I been cycling like a dust devil since the Romantic Drama which triggered the latest CPS drama regarding 3 grandchildren. Ouchy Mama. My wishes and denials are often heard here in this healing community. NO FUCKING FAIR!!! Details are in my jounal, if anyone feels they are pertinent.
The good news is that I believe my therapy exercises are holding me steady through the storms. This morning I am multi-purposing hammer therapy as I secure the floor boards of the Tinker's Den I have been building. Some faces look downright sexy on those nail heads as I let my hammer fall. Bent or flying nails remind me to balance my forces. Don't make it more painful than it has to be. Just let that hammer fall.
I gotta get out of bed and get a hammer and a nail
Learn how to use my hands, not just my head
I think myself into jail
Now I know a refuge never grows
From a chin in a hand in a thoughtful pose
Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose ~Indigo Girls
Support needed. Am I making sense or am I on yet another no-fucking-fair slide into the abyss?

Hiya My internet is changing today and I'm not sure how long the switch over will take, I'm hoping 24 hours at the most, but I'm probably being too optimistic We are changing to another company and going full fibre for the internet. But at least it's changing to the one payment rather than the payment for the home landline phone and a payment for the internet. So I'm not going to be on here...

Name something you hated as a kid that you love as an adult.
My recent downs has shown me the value of using my hands and hard work to slow the plummeting into my own mental abyss. And as I’ve recently be hanging a lot of pictures, my hammer has become a great tool for venting the growing pressures.
Be gentle my dearest friend! With you! Hugs!
Thank you for the validation, Vltava. Sorely needed. In my personal psych herstory, the crazy one really is the last one to know. It is wicked hard to distinguish reality from delusion under the influence of psychosis.
Thanks for the reminder that I need to put the back panel on my sewing kiosk. It is wobbling and in need of attention, but calls for allot more finesse than the 3 1/2 inch sinkers I've been hammering in this round. Girl howdy you can get your anger channeling rocking on those puppies. I might have calmed enough to handle finishing nails now. Maybe.
I’m glad you had a restful afternoon & evening
Here holding hope in my heart for everything mi amiga
Gentle hug <3
One of my personal favorite magics of the peer support network is that I still feel the support of the first peer support sister who held me while I cried back in 1972.
No cabe duda que estas aca. !Que rica!
