Greetings all!
It’s been very hard for me to pull myself out of this “depression” that I’ve been in since last week. For some reason I’ve been affected quite badly, and find it hard to move on. But life doesn’t stop when we do, and obligations call.
I had a reasonably good weekend. I managed to finalise the wedding invitations last week, so they’ll be going out soon. I had my hairdresser come over on Saturday so we all got to try out our “do’s” for the big day. It’s very exciting!
I didn’t get to exercise, and I’m finding it hard to get the energy. I think it’s also TOM coming that’s tiring me out. However, I’ve got my clothes at work and I’m going to go for a really long walk at lunch time. The sun’s out, and some fresh air will do me good.
Eating wise, god only knows!
I think it wasn’t too bad, and I tried to keep track, but no journalling, so at the end of the day I’ve got no idea! But back onto that too.
I’m feeling very flat today. I’m hoping this walk and some light healthy food will perk me up.
One of the hardest things about what happened last week is how it’s affecting the children. There’s been a big debate here about how much we should let our kids see, and how to explain it to then, and protect them. Now they’re saying that kids under 9 years shouldn’t watch any of it because of how it will affect then psychologically. Nice for them to tell us that now - bit late! However, should we shield them from something that has such a huge impact on everyone? Isn’t it better for them to know that it’s a sad time and we have to be careful to respect and listen to others? Anyway, Josh had a bad dream last night about monsters taking him away from us, and ended up spending the night in our bed, and now I’m worried that it’s got to him more than I thought. It’s so difficult to know what’s the right thing to do.
Shasta, well done on keeping up your exercise and program!
Rose I hope you're okay = haven't heard from you in a while!
Have a great day everyone, and I’ll talk to you later.
