How could anyone with a heart feel good in this ever changing world. I've been in my house for 8 days doing Nothing and feel like shit...haven't heard from my son in a while, living alone is hard in that respect. Yet I suppose living in a challenging situation as you are with gm/son is very hard.
I've been trying to figure out my 'emotional patterns' that send me down the worm hole... help me move forward...today was a Huge day, first day I've gotten dressed. Hang in there!
I'm making a goal for tomorrow to go out of my house! I need to get to the bank and get some cream for my coffee :) So I'll have to get dressed! :) The thought of going into a grocery store is a Horror! Trying not to let my 'subconscious' fear based, rule my conscious life...making myself do the 'hard stuff'...baby stepping Jenn...(((hugs)))
