Re: Morning has broken

Thank you @rav3n  I am ok just finishing the junk cupboard clean up. It’s taken most of the week and been very confronting facing the memories that were stored in there.

 

What are you doing today?

Re: Morning has broken

ooft that sounds both physically and emotionally exhausting @Eve7 glad it's almost done now! how's your weekend plans looking? 

 

today i have an appt, then my sister's picking up my car (i got ceramic coating done for it) and bringing it home - bit nervous to see it, i'm hoping the car place has done a good job. might go to bed a bit earlier today, need to catch up on some sleep!

Re: Morning has broken

It’s been very emotionally draining as I had all h’s medical records stored in there @rav3n and today I found my brother in law’s su…cide note. Just taking a break now as it’s become too hard.

 

I have a 50th birthday to attend tomorrow so something to look forward to. An early night here also.

Re: Morning has broken

that makes a lot of sense, finding those medical records and the note sounds really heavy - take as many breaks as you need @Eve7 sending you gentle hugs 💙

 

50th sounds nice, hope you have a fun time! is it a big gathering? 

Re: Morning has broken

I don’t know how many will be attending @rav3n 

 

Trying hard to finish this cupboard today but it’s so overwhelming. My sh is having a win today.

Re: Morning has broken

i'm so sorry that the SH is strong today @Eve7 you're doing the best you can, i hope you can be extra kind to yourself today.

 

would ringing a helpline while you work through the cupboard be helpful?

 

sitting with you.

Re: Morning has broken

Possibly might help @rav3n  but I need to push through and get this job done today.

Re: Morning has broken

feel free to use the forums as your break space too @Eve7 

 

sometimes when i'm feeling a lot but need something to quickly boost my mood so i can continue with my original task/plan, i hop onto threads like What has been your highlight today, no matter how no matter how big or small or Welcome to the smile zone! for a couple mins

 

got my fingers crossed that the cupboard gets done today!! but if it doesn't, it will be okay too. we'll support you through it

Re: Morning has broken

Hugs @Eve7 🤗 my thoughts are with you as you continue to sort through that cupboard. A difficult task indeed 💕

 

Hi @Snowie 👋

Re: Morning has broken

Thanks @Emelia8 there was far more triggering content than I realised. Just found a note written by gd1 to Papa in heaven on his birthday 😢

 

Just the games on the top shelf to throw out now. They hold many happy memories too.
