    Also glad you have booked some time. Boundary protection sounds like a thing here.

    Fab news on the tax rebate :j

    Glad you've booked yourself a break, something to look forward to.

    Text the crush and say let's have a catch up, treat him to a drink from your rebate. Act now or regret it later :)
    I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping) -.literally have been run over by a bike, mobility scooter and a car - still here 💪

    89 days is a long time in other ways though. Can you book a day out a month so you have something set every few weeks?


    Yes text the crush :D


    And also yes prioritise the rooms you spend time in - it makes the most of it if you have limited effort to spare, and spending time in the tidier rooms means you feel better and more able to do the rest. For me, anyway - the bedroom and bathroom always get done before anything else.

  • I did the bathroom and attempted to sort the room. I think I am too depressed. I honestly don't care at this point. I don't want to go work tomorrow. I am tired of being there and wish I had given my notice in feb.

    I spoke to, texted the crush. I am doubtful now, I honestly think he views the whole experience so negatively and he made a comment about me being older than him (four years) and that massively bothered me. It is odd, we are definitely in the same place in our lives, wishing we had a house and a long term relationship/kids but something is putting me off.

    Weird.

    Any how, I don't know how to be happy at the moment. I think I just need to get tomorrow over with, I am stressing about work way too much.
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Yes, that sounds like plan of action needed. A babysteps plan though, with anti-burnout nurturing stops built in.



    Massive eye roll at the age thing... and if your intuition is backing off then fair enough, energy is better spent on finding a better crush :D
