Slow days can be good @Jynx
I’m feeling really low and dark. I called in sick today. I got my physical pain. I’m so sore after yesterday’s incident.
I have been looking after myself though. I’ve been distracting myself and I’ve just had a bath.
Yeah.. show me please

Was just telling MissinTooth that it's a good thing to write days off from time to time @Captain24! Good on you for prioritising your need for rest.
Wow the poem I shared earlier is super relevant tonight!!
Bath is gooooood, wish I had a bath! I'm lighting all my candles though, it definitely helps soothe me and also warms up the room!

I shouldn’t have called in sick @Jynx. I feel guilty. But I guess it’s too late now. I did need the day though. I’m now watching Netflix but I just can’t focus. The noise is a bit loud. At least I’m trying something. I’ve been trying.
What was the poem?
I have a big bath and it’s so nice. I put salt in it to help with my muscles.
Candles so nice. How many do you have if they warm up the room!!!
Pix was annoying me so I gave her a treat. Now she is happy and leaving me alone.
please let me know if you don’t have time. I don’t want to bother you like last night. Its ok

@Captain24 yesss you are trying!! Proud of you!! I often use streaming as background noise lol it does help hey.

You need rest
Not a thing we need earn
We fight best
With energy to burn
Magnesium salts!! I wish I could use them in the shower somehow...

Thanks. @Jynx. It doesn’t feel like I deserved.
That’s good. It hopefully is what I needed.
That’s a lot of candles!!! I have a few but only light one.
Sometimes it can be annoying but you always give in and give em pats.
Thanks for helping through it. I really appreciate your ways of going about things.
I’ve got 7 more shifts left before I’m off for nearly 4 weeks. I need to just get through them. But maybe this is just a blip on the road.
It is getting pretty rocky right now
