Checking in daily to maintain focus #10

Day 259.

Our Governor said the Stay Home order is extended to 4/20. Workload has been steady, so that’s comforting, but definitely not taking anything for granted at this point. Nose to the grindstone at all times. Glad I have a large collection of bandanas, since it looks like they’re going to be a part of my attire for grocery runs for the foreseeable future.

Have a strong day!!!

Another day went by. I forgot how being love sick feels… I am grieving so much. and as it comes and goes in waves when the wave goes up, the thoughts of picking up also rise. I managed to stay with them and ride thw waves for today. Had hours of phone calls with hospitals and doctors. preparing all for after the crisis. try and remind myself that these things now I can do with patience and attention because I do not over tire myself with the dog walking. trying to see the reason of this painful decision. even typing this now makes me angry with grief. I miss him so much, I think I miss him for all the feelings of grieving a loved one I succesfuly buried deep within me. It is ok to miss him so much and I made the decision based on the need to take care of my health, no mater how much it hurts. If I could I would have decided other way. I have to keep reminding myself over and over again

Sorry to hear your down Jane. If it were me I would take some time to myself, lay down in a dark room, throw on some good music and imagine I was travelling the country in that VW van, I’m so jealous of the van!:rofl:

Hope you find some time to try and reset. Definitely sucks to hit that wall, never fun. Hope you start feeling better soon.

Omg be a few more chunks before i dare show pictures. But will take some tomorrow as not alot of difference despite such hard work. But i can tell. 5 or 6 years ago was lovely but lost interest and its so neglected. Need new furniture but that will have to wait until i am working again. But plenty to sort and its so small!

Yes agree not worth tackling until your head is in it. I painted my door cards on saturday on my van looks better but needs a couple more coats. Attending a virtual camp out this sat for our NHS nurses doctors a fundraiser ! Some friends are doing it as well so will use a sharing party app.

Hope you feel better tomorrow keep strong:)
