Relaxing, and productive. Had a slow morning, then got down to two hours of work on my writing this afternoon. Finally feel as if I've made some progress after struggling to see a solution for the past month. Going to spend the rest of the day reading as a reward.
Found out more about my dad's divorce from my step mom from my step sister. Not good news. What do you do when you find out your dad is a bad character? This after my therapy appointment where we determined my dad has more influence over my self esteem than what I should allow. My sister said she couldn't tell me everything because she didn't want to mess up the divorce for her mom. I understood. Still he's my dad. He's all I have left. My mom died four years ago today. This is all just disconcerting. I took an extra seroquel to help me sleep. I'm going to need it.
It was a blur for the most part. I had difficulty concentrating and dissociated for a short while on several occasions. I've been slipping, but my friend helped me get back for a large part. Hoping tomorrow will be better.
I got up and did a 30 minute body scan, then I did a semi supine. Then I did some breathing. After that I took the dog out for a short ten minute walk.
Today went better. During the day I stayed home and watched 2 movies in my pjs. I worked in the evening, but it went quite well. Tomorrow I intend to sleep in, do some light studying and go to the gym.
Anniversaries are difficult Britt and I sure feel for the great loss of your mom. Hang in there. You will get through these rocky times. Hugs.
My day was balanced with responsibilities and some fun stuff as well. I have new movies to watch tonight. I have had a good day and I am very proud of myself for balancing everything in a healthy manner. Now if I could only get to talk to the girls on the phone and I wish my daughter would call me back so I can check on her and see how she is feeling. I am a worrier. But I have learned that no news is actually good news.
