Hi and thanks @Zoe7 I could rave some more about how boofhead is affecting me but there wouldn't be much point. Lets just say I'm locking myself and dog inside at twilight each evening.
How are you today? What do you have planned?
I will do some gardening while the sw is here and also want to return some cane baskets I bought yesterday. My sister suggested getting them to put under my bed for extra storage and also to block the view of all the other schrapnel that's under there. I bought too hastily, hadn't measured the space, and they were just 3 cm too big. Luckily they're from Big W and I can get a refund. Then we'll go looking for something the right size, maybe at the hypermarket that's a bit further away. Might also replace the ugly melamine shelves I have if I see something suitable that I can afford. When I got them I thought I'd paint them but paint doesn't hold on the melamine. It will be nice to spruice the cabin up. Even the new rug makes it feel much better.
Went to bridge yesterday. Nearly cancelled but I'm glad I went. The ladies at my table are going to go to a play session at the club on Tuesday nights and invited me and offered me a lift. So during the session I was anxious about that and had to say no at the end of the session. I just don't feel ok about going out at night while the others are away. It was a bit embarassing but they were nice about it. It's really tricky for me navigating being in new social groups where it's not specific to people with MH challenges and I am doing it without a sw. I want to disclose as little as possible. Maybe it's a bit like that for you with school staff too? How do you deal with it?
Hope I haven't missed you with this long post xx
