The very first time I called for counselling, I had to really work up to it. I wasn’t at all ashamed of needing help, or seeing a counsellor. Not at all. But just calling that first time and putting myself out there felt daunting. Having to actually pick a time and commit to the appointment, and then tell the stranger on the phone what I wanted to talk about – ack! I had to really psych myself up for that! I remember finally making the call, and then no one answered the phone!! 🤣 It took me another couple of days to work myself up to the point of calling again, haha! I’m sure some of you know the feeling I’m describing.
Today we were supposed to have a bit of a heavy appointment, and while it was not to the same level, I felt my body psyching itself up to prepare.
And then it didn’t happen!!! 😅 Aaaaaaahhh!!!
So rather than actually take care of something we needed to do, Brady and I sat and had coffee while I worked on some other things on the laptop. It was still semi-productive, but not in the lofty ways I had hoped for. Not in the ways my body was preparing for. Thankfully, that appointment was rescheduled with someone who is committed to showing up for us, and today was not a total loss.
Bonus points to Walmart for having vanilla Coke! It’s possible I stocked up a little 😬 Such a yummy little guilty pleasure treat today!
Alright. Hamburger helper is the name of the game tonight, plus yummy salad made from the garden veggies of people who have shown us love. Signing off for this one. ✌️
