I was just about to write to you here, when I saw your post. Great minds think alike! Lol.
I got home last night and Dog and Abbey went nuts seeing me. So lots of pats and cuddles from me and lots of licking and jumping all over me from them. Max is still at my best friends.
Appears dog broke into my bedroom at some point during my hospital stay. The night before hospital I struggled but managed to put clean sheets on the bed. Didn't put a cover on the doona though. Came home to find black Labrador hairs all through my bed. Was so tired, I didn't care and just climbed in and slept anyway.
Doona almost ready to be hung up and dried in front of the heater. Sheets about to go in the wash. Lol. What a welcome home.
My son is still at mums/sisters. I'm still not in the right head space to have to tackle being a sole parent just yet. And mum tells me he doesn't want to come home with me yet. Ouch! But understandable.
I'm taking things really easy and slow at the moment. I'm on the wait list for an earlier appointment - but will see my psychologist Friday week.
I'm going to call the AA leader who runs the program in our town later tonight and have a chat with him. Any support in that direction would be helpful.
I'm not sure if I will go to meditation class tonight. I told the teacher I can't physically meditate at the moment. She suggested if I feel up to if I might like to come and simply sit in the room and may feel some support that way. They have lighted a special candle for me on the days I've been too unwell to attend.
Enough about me. Have you posted any images of any of your recent work - even if not finished? I saw f&h mentioned something about it.
How are you traveling? I saw you bought a few necessities to house your art / school supplies in. Have only read the odd post while in hospital. So I think I need you to fill me in.
Absolutely love the garden in the octagonal room. Could we name it The Tranquil Garden? That's what I think and feel when I saw it.
How are Cat and Toby? Behaving I hope. Has your tiredness settled down yet- from the meds?
Have so missed you my gentle butterfly.♥♥
