Hey @AuntGlow
Work was roughs I did go to the Christmas party for a couple of hours though, that was an achievement. Especially coming off nightshift and only getting 30 minutes sleep. I did leave early as it was all getting too much.
I’ve just worked hard all weekend. Saturday I weeded my overgrown garden beds and that took hours. Plus a lot of stuff to start getting ready my house ready for Christmas. Sunday I did mum and dad’s lawn plus more stuff for Christmas. Today I have pushed so hard. I’ve bathed the dogs, changed my bed linen, mown the lawns, dusted the whole house and cleaned the inside of all the windows in my house.
The only thing that I did do as self care was I had a bath today to try and stop some of the pain in my body.
I don’t know what to do. I haven’t done self care in weeks, I don’t know how to look after myself. I’ve just been focused on going the whole time that me and my body haven’t mattered.
Maybe we can unpack some if it. Maybe she is able to help, but I also have to focus on the surgery and meds and mood changes involved with that. That feels overwhelming just typing it. She is in for a ride tomorrow! Lucky she booked this in on her days off.
That sounds like a nice Christmas. I don’t think I have sat and watch a movie with my parents since I was a really little kid. I was always sent to bed or told what I wanted to watch was silly. I’m really envious of people that have good relationships with their family. I won’t even get a text message from my brother or my niece.
