Am Not Coping

Re: Am Not Coping

Cool - I'll get onto it over the weekend - so many ideas, so much to organise - I suggest the party should take place on top of a beautiful mountain - we could all walk there together and then we can add in our walk for the day lol @Shaz51

Re: Am Not Coping

...looking for you @Faith-and-Hope and missing you Hon 🌹💜💕

Re: Am Not Coping

It’s been a very full, crazy day @Zoe7 ..... D1 is a designer and has been showing me through a lot of different stuff, helping me to work out how to proceed with moving. 

Add D3 cutting her foot open, and dropping and breaking her favourite teacup .... and a maintenance guy having to come and service some equipment at the house .... and running errands in between .... and I am now taking some time on the forums to find myself again, a bit, before hopefully sleeping more than I have been .... but the world has to stop spinning as hard as it is before that can happen ..... 

Slowing down gradually here.  I just got kicked out of D3’s room where I was hiding out with her as she cleaned up .... and I had dozed off before.

Have probably missed you tonight, but you will be up ahead of me tomorrow in any case ....

Hugs 💚💐🌷💕

Re: Am Not Coping

It definitely seems like you had a full on day yesterday @Faith-and-Hope I hope after such a hectic day you have had some sleep. How did D3 manage to cut her foot?

I waited up as long as my eyes would stay open for you but was well and truly asleep when you posted - hope to catch you some time today though Hon. Heart

Re: Am Not Coping

Morning @Zoe7 .... 👋💕

D3 missed a small piece of the broken teacup in the clean up ..... then found it with / in her foot.  Ouch.

It took me a while to get to sleep.  I watched how-to art videos to distract,  it was one of what will be many confronting days.  There would be joy in it, except at its core it’s not voluntary ..... but that’s what it is, and we are trying to make it something beautiful.  The new place has some issues that need fixing, which is an opportunity to spruce it into a better match with our incoming furniture, but there are many challenges, sacrifices, adaptions and compromises to make, and if I try to take them all in at once it will be too much for me, as D1 quickly realised, not without some heatedly debated communications .... I can’t take much push at the moment ..... and there will be more of that .... and a trip away at the end of the year which will be of the same joy / sorrow blend.

Baby steps is the order of the day.  I am dropping one sister to another this morning, then heading to church myself.

Re: Am Not Coping

Morning @Faith-and-Hope@Zoe7@Shaz51@Snowie@Sans911 how have your mornings been so far 

Re: Am Not Coping

Goll-ee - it does sound full on @Faith-and-Hope and a real challenge

 

I take it this is new furniture and not another move - but still - it seems you do so much of the planning and I am sorry about D3's foot - it happens - it's not good and adds to the stress

 

I am not sure what it is all about - what is actually happening - I lose track of things at times and in the case I have

 

But I am sending my best thoughts - and wondering if I still have those pink flowers

 

Dec

 And I think I am over-doing itAnd I think I am over-doing it

Yes - I have oneYes - I have oneand I can copy itand I can copy itAbit confusing with the pink flowers - I didn't sleep well - that's my excuse for today

 

 

Re: Am Not Coping

@Zoe7 I read back some posts seems the school is giving you rhe run around quite a bit and a shame your doctors are away

Re: Am Not Coping

Morning @Owlunar I can't keep up either with @Faith-and-Hope what is happening

Re: Am Not Coping

Hi @Owlunar .....

 

Yeah, it’s a new move ..... selling our home in the west and moving it’s contents into a new not-house-and-garden living space, for the frequent times we are coming and going from here ..... including the weekly interstate work mr.f&h is investing himself in.  

 

Changes and more changes ..... baby-stepping myself in that direction .... not with any great speed or enthusiasm ..... but it will all happen with time, tears and effort .... and it is a worthwhile decision, all things considered.
