Hi @Faith-and-Hope, @CheerBear
I woke to a phone call today telling me my appointment tomorrow with the psychologist was postponed for a week. I didn’t take that too well but am getting over it a bit now. I missed my appointment with my therapist but that’s ok. I am on holding pattern :face_with_rolling_eyes:. @Faith-and-Hope I suspect after years of being in holding patter you are way ahead of the curve on this one.
@CheerBear How are you going? You’ve been quiet too. Did friend end up coming over?
Im trying to pull myself together as I took antihistamines last night that knock me out but I did sleep and slept well. I’m only just finding human now but feel like I could sleep another 10 hours. I have a whingey dog next to me and it’s raining here so he’ll have to whinge a bit longer until I can go to the park with him.

Yeah @Teej .... holding patterns really suck .....
The only answer I have is to keep busy with (positive) other stuff and “have a day” ..... each day .....
Get up in the morning and sketch in a day ..... make bed ..... eat something .... wash something .... fold something .... clean something ..... go shopping for that night’s diner stuff (gets you out of the house) ..... run an errand while you’re out .... come home and cook .... throw a shower in there somewhere ......
If you’re having an okay day, do something for you - but a new plant, go for a walk, have a coffee out, call a friend.
Just keep having a day and ignore the problem that’s on hold as much as you can while you can’t do anything about it anyway.
Hugs n hugs @Teej ❤️
She might have worked out that she’s only got half of the story and is going back to the drawing board.

Hi @CheerBear
I’m having a nest day today. Feeling a little cheated. I had a friend message me to see if I would like to go to a movie today and I passed because of the appointment 😬. However I’m not sure I’d be up for it either.
What is your day shaping up like?
