My journey

So not too far away from the beach @Former-Member I miss taking Toby to the beach but it is too cold and wet here lately and I definitely haven't been able to do much since I hurt my back. I went out for dinner with my family last night for a birthday and just sitting for a length of time made my back worse so I have been resting it all day today. I had pain killers earlier as it was feeling very sore - they helped a little but they don't take all the pain away.

Hopefully I will feel a lot better tomorrow after the rest and can do a little housework - I hate being in an untidy house!

Not far @Zoe7 The closest is 10 minutes away. It’s very cold. That’s really great you went out with the fam. Back still seems to be an issue. I hope in time in does get better.

Feel a bit in shock last few days with some things and quite numb at the same time. I feel everything too some days and then clearer others times god i am insane.

hope you feel better too, I stress about not being organised and things clean. Dropped some eggs yesterday, just got mega mad at myself over nothing really @Zoe7

It’s good you respect the space and home you are in x

I have always liked my home clean and tidy - it somehow makes my mind feel more organised when my home is clean as well @Former-Member Everything has a place and I like it when things are put away where they belong. I have always been the same lol

It is hard to keep tidy atm with all my school stuff in the house but I have managed to stack a lot of it in containers in the spare room. There is still a lot I need to sort through but there is no rush as I am not at work and don't need any of that stuff just yet. I am aiming to get back to work for a couple of days a week by 4th term - not sure how that will go but having something to aim for is actually helping me have just a little of motivation some days - other days I feel very flat and can't see it happening but fingers crossed those days begin to disappear a bit more over the next few months.

@Former-Member I am going to have to say goodnight Hon - meds are kicking in quicker than I expected tonight. Hope to catch up with you again soon - enjoy the rest of your break in Brisbane

That’s really good to hear about you’re plan @Zoe7

You won’t know how you made it but you have! It’s really nice to hear about what you have in mind for the future.

I get a bit like that too, the plan feels messy, like it isn’t going to happen but then someway or another stuff works out. It takes time -a long time. It will all happen for you.

I am trying to do bit by bit. I need to purchase a laptop soon for graphics with my course next year -so looking forward to that happening. I have almost completed our house back home so all the pieces are coming together. I printed out a lot of photos whilst here, I haven’t slept in my own bed for some time now -when I go home it’s all going to be there so that is something I am looking forward to. I may even put some candles on & have a few glasses of wine 🙂 Should be amazing! @Zoe7

Good night @Zoe7 take care xx

I think your plans for when you get home sound wonderful @Former-Member

How has your day been today? I have had a rest day and am feeling okay tonight. I am going to try for an early night but will see how the evening unfolds first. Both of my fur babies are inside - we have snow on the mountain here and it is very cold but I have the heater on a my place is cosy

Hey @Zoe7

Yeah, Lots to sort out when back. Our day has been good, have you had a good day relaxing? That actually sounds really nice right now with the snow 😍

Not sure whether you are back home or not yet @Former-Member but hoped you have had a great holiday and thinks at home that you needed to sort out are working out for you

Hey @Zoe7

thanks yeah we are back, feeling a bit emotional but pushing through it. Gotta keep going how are you going?
