Morning my @Emelia8 👋😀❤☕

[Emelia8]

Thank you so much everyone for your beautiful messages over the last few days.  Once again I find myself getting behind with my replies.  I hope to get around to responding properly later today or over the weekend.  I am definitely reading all your messages and appreciating all your lovely pictures.  I appreciate you all very much.  Its just that with so many others in deep distress the past few days ... I find myself on other threads, and just not getting back to here.  Then I see how much I am getting behind and I realise how long it will take me to catch up again.  Then it all seems too hard.  But I will get there.  Hubby is away now until Sunday arvo ... so I will have more time.  But at the same time, its almost like I am going through a de-tox ... a bit of a retreat almost.  But I will be fine ... just relishing a chance to do what I want, when I want.  Being able to turn the volume down on the TV (hubby is quite deaf and has it high), eating if or when I want, having a lie in if I choose, or basically just doing nothing.  Respite ........ and also listening to all the heavy rain we have been getting.  I will get back to you all ... I promise.  Love you.

Hi @Emelia8  It's only you putting pressure on yourself to provide individual responses. I always see you hitting the support button and I'm sure I speak for many others when I say - that is more than enough.

I hope you get to 'relish' the time while your hubby is away and do whatever you simply want to do. That in itself will be empowering and self healing.  My Mum used to say 'It's a holiday for me when hubby goes on holiday', as others didn't understand always why they didn't travel together frequently. I get the feeling you and my Mum have a bit in common in that sense.

Take care of you beautiful @Emelia8 

I look forward to hearing back from you when you are ready 💞💞

Hi Em 

That seems as if the next few days will be almost a holiday for you  - I am so glad you are having this break 

I enjoy all the pictures too  - I have had my procedure and l am in recovery  - I have some time to spend so I will try and find  one for you

Oh hunny,

Please just enjoy your time to yourself... please don't put pressure on yourself to respond to messages. We ALL understand...self care is paramount. Live you more @Emelia8

Hi again Em 

I had to post my message unfinished  - the nurse wanted to check my obs 

I found my pictures but I am unsure how to post them on my phone 

Don't worry about posting this weekend unless you want to  - enjoy time to yourself and little Hollow

Hi @Emelia8, good to see you. Join the club with "getting behind" but what you've written here is more than enough, I'm just glad to see youre ok'ish. Be careful not to burnout yourself re "others in deep distress" I don't know how you do what you do.
Good youre planning to make the most of Hubby being away. "Going through a de-tox" is a good way to put it, "a retreat" at home. Respite! My parents had tv so loud I had to wear ear plugs when there. Still didn't miss anything lol. Hope you're ok with this heavy rain & flash flood warnings in nsw. I'm worried about my sis on Central Coast. LoveU2, be kind to yourself Em 💗
love the doggy gif 👍
