Far and Away

Re: Far and Away

Hi @Faith-and-Hope 🌻

Re: Far and Away

Thanks @Former-Member

 

I think I must have had a lapse of some kind - at least I know I did

Re: Far and Away

Well ... the peace was short-lived .....

WH just had a giant melt-down cos he mis-communicated that he wanted us (S2 and I) to move D1's stored, carefully stacked, stuff into that studio space "for now" .... and he had asked me to find some screens to screen it off with, so in effect he was doing what he has done with the loft space that was supposed to be my studio originally ..... and that is: studio =
junk storage space as well ..... so just did an instant 0 to 100km/h and told me I'm not having that studio space after all .... :face_with_rolling_eyes::face_with_rolling_eyes::face_with_rolling_eyes:

So ..... I told him D1's stuff is carefully stacked there, including valuable, delicate items and wedding paraphernalia, until they have a home where it will fit (unit they are in is nowhere near big enough, and he told her she could store it where it is for as long as she liked ....!) so I was reluctant to move it. but have eased it back far enough that he can fit the car in that he wanted to park there .....

He asked me whether I REALLY needed to go out this afternoon, indicating that he wants to do a no-warning blitz clean-up of the whole garage space, which there is no way I am up for ..... so I said that yes, I REALLY needed to go out, and have fled for a massage ..... feeling so knocked around, and know that the massage will fix that ..... then will pick up dinner stuff and go back home.

Argh !! Roller-coaster ......

I will see where things are at when I get back ..... and take it from there .....

Re: Far and Away

I think it will be short-lived @Former-Member ..... I have text him what I wanted to say calmly that he would not have been able to stop and listen to, but even with giant type on his phone he is having trouble reading text ..., but he will want to know what I have to say .... lol .... so will probably get one of the kids to read it to him, and it will make sense to them.

He wants what he was originally setting up re the studio space .... it was just a mega-tanty to have it done his way,, and now ..... as in "yesterday" .... so once he has calmed down, parked the damn car where he wanted to, read the damn text to see that I am suggesting D1 pack her things into archive boxes - which will then fit neatly into the storage cupboards in the studio space - and then her desk that it's all sitting on can be returned to her room in the house ..... by the time I go home again he will be out for his jog and I will have my head space back together.

And tomorrow is another day ...... 💜

Re: Far and Away

Oh wow you're good @Faith-and-Hope 💜. Want to know how that scenario would have panned out for me and all the big emotions I would have felt 😳😳😳 and then reacted to 😳😳😳

Still sending love and hugs which I forgot to in my first post as I was reacting :face_with_rolling_eyes:💜🤗💐

Re: Far and Away

Hi @Faith-and-Hope A quick visit to send you all my love...

 

Re: Far and Away

Thanks @Former-Member @Zoe7 ..... I'll be okay with this massage ..., it will draw all the tension back out of my muscles, and it's Han touch of a different sort, probably supportive of my empath needs .... hadn't really thought about it before, but the same way I absorb other's emotions, a massage is probably a way for me to release that emotion again through massage touch ..... interesting ......

Saw you there @Kurra ..... is this sort of cr@p behaviour sounding familiar to you ?

Re: Far and Away

Okay .... got an text back from WH that didn't make sense as a response to my text, but it was calm ..... second response indicated that the studio plan will go ahead .....

"Crisis" apparently defused for the moment .....
