Today has been pretty okay. I woke up in the night and struggled to get good sleep so I did wake up feeling a bit rough and tired, but also excited because I had plans to see my best friend.
She had text me the other day to say she was in town over Easter visiting her parents. She lives miles away, and I barely see her so I fully rearranged plans just to see her.
So we went to my friends, sat in the garden trying to follow rules but it was freezing so we sat in the kitchen instead. We had so many laughs and it was incredible to spend some time with her, even if it was only a couple of hours.

When we left, I did a bit of shopping (food) and went home; cooked some tea for B but I wasn’t really hungry so didn’t do myself any.
This evening I feel quite low. I feel like I want to wrap myself up in a blanket and cry. I feel like I want to be looked after, cared for, mothered. I just feel a bit meh and sad. I need a tight hug.
THREE POSITIVES FROM TODAY:
1. I saw my best friend!
2. I attempted self care
3. I had a McDonald’s
