Had a bad day here haven’t gone out didn’t want to go out haven’t even done the bins yet I thought if I leave it long enough the neighbour would do it and she did thank you. Spent most of the afternoon after lunch in bed again this is bad I know and definitely not me. I did work yesterday I was tired too .
Didn’t know what I wanted to eat need to go shopping maybe tomorrow so I have ordered a takeaway for a change how can ordering a takeaway a set meal for one person get me upset I ended up crying and apologising to the guy on the phone explaining that I’ve never ordered a meal for one.
Aww Bless You Toosoon!.
Just know that you are not alone in feeling this way. As I said before, it's natural to feel like this as it is still very early days for you. If it helps I have had a really sh*t day as well and when I feel like that bed is just so inviting so I just retreat there for a little while and I nod off for an hour. Yes just one of those days when I just want to say `F` it!! and not do anything. I did go out this morning for a little while. I drive so I have that that when I go out I can go in the car and don't need to make `small talk` if I bump into anyone in the street. You will get used to the meals for one. I'm an `old hand` at it now. It's usually a MacDonalds or a Subway at the weekend and through the week it's ready meals or something simple I can rustle up. Big change from the culinary delights Jay used to come up with and the platefuls he would make. Just take your time dear you will get there eventually. Take Care.
