Its a hard life, DT absolutely nothing done the last few days on my own garden, except watering

Hmm, not a huge amount to write today - I have 3 hours of paid work, which is nice, tho it will also have attached a fair bit of unpaid work. I have to go collect my diary from the post office where I accidentally left it. I have to phone my mum this evening. I was going to go to Sainsbury's, but at the moment I can't really be bothered - still recovering from facing demons yesterday.

Be kind to yourself today and 3 hours paid work is good even if it does come with things attached

Hope you can retrieve the diary OK and feel better after yesterday.. try taking it out on some weeds if you get a minute

Thanks DT, thanks Squizz - you know, I'd completely forgotten about the word "kind" .... and I'd never even *thought* of acting out the nightmare scenario on the weeds, how clever!

I appreciate both your comments, very, very much. :kisses3::kisses3:

Today ended up being not bad at all Diary was at the PO - they didn't want any ID before they gave it to me, but at least I got it . The work didn't have very much unpaid stuff attached to it after all. My mum didn't *particularly* want to talk, so I got away with half an hour And I've stopped feeling sick :j

I didn't do the garden in the end, but after I'd finished work, I was really pleased with what I did do - put the w/m on to clean all the scarves that had dust and baby spiders in (I shook them into the garden first, I promise), got the cordless screwdriver out and hung a few things up, found more stuff to charitize. I rearranged stuff on the first floor too, so the time was really worthwhile - every time I spend an hour on this kind of thing, the house gets more manageable. I like that

Baby steps KC. You don't need to rush at everything, and sometimes you *do* see something for your efforts, and it makes it all worth while.

Thanks Gill - yes, it did! I positively felt I was getting over it, and the little things I did made a real difference, it was nice to see

Perhaps one related to the other?
- Do we all feel this relieved when our mothers let us off the hook? - Last weekend mine had to run off to her club's meeting and I was soooooooooo happy to be set free from the weekly conversation! - lol
