Today has been a rest day.

I’ve slept on and off a lot of the day.

I slept a straight 9 hours and couldn’t move at 6.30am when I finally woke up.

I hadn’t moved all night.

I stayed in bed and was wakened again by the dogs!! I snoozed on and off until 10am when I got up to walk the dogs.

It’s surprisingly mild outside and I was a bit overdressed. I really had to concentrate just putting one foot in front of the other. I feel drugged…. Which of course, I actually am. 🫣🥴

Love all the buttercups that are growing just now.

And the Beauty and the Beast candlestick tree!

The clouds are dark and mean and moody, but it stays dry. They have a good run about in the field and we head home.

I drop off Bhruic & Freya and pick up Khaleesi and we’re off again.

Khaleesi loves watching the cows!! They fascinate her.

She’s so excited being out on a walk.

I breathe in the fresh air and feel the wind on my face

I came back home and sat and had a banana and a coffee and started work on the Silver Cloud CBT app.

I’d forgotten the Doctor had given me access to Cognitive Behaviour Therapy modules.

It’s a really good app. Very easy to use, clear and concise. Caring without being too patronising. Informative without being confusing.

I’m using all my energy to manage work just now so today I’ve just switched it all off.

The module today led me to a 30 minute body scan…. A meditation best done lying down.

I headed back up to bed.

It started at the tips of your toes.

The last thing I remember was the pelvic area and I was gone. Back off to sleep until 1pm!

I saw this when I woke and it made me laugh.

I got up and came downstairs and started to read my book.

I did today’s Donna Ashworth journalling and then I read for the rest of the afternoon.

I am shattered.

I am determined to rest today and fight tomorrow.

I have things to do tomorrow that require a fair bit of energy so today has been a rest and recharge.

I’m outside in my jammies in the early evening sun, getting a good dose of vitamin C.

As soon as I put this down, I’ll be reading again 😆😆

You have to listen to what your body tells you.

Sometimes I fight it but today I listened.

Happy Friday night!

Stay safe everyone ☀️☀️☀️
