hello my sister @Healandlove
sugar levels are still fairly high
sorry that you are stressed at work 😍
we had a wet drive to the city and back today
ended up early for my CT Scan appointment and they put me in early which was nice
had lunch in the city before a wet drive home
nearly involved in a car accident (the other cars fault cutting in front of us) gave them a beep of the horn
Mr. Shaz has volunteered our place for Christmas dinner this year (talking to his daughter)
at home feeling very tired
have a lovely cup of tea and read a book later tonight sounds very nice @Healandlove

Thanks for the welcome @Shaz51
I'm sitting at about a 6 this morning.
I've been struggling with fatigue and low energy and I'm doing well to pause and use breathing techniques to recalibrate.
Currently taking in the morning sun with a cup of tea and my local magpies. Being in nature is my favourite way to soothe.

@rav3n thank you for your empathy.
Work is stressful at the moment so the only thing that was OK in my life is now another source of worry. But I am hoping I can ride it out.
I'm reading "Welcome to the Hyunam-d*ng Bookshop: a novel" it's good, slow and gentle.
Do you like reading? I'm always looking for good book recommendations ☺️

Hi everyone! I am brand new here, trying to find like minded people and a safe place to express myself.
1) How are you feeling?
Currently I am about a 4. Masking currently is not easy and my chest is heavy.
2) What is one thing you have struggled with, and one thing you have done well?
Me and my bf are not together at the moment due to a bad episode (relapse) wo that is very hard for me right now. One thing im happy about is i just started a mood stabilizer so i am looking forward to that.
3) What is one nice thing you can do for yourself today?
I went to the gym and let myself enjoy a piece of cake!
