Re: Sleeping too much

I must admit small earphones go in my phone to listen on spotify at times . It's a good strategy @Faith-and-Hope 😂

Re: Sleeping too much

Yes @Faith-and-Hope and @Former-Member

We all need to be selectively deaf at times - it can be so hard to listen to the grrrrrsssss etc

My son was 3 when I got a referral to a child psychatrist - in the spaces betweeb tantrums I would try and ignore it - he couldn't help himself either - ah well -

But...................yesterday I was talking to my case worker and I told her that I had a piano keyboard and she got anxious and asked if I could play it with earphones

What? This I will not do - I consider all the other noise around here - I was confused now annoyed.

There are worse things than playing the piano - what does she think I am doing - enabling an electronic rock band at 3.00 am

Playing my piano with earphones is not going to happen

Back later when I have calmed down a bit

Oops, apologies @Faith-and-Hope, nodded off and only just found you again. Are you OK? Anniversaries can be hard. But you went walking first thing, you're amazing. Just a quick hi while I catch up on the 11 posts (yes, eleven)

@Former-Member, opening wounds can hurt, be gentle with yourself precious. I have my monthly apt next wk, was teary myself last time. There's a scripture verse about sorrow, or tears, Found it: "Godly sorrow brings change that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings destruction" 2Corinthians 7"

Back soon

Yeah @Former-Member .... 💐

It's been 15 years .... and somehow time dulls the pain into a bitter-sweetness ..... 💕

It's been a bit surreal but my journey on the forums this year have shown me how much of my mum's ethos has carried through with me ... when I am writing a response I can hear echoes of her manner and thought processes underwriting mine .... so "hi"
from my mum today everybody .... 😏

Raining here. Had the best sleep.Actually had a real dream, a new one would you believe.. and still remember bits of it lol

Small 'ticks' here @Faith-and-Hope as in short walk, well beat the rain anyway..

Still some 'fine tuning' needed with Centrelink have found out, but it's fixable and am in system at least. Hi @Former-Member @Former-Member plus anyone else around

Re: Sleeping too much

Good to hear @TAB ....

I find it encouraging to put ticks on the board ... helps to realise just what baby steps we are getting through day by day .... and walking is sooo good for keeping emotions steady .... best medicine !
