When was the last time you just took a whole day and did nothing? Whole day to rest! A whole day to stay home, take care of your needs, *long pause* and do what you need to do?
For me, it's been a hot minute! I feel like I've been going non stop for months now! *deep gasp* And it all has just compounded and weighed on me to the point I have to stop! I absolutely have to stop!
Um, I have been increasing in pain level over the last week! Yesterday, my lower back was nearly completely locked up when I woke up! And the fatigue on my shoulders and arms is just really high right now! *laughs* Um, all I can do is smile and laugh through the pain! Because that's what I do! Um, it's a coping mechanism!
Uh... *deep gasp* So yeah! Staying home! I've been going for months back and forth between my home and where Josh is! Because my grandmother said that he wasn't allowed back on our property! And I understand her reasoning! Um! And until things are more situated, I really do understand it! It's her home! And if she doesn't feel safe around him, then she doesn't feel safe! And if he's not going to apologize to her, and to try to make things right and to make amends, then I get it! I really get it!
*deep gasp* Um, I've been trying so hard to work things out! But um, he's staying with um, a bunch of roommates, and um, as much as I love his roommates, cause I really do, I am a hermit by nature! *giggle* Um, and I need a certain amount of silence and stillness, uh, to be okay! Because that's just who I am! Uh, I am- I can be very ambivert where I can be outgoing and be around people, but I have to come back into my show [shell]!
Um, my shell is my home! Uh, you know that was put in me from childhood! My stepfather was a hermit, and this is just who I am! Um, I need to be home and I need a certain amount of silence!
So! That's what I'm doing today! I'm taking today and I am resting and I'm spending time with my animals! I'm cleaning my space and I'm tackling the pile of laundry we all know we all, we probably all got one right now! A pile of laundry that needs to be taken care of!
This is, this is my message to you! Make time this week! Take a day! Tomorrow, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday! Take the day! Stay home! And just be! Just exist in your space! Cause that's all what we all need to do right now!
So um, yeah! That's where I'm at! I hope you are having a wonderful week! It is been goregous weather where I'm at! We're at almost 80 degrees today! And I'm gonna go outside and enjoy some sunshine! And try to get rid of the Casper white! *shows arm* Yeah! I really am that white! My face is just a little bit darker than the rest of me! But yeah! *giggles* Light the fires of Gondor! *cackles*
So yeah! Um, need some sun, need relaxation! *sighs* Hope this finds you well! *tongue click*
