Sleeping too much

..say hi to the dolphins for me @Faith-and-Hope , I got to see 'my' dogs, well with their grumpy new guard dog in semi finished house neighbour. Got to see a train even. Usually not been up early enough recently re warmer weather and walking

well, @Faith-and-Hope was thinking poss no show at aging parents interstate at xmas, have work the week after and possibly the week after that as well.. with old work .. so may have to put a smile on dial and suck it up lol. Not going to beat self up re not working for so long , well the 'no-show' job got cold feet on is still advertising if that's any indication of how good that job was or wasn't lol Well then a few sorta half hearted attempts at other applications, then health stuff, getting stuck to lounge etc .. Just have to accept it, but with an eye on what I could do differently in future.

..then get head around seeing siblings, what's left of parents etc etc will get there

And hope you getting along okay, congrats re weddings, graduations etc and hope you have a good Holiday

Hi stranger @Former-Member yeah, you'll get used to it if do it more often re swims(says me) lol ..with me was cos hadnt done it in forever, did feel like a different person in chair at barbers yest tho, so one whole swim seems to have done something for posture/muscle tension already lol

..take it easy on self re partner, arguing is normal, just depends on how you deal with it, well you know that, life ain't constant conflctless Shangri La .. and you do carry a lot of the load re kids etc .. stuff happens ..and thinking it through isn't necessarily a bad thing, well so long as its not just the one person doing it ..try some of @Former-Member 's pilates stretches re back maybe, the one where push shoulders up then lengthen spine forward while on tum seems to work wonders for me re upper back tension..

yeah, steady as she goes re work, will try not to overthink it and do what it takes to get through.

Your Dad is special to you, sounds

er work monday, so that means not much sunday, just being kind to self, surviving heat re sunday. Today and tomorrow a few walks and dip in pool maybe, and get a few things together re next week, am going away to camp til sat morning oh, and cricket ..sorry .. lol

Have a Good Day, you

@Faith-and-Hope ..yeah, there's a few jigsaws scattered all over floor, going to sweep them up and put it in the bin. Going to reboot to earlier version re me. Yes, said it before ages ago, but auto pilot seems to work, its just re setting it and turning it on again and thanks for sage thoughts again

That was an unusually long & thoughtful post for you @TAB

@Former-Member & @Former-Member I want to look at schema therapy more .. in time .. I like that it is from de Nederlands. Makes me feel it is likely to fit me and I am big on causes and sources.

The Dutchies have developed an amazing Dementia Village ... where they apparently can cook & shop and are less demented than seemed at first ... hmmm .... I wonder if it has anything to do with an over-reliance on medical models for life issues that are not strictly medical .. but I wont rave on.

I was talking about Beethoven's Song of Joy last night. The last page of As are brutal for the tenors.

Yay Freude @Former-Member and lets try and stay away from the dark side .. unless of course its time to draw the curtains and get some proper sleep.

No need to split dictionary hairs .. been there done that .. most effectively.
