I spent time with the demons, though it was mostly just relaxing and watching the Snow fall. I felt really restless and ended up staying up really late. I want to do more but I’m finding that I really am needing more rest mentally than anything
There’s A Time For Rest
I was so tired and in so much pain. I wanted to write and do things, but I couldn’t focus even with my pain meds helping to ease it. I got realigned with my chiropractor and it relieved so much pain and walking issues.
I tried getting into reading or writing, I even asked my companions if they wanted to help with my writing and ideas. I did try. They convinced me to lay down and read. I was asleep within minutes of starting to read.
So not much happened beyond that they really just told me to get rest.
Sometimes, we have to take a day and that’s okay. It doesnt have to be anything huge or grand all the time. Celebrate the small wins.
Demons & Legos
Okay, I ended up at Walmart again… and once again.. I came across a discounted Lego set. Except this was a retired Avatar set that hasn’t been in stores since 2023 at least. So somehow I got lucky with it being 30% off too. It’s funny thinking on it because I know they are pleased that I got one – though I have been holding back on starting the Avatar set because though there are 11 sets, half of them are retired and two of them are $150 each. (Says the one that is doing Jurassic Park that has 50+ sets). Anyway.. once I got home.. I spent the night with them, just reading on my phone and unable to sleep. Eventually, Vex dragged me into the Solution Room and together we erased the old board. It was like a lot of that connection was severed finally (between what was on the board and what I am feeling). Now, I feel like its a new slate to begin again.
Self Care via Demons & Legos
I took the day and watched some movies and spent the day out with my mom doing shopping. The amount of deals and things I was finding at every store was incredible. My demons love that I have been getting into Legos. It’s absolutely de-stressing for me and I can decompress much easier. Same with going on frequent walks every few nights for body health. My mental health is improving by the spades each day. I was able to find a Lego set I wanted, then got two others for half off. They’re really pushing for me to really embrace this Lego, reading, and writing. I’m taking more time for me now than I have in a long while.
Just Relaxing
This was a day that was in more need of relaxing than anything. I didn’t have the spoons to do much else mentally. I have been so tired lately when I get home from working at my moms. So Paya just took me out to where there was a huge pod of whales that were swimming with a flight of rays of all kind, especially mantas. A Couple whales let me just relax on their fins and back. It was just a really lovely time.
Funny though, I was just about to fall asleep when Darwin’s wet nose touched the back of my hand, and scared the absolute hell out of me.
