Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Good morning @Determined .....👋 ..... and anyone else stopping by here today.

Sort of @Determined .....

After working so hard to put the house into fast order as a home, to settle S2 and D3 (and hopefully D2 in the process) as quickly as possible ...... the house has now been flooded by the entire contents of another home that we owned in another state, that got packed up and stored. Now mr. has decided that we can’t keep paying the fees on the storage unit, and NOW is the time to sort out what we are keeping and what we are giving away. Any attempt to argue th point will result in huge reactions and threats to just pack up and leave (some have already been made in response to the kids missing classes and D3 succumbing to a new round of illness).

So we can hardly move in the place.

I am waiting I hear back from a women’s refuge to see if they can take bedding for 12 beds (the previous home was an extended family share place) some of them doubles. That is probably the worst of the “clutter invasion”.

S2 is hardly coming out df his room because of the confronting amount of stuff ......

I am escaping the house, only returning to put a few more quilts into quilt covers or pillows into pillow cases and towels into bags.

D3 is more or less staying in bed anyway, and mr. is more out than not with his exercise and driving-half-an-hour-for-coffee 2x a day anyway ......

So yeah ..... our new status quo ..... laugh or cry ...... and I am okay-ish. Life could be worse ......

Having a bit of a bad day today, I'm in a capital city and saw someone from the town I just moved from. I don't think he saw me but now I've convinced myself that if he is here then my ex boyfriend must be aswell and I'm not ready to see him yet. My heart is racing and I feel a bit sick, feel like my weekend is ruined

That’s the contradiction we are living at seemingly all levels @Determined @soul ......

Thank God for the forums and hot chocolate, huh ?
