Re: Sleeping too much

Yeah, Joyce Meyer has a whole audio seminar teaching series on "the spirit of offence" I think its roots are in low self esteem and rejection, approval addiction and validation. Basically - not enough praise growing up. With self compassion I'm slowly learning to meet these needs myself, with God, so it matters less and less what pple do. If that makes any sense

Just worked up a good sweat in the garden - digging, weeding, secateur prunibg. Do you think that replaces going for a walk, maybe, probably, hope so? Got heart rate up for an hour, WOR me out. Have this giant cactus with growth around it, its massive - its un a big pot. Cleared away the neglected growth around it but wow, i couldn't get it to even budge or tilt or move at all. A pomegranate has sprung up in front if it, blocking the sun so I wanted to drag it at least a meter but might have to try something else, toe it out with the car maybe. Its a big round covered in 2" spikes - one went through my leather shoe - ouch. Anyway, that's in the think tank. Someone said don't drop it or it will burst open like a watermelon, hmm can't have that. Wish I thought to enter it in the show here this weekend. Must take a photo to post here.

The whole idea of going in the yard was to clear the lawn for mowing - hmm, got sidetracked - maybe tomorrow. still a bit of twigs and projects laying about I don't want caught up in the blades. Need to poison too - never ending, but good for us.

Re: Sleeping too much

Bit sad and worried about my son who blasted me in a tx Thu - told him to back off, he hasn't responded to checkins since, frightens me that I might lose him too. He seems so angry and it seems I can't get much right. Guess I need to give him even more space. Its wrong, and so hard.

Bro4 did tx today, asking for details of a new drug they're adding to his schizophrenia treatment, its an anticonvulsant - now, on top of his antipsychotic inj. Gosh, surprised he's not a zombie. Especially self medicating on strong otc opiate headache pills and weeed. What to do? And to think he still drives a V8 and does more to help mum and dad than any other family member. He has heart. Drugs & MI stole his family & happiness, its sad.

Soooooo quiet here today. Don't get TV reception, radio is mostly sports on the weekend grr, and my DVD player broke a while back. Bit sick of the movies on my laptop. Probably a good thing cause listening we can still do things, not just sit and stare all consumed. Use to be my escape which is why I'm going with the flow of the universe (Gods current will for me) in taking them away. Good thing I'm a bit broke of late too. Funally unpacked my bag from Sydney trip (wish it was a cruise (mum's upset my sis is on a cruise for 3wks but can't come visit mum when she was in hospital recently - strange she complains but the she said she mailed them a bon-voyage gift, weird).

Just put the kettle on and some good music. Lost all my fav things taking on a family, a crap hubby & controlling chches. Couldnt see it, just wanted to 'fit in', be the best mum ect. Never worked anyway, stuff em! I'm taking back all my favourite things again.

Found this CD system with great little speakers. The best I've had in years. Put it in an easy to get to place (non cluttered space) and going through my CDs. They say a decluttering key is not to keep anything in the house that doesn't bring joy or beauty. So, that's my focus this year - cull, cull, cull, or is it k, hmm, anyway, just saying hi peeps lol

Hi @Appleblossom, I see you about, how ya going?

Re: Sleeping too much

Haha, you're a scream @TAB, power nap, wireals, storms, baby dragons all tied in there somehow. Are you done now with the job for a bit? Having a break? What's your plans, anything exciting?

@faith-and-hope, nothing like smuggling up in bed listening to a storm. Do you have a tin roof? I do and a veranda and it's lovely. I like that earthy smell when the rain first hits the fine dust after lots of dry. Hey, do you think WA new gov will do a good job? Not sure if they were in before - maybe Pauline scared voters off liberal. What did you do today. Might just duck (corrected from 'f' - how embarrassing), duck over F&A & catch up xox
