My special place

I don't drink tea or coffee, mostly chai and the occasional hot choc.

today has been okish @Snowie did home learning this morning and then went to bunnings to get some plants. Justified it cause it was good for my mental health 🙂 spent a few hours outside in the sunshine doing some gardening. Now just chilling on the couch before making some dinner.

you ok my friend?

Glad you could do some gardening @Bow Hopefully that helped a little. What is for tea?

Emailed my psych yesterday afternoon and she got back to me last night. Tried to contact my pdoc but couldn't get through to him. Today is better then yesterday at least but still thankful for prn. They are helping me get through the day. Sh is still a problem though.

Just watching the press conference, VIC are going back into lockdown. Should be used to it by now. Means kids back to home schooling and my supports will be back to tele health. How I hate that.

@Snowie I've just put a zucchini lasagna in the oven. Have made it a few times recently and really liked it. Nice not having the heavy pasta lasagna sheets in it too. D won't eat it though, so she will just have pasta and veggies.

im glad that you emailed your psych and she responded so quickly. Equally glad that today is a little better @Snowie 💕

sorry you guys are going back into lockdown:( that sucks. I hate Telehealth too. My psych phoned me today, it's going to be a few weeks until whoever they are going to hand me over to can see me. So at the moment I have an appointment via Telehealth with my current psych next week unless something comes up. I'm not really keen to keep seeing her... kind feels pointless. Sigh.

Zucchini lasagna sounds yummy @Bow

Telehealth does suck, I find it so hard to talk to them that way.

I can uncerstand that it would feel kind of pointless hon, especially since you won't be seeing her in the future. Perhaps you can use the time to tell her what you would like your new psych to know and what things she can pass on.

It is a very hard situation to be in for you.

@Snowie

Glad you managed the school and work runs. Ooooh the years that we are chauffeurs.... at least it gives some order to our days.

We just had an early din, a big lamb irish stew/stockpot, which went down a treat, after son returned from a BIG session at the gym. He is looking good physically and his posture is gaining so I am glad he is getting into his own rhythm, as well as keeping up with his music. Rhythm is not always the same thing ....for music and regulating the self, but he is steadily chipping away at it, and his sleep issues are receding.

@Bow

aaah ... your lasagne sounds good!

@Appleblossom @Snowie Lasagna was delicious!

@Snowie really sorry you've had a rough few days...also that we are back in lockdown as I know that's rough for you - no ECT plus only Telehealth appts.

Thinking of you and wishing for what you need, when you need it. 💙

Good morning @Snowie wondering how you are doing today? Love and hugs 💕

Good afternoon @Bow @NatureLover @Faith-and-Hope @Eve7 @outlander and anyone else around.

Even though we are in lockdown I was able to have ECT this morning which was good. Got back from it awhile ago and have been busying myself with some cooking.

Kids back to home schooling and psych and pdoc appointments back to online. Not sure how this will go but can't really do anything about it. It is what it is. I just hope we are not in this lockdown for long.

It makes life a lot harder, as you all probably know anyway.

I hope your day is going well 💌💌

I hope the recent actions here don't prolong our lockdown @Snowie , but you're right .... it is what it is, so if we can accept it as best we can, and focus on ways to manage our time and circumstances (or distract, distract, distract) it helps.

Hugs ❣️
