Today I lost the plot

[creativesarah]

Today I really lost it, shouting, swearing, crying (a tiny bit)
I just got so frustrated with not being able to do all the things that I want to do and
equally as frustrated that my brain doesn't do what I want it to do either
why doesnt it remember! why cant I think of alternatives when I can't do what I want it to!

Now I must qualify this with the fact that I have been reading brilliant book on vulnerability called Daring Greatly by Brene Brown
I came across her work on you tube

I guess letting down my guard was being Daring GREATLY for me!

here is the first video that I watched

I am daring grately by telling you this but I hope my vulnerability helps others to realise they are not alone!

Dear Sarah

Sorry you lost the plot, I did last week. Not sure I've got the plot back again but am on a slightly better keel?! but know it can change again.

Got some ideas that may help you but not now, will PM you.

You do help me by what you write so thank you - but sorry you feel so vulnerable.

Hope you feel better as the evening comes and experience peace and calm
love
Sue

HI Sarah

Don’t let yourself get to anxious about having a bad moment as I quiet often have the same problem, as I know all too well just how frustrating it can be when things we want to do just don’t go the way they should but it happens to us all the have any type of dementia and I know and understand what you mean about ‘letting your guard slip even for a short moment in time’ as that’s something that I’m always afraid of doing and then the dementia seem to slip through the back door that little bit more when our guard is low...

Just keep fighting at it as your doing so well
Best wishes
Barry

Get Well Soon ........

Sarah , Hope you are feeling more peaceful today & hope your knee is less painful & just a thought if it is painful a warm Hot Water bottle might be a good idea to rest on your poorly knee ! ( the warmth will help take the pain away )


Much Love & Kind thoughts

Today I have taken it easy I felt very lazy.
No ironing!
My knee feels a bit better as I have rested it so hopefully tomorrow it will be loads better
I did feel bad while everyone else was beavering about
Tonight I have been looking at some old family photos that I have scanned and uploaded onto my laptop My great Grandfather had one eye smaller than the other and it obviously carried on down the line!
Wht did my Great Grandmother use the silver teapot when having afternoon tea in the garden?
Absolutely fascinating

 

[grove]

Am very pleased you have rested all day Sarah & your knee is feeling a little better


You are lucky having Photo's of your Great Grand Father ! have never seen any photo 's of my Great Grand Parents


Hope your knee is much better soon & you have a good weekend
