Petals diary

Your snacks and dinner sound good to me.

Yep, there's something strange going on this week, the tiredness is massive. Maybe it's a last ditch effort to get some extra zzzs in the snooze bank before summer comes.
 
......or Winter
 
I´ve been feeling the pollen the past couple of weeks, but I don´t know if you´re allergic as well.
 
LaMa I don't think much pollen here yet , between snow and wind and rain it's a disaster . I think maybe peri menopause and generally worn out . Have had lots of stresses anxiety,work has been tough , away last week , maybe all caught me up. I don't know really . We shall see .
 
Hi Petal! Can you take a couple of sick days? I know it's frowned upon by employers to take restorative days off before you actually crash, but you sound so tired, I am worried you might get sick again. If you took a couple of days off, maybe you could avoid crashing. Sending warm thoughts and cozy blankets!!!
 
I love the concept of "Restorative Days"!
Where I work, we have unlimited Discretionary Time Off (DTO). So we can take as much time off as we want/need without it mattering why.
It's definitely opened up the ability for me to take time off without rationing my PTO/Vacation Days.
 
We don’t get any sick leave at all so it would be unpaid . But maybe I will take some days anyway while me daughter is in school and tell no one. It’s an idea thank you .
I have Monday off at least and had some lunch out today so that was nice at least . Afternoon was busy with a study period .
 
I hope you are able to take some time to restore your equilibrium. Enjoy your Monday, Petal xoxo

Agree with all the above. That thing about taking time for your health or you'll be forced to take time for your sickness.

Spent yesterday cooking and visiting and watched a movie . Today I have been binge watching tv . I know I should go out but weather has been yuck and Just feel the need to sit and do little . I will do myblittle walk later of course . Spoke to a family member about going away for a night to a nice spa which would be ok .
 
Hi all I’m just coming in to say I need to take a break for a bit from lots of things . One being the Internet. I need some downtime. I’m pretty sure I have a bit of low grade depression right now . Im tired tearful feel a bit lost and helpless at the moment . I been there before and know i will come out of it. Thankfully I’m not eating my way into it or out of it if anything I’m eating ok but need to rejig myself a bit .
Thanks for everything and hopefully I’ll bounce back here soon xx
 
Hi Petal,
Sometimes just knowing where you're at is half the battle.
My daughter deals with depression and anxiety on a pretty extreme level and being able to recognize when you need to take a break is a huge start.

It all does pass,
Many hugs,
