My special place

My special place

Well yesterday certainly threw everything off track. But thanks to some very thoughtful and kind people I was able to get threw it and continue.

I cannot say a lot about what happened as I am sure you all understand but need this support in place.

Things WILL be ok, just a lot to work out.

Psych visit yesterday sorted out some of the things and more things will be happening early next week.

I am sorry if I put anyone through any despair, but unfortunately what happened yesterday morning had to be done.

Thank you all for your continued support.

@Snowie Sending you lots of hugs and love, grief is tough. Losing a parent is hard. And things with H’s Nan would make it harder 💖🫂

Re: My special place

@Snowie I'm sorry about your sad anniversary 😢 I'm glad you had one parent who was kind.

I hope the Outreach service can provide you with more support 🤞

Re: My special place

I feel very slow and sluggish after a busy day at work yesterday. Not putting too much pressure on myself today.

How about you? @Snowie

Re: My special place

I'm sorry you feel that way @NatureLover but glad you are giving yourself a break today.

Sometimes we just need those days to chill and go with the flow.

I'm ok, just enjoying the quiet time with a cuppa and the dog. Hubby gone to work and kids still asleep. I wish I could sleep in like my kids do!! But then again they were probably up past midnight talking/texting their friends 😁

Re: My special place

@NatureLover sometimes a good rest is needed, I hope you can do lots of self care for yourself today 💖

Wishing you a good day @Snowie. If you need, you can always take a little nap 🛌. It is true many young people stay up late, I no longer stay up as late as I used to, I don’t know if it’s because I’m getting old (no longer under 25) or I’m just on so much sedating medication

Re: My special place

I tend to take my meds early too @creative_writer I do take quite a bit of sedation meds too so don't want to feel out of it the next day.

They are awake now and emerging from their rooms for food!! D is going to a friends house tonight and S is going to the movies so just hubby and I home.

Are you up to much this afternoon?

Re: My special place

@Snowie I’m going out for a Iftar (Ramadan dinner), so on the train right now. Even though I’m not fasting, I’m feeling a bit lightheaded since I haven’t eaten or had water for a while. I wish my body was able to at least tolerate it when I was out for a bit. Maybe I do need to carry snacks and water. A whole day has felt impossible this year, I haven’t been able to get through a day of fasting this year.

What are you and H going to do at home this evening? It must be nice to have quality time with H 💖

Re: My special place

@creative_writer I hope your dinner goes well. Hopefully after eating something you feel a little better.

Are you going out with friends/family?

We are now going out for tea with some of hubby's friends. Would much rather stay curled up on the couch under my blanket. Not looking forward to the small talk.

Hopefully we are not out for long.
