Am Not Coping

Re: Am Not Coping

Morning @Zoe7 .... 💚💐💕👋

Re: Am Not Coping

@Faith-and-Hope and all passing through...

I slept early so was up early. I still feel very tired though and expect to sleep again sometime today. Today is going to be much like yesterday - just a day to get through. I will have to deal with tomorrow when it comes - definitely not looking forward to it at all.

What are your plans for today Hon?

Re: Am Not Coping

Maybe keep the blind pulled down on tomorrow for now @Zoe7, and stay in this space .....

 

I am working on assignments this morning till lunchtime, then will take a break and meet D3-Visual in the city for some things we didn’t finish sorting yesterday, and one that came up last night .... which means lots morn walking again today.  I covered 10km yesterday ......

 

Then more assignment work in the afternoon, and packing a case to send west with my lot, who are leaving here earlier than my uni finish.

Re: Am Not Coping

wow 10km is a lot @Faith-and-Hope and more to cover today Smiley Surprised

You certainly have a busy day ahead and I agree that I need to try to just be in the moment today and deal with tomorrow when it comes - not easy to do though. I am going to try to cook lunch today nd I need to get to the shop so they are 2 things I can try to get done. The weather is still pretty dismal here so picking the right time to go out will be tricky...and I will have to get out of my jammies which I also don't feel like doing Smiley Sad

I hope you get a lot done today Hon - having your assignment work to complete will definitely keep you occupied - goodluck with it all @Faith-and-Hope Heart

Re: Am Not Coping

Thanks @Zoe7 .... 

 

I have made the executive decision to stay in my jammies today .... lol .... but they resemble street clothes well enough that I can get away with it.

 

Weather is still rainy here @Zoe7, but due to ease off by the middle of the day, so it will be about timing for me too.

Re: Am Not Coping

I didn't get out of my jammies yesterday either but considering how I was feeling it isn't surprising @Faith-and-Hope I will change later but I can't be bothered having a shower Smiley Sad I only need to go to one supermarket to get a couple of things - I was hoping it would wait until tomorrow but it is probably better for me to get out of the house today - even if it is for a little while.

I need to get a little housework done as well and Toby needs a haircut but I am not sure I have enough energy to do all that today - will get the shopping done and see how I go - getting out might help me get to the other things that need doing.

Do you think you will get your assignments completed today?

Re: Am Not Coping

If you can bring yourself to go out, a little fresh air will probably do you good @Zoe7 .....:

 

No, the assignments won’t be finished today, unless I throw everything I have at one of them .... which actually, I am tempted to do ..... hmmmm.  It is frustrating to keep breaking off in the process of working in an artwork, and seeing it sitting there has me itching to do the next part, then the next ..... so from here I might do that - work on one at a time till it’s completed.

 

Thanks 😊👍

Re: Am Not Coping

Sometimes we need to just concentrate on one thing and see it completed to have the motivation to do everything that needs to be done @Faith-and-Hope If you throw everything at one you will probbly find you are getting it done quicker than you anticipated as well - I find that when I concentrate on one thing at s time. I hope you do get a lot done today Hon and that you also enjoy your time out with Visual Smiley Very Happy

Re: Am Not Coping

It was taking the projects in to the studio classes, and then having to put the one down to take in the next, or throw myself behind a submission, that was keeping me from staying with a project until complete @Zoe7, but that is not my situation today, or for most of the rest of the week, so I think that is what I will do .... and enjoy it more this way, and yes, probably move through it faster too.
