I went and talked with a Neighbour and Friend and talked about our relationships

There may have been scotch involved .. there was no evidence by the end of the night of any scotch.

That is great @Dad4good, glad to have you back. Enjoy your self-care! I started watching GoT but got lost along the way haha.. I might watch it one day but also feel like catching up is one looooong massive task.

Today for self-care I am planning to walk home from work and chat on the phone to a friend.

Re: Today for self-care I...

This week is a tough one. Kids have a lot on and I have resumed my own EMDR sessions with my psych this week. Although very effective for me, I find them exhausting so sleep is my self care.
