for both your physical and mental wellbeing.

That is exactly why you need to make that call @outlander

Have you had lunch yet?
