This is for yesterday. Monday 11 December.
For some reason I could get in last night but it wouldn't accept my post.
School holidays can be stressful. Today was a good example. I ended up thinking my blood pressure’s going up, and doing some deep breathing while I was preparing dinner. (It helped a lot). In the morning I wasted time trying for ages to do something on the computer that I didn't achieve, and then lost over an hour to delousing my girl’s hair. Then the worst bits were worrying that I had already bought the wrong computer for my son and trying to find out about upgrading it which makes me feel ignorant and stupid anyway, while I was also feeling guilty and that was making it harder to think straight. Then my son rang up (husband: “He wants to speak to you”.), to say his bike has been stolen. Second one in three months. So then my husband is wanting to act cool about the bike but actually still angry....
It was a crumby day. Still it's just ordinary crumby, not really a disaster.
I wasn't seriously thinking about breaking my plan, but I can still feel the bogey woman nearby ready to say “Give it up, it’s too much trouble, hide out here…….”
Walked the 30 minute route – a bit more slowly I think, concentrating on enjoying it. Those sheoaks are great. I swear it’s like they talk to me. Relaaaax. Relaaaax..
