I hate this
Well it's 3am, I'm so bloody tired yet I can't sleep. It's treatment day today. No biggy. It's just an infusion. It's just accessing the port. I'm so close to the finish now with only 4 treatments to...
Hi Karen, Like Steph I'm a big believer in allowing yourself to feel whatever is going on. If you want to cry and watch bad movies all day then just do it. One thing I do know is that the housework won't go anywhere and when you feel like it you can do it then. If the garden isn't weeded and looking gorgeous so what. I have shouted my self a lawn mower man and I'm going to keep him. I don't care if I can't weed the garden and if the house is a train wreck, well I don't care much about that either. If people come to the house and they don't like it that will be their problem not mine. The people who love me won't care either.
I am working and am the primary carer for my 91 year old Mum and I know I can't do it all so I'm not going to. I do what needs to be done these days and I'm ok with that. In a few months I might think what a rotten slob I've become and decide to make amends - who knows maybe my laissez-fair attitude will continue.
You have to be kind to yourself and just allow yourself to let some things go.
Thinking of you today and tomorrow. Take it easy. Maureen
