Hey @tyme
How are you? How’s the shingles? Did you get to the wedding?
Ive not long gotten home.
Im doing kinda ok. Im trying this self regulation shit. I struggled on the way home this morning but I have been doing the 5 senses and breathing. I haven’t been as stupid in the road so I guess that’s something.
Work was a bit of a challenge but the shift is over now. Hopefully tonight I’m away from the dozer driver that is humiliating me.
Ill pop on before work if I have time.

OMG @Captain24 I do totally know and have totally stepped on those!! Ach geez your poor foot! Yeah nah if there's a whole bunch of nasty pointy bits like those around I don't brave the barefoot anymore!!
Heck yes, nice one!! You put energy towards your coping tools during a heightened emotional experience - even if they didn't feel like they worked, it still would have made some small difference, AND is continued practicing of the skill, which is that much harder to do when we're overwhelmed! So proud of you 😁 And I really hope this means some changes in your workplace?!! Maybe?!
Ahahaha well if anyone was ever so heartless to lock you up for skipping, don't you worry I will summon a band of misfits together to bust you out!! Heist style 😎
And trust me darlin, I have worked really REALLY hard to be this carefree - it's not just 'how I am', it's a state of mind accessible to anyone!! 😉
Ach, I hope you get time? Cos I will actually be away next Mon-Tues, not sure I mentioned? It's super last minute, I'm flying up to NSW to stay with fam and my mum n sister got maaaad salty at me when I said I would be working half the time I'm up there 😅
