Yup.....I'm alone. And I do too much thinking when I'm alone.
WPIML didn't need to remind me of that--apparently he felt it was necessary to call that fact to my attention.
Yup. I'm alone.
And Yup......I do too much thinking.
I'm not sad.
k....I am sad about the circumstances for The Brit's mum. And I've no doubt it's a difficult thing for him to get to contend with--and he's contending with it alone. He's an 'only child'. I'm sure it feels particularly lonely, getting to do what he's getting to do.
I'm not an 'only child'--attending to stuff with an ailing step-parent was a lonely affair when it was time for me to do it.
It didn't matter how many people were attempting to stick their hand in that till--it was a lonely, sad and sometimes scary affair.
It just gets to be how it is today.
WPIML didn't wanna talk about The Brit and the mum and the circumstances that drove the decision to send himself solo. Go figure he wanted to talk about me.

MEMEME.......*sigh*
I don't particularly wanna talk about MEMEME, tyvm.
I'm good with simply doing what's in front of me.....
Wanna talk the inside workings......nope, pass.
Geeze....everybody knows that Mel having too much time with Mel is a baddddddd plan.
Including Mel.
Which is why shampooing the carpets happened straight out of the gate.
And why closets have been reorganized.
And why crafty stuff has been sorted through and straightened.
And why all those silly floppy thingies got put onto a memory stick....
*sigh*
But I'm running outta things around this joint that I wanna do.
Note that I said 'wanna do'.
And I'm getting myself into that place of 'danger danger Will Robinson!!!'.
I know it.
WPIML knows it.....
He suggested maybe doing an extra meeting or two......I just don't have the desire. And I'm not bothering to find the energy at this point.
Going to see the bug is an option that I've executed more than once. The girl knows me and my crazy thinking--she's kept an 'open door' policy going....Nana gives her a break and the bug makes me happy.....it's that darn simple.
But alone happens.
And yup......WPIML has just cause for concern.
I don't have to pick up a drink to get that whacked out thinking.......heck, I've not picked up a drink for some time now....
Doesn't mean the whacked out thinking is gone.
I'm clear it's not.
So......keep busy.
Find another cupboard to clean, another area to straighten.....another person to ring.....another work-related thing to toss myself into.....
Cuz I'm thinkin' too much.
And I'm ruminating over stuff I don't get to control or change today.
And some of the circumstances--are just hard.
Thinkin' about 'em makes me scared.......
And I do not do fear well.

Hang in there Mel.
(((((((Mel)))))))
you are not alone, dearheart, in one sense
my three are all back at school now - first day I've been alone (apart from my time in Cornwall) since The Teen was off school for his exams/revision just after Easter. . .
. . .once they'd gone this morning, I slept on the sofa the whole day
then finally woke up/got up, dressed and pretended I'd been functioning ok all day long just in time for when the first of them walked back in the door. . . not good - tomorrow maybe I'll clean closets, carpets, anything other than spend the whole day asleep
like The Man said, you hang in there, honey
(((((((((((((((Mel))))))))))
I know this....the hermiting (by choice or circumstance) with the dwelling...and the over dwelling...
I don't have any helpful solutions...but I've been there...often.
keep the WPIYL and the Bug close.
fear not.
<3 mel
Sending you thoughts and prayers for an Oakey Doakey Mel
Be well my dear.
I was going to be full of good advice, the stuff I tell others when the going gets tough. But you know what when it gets tough for me I clean and clean and tidy and tidy and admire it all ..... then I watch episode after episode of the West Wing. Not saying that will work for you just having some solidarity,even though my demons are different to yours

here's a fun read Mel...

You are LOVED!
You have no idea how long I have looked at this. I have been banging my head into a wall daily, and I just don't want to spend whatever free time I have complaining. Sound familiar?
