> Are you seeing a T at all? If you can't find a good group, maybe a T to talk to and get advice from is the answer. I'm in the process of looking for one myself.
***Dear TC - I go to Group Therapy. If I "need" work, I can ask for it. I can go for short-term counselling through hubby's EAP & the lady I go to is really good, but when I started with the Group Therapy, we'd come to the end of those particular sessions. She said she thought we'd done quite a lot of good work & I agree - I had learned a LOT. She thought it might be good to sort of take a break & 'let it gel'...especially as I was starting group therapy. I tended to agree.
I think that once my sale is over it will be better for me. I think that the sale prep (which always stresses me to some extent) is just too much & is pushing me over the top a bit. Setup day is Wed. Once that's done, I am FINE!!!
So it's only a couple of days now. I really think that once that is out of the way, I'll be able to take a more "take a good step back" from my son attitude.
> I seem to have caught a cold or something, fever (slight but enough to make me feel bad), body aches, post nasal drip, scratchy throat. Being sick always effects my frame of mind. If you feel bad, allow yourself to feel bad. You feel what you feel for a reason.
***So sorry about your cold. Hope the symptoms soon clear.
You're right. I'm trying just to 'be in' the feelings & let it be okay. I really do NOT like to feel badly - be it physical or emotional etc.> Its okay. This is where I whine and complain too. Believe me, I understand where you're coming from! If you hang in there I will too!
***Okay TC - we'll be 'hang in there' buddies!
It's a deal!
I'm feeling quite a bit better today. VERY tempted to go out & do something to avoid putting price tags on my pottery & itemizing them, but I'm not going to - except to go & grab a Tim Horton's steeped tea!!!! LOL
Last night my DEAR husband helped me set out all my work on the livingroom carpet in groups of stuff that will be (for ex) $10, another group of $8 stuff, etc & I put a paper with each group telling the price.
SO THAT is a BIG thing out of the way. Now all I need to do is put the tags on, write on them & type the description of each piece into the database. The actuall deciding how much to charge is VERY hard for me. Each year my husband kindly helps me. It means the world!
Thanks for being my buddie! much love, Kath
PS hope you're feeling totally better very soon. Also wondering basically how you're doing.
