I need to use a “positivity sandwich” like someone recently taught me. First, I tried out a facial mask directly from Japan. All the instructions were on Japanese, but it had pictures.
Now for the hard part that I’ve known about all week but have been stalling on giving updates on because I’m not yet mentally ready to go through it. I’m going to do it anyway. It’s the anxiety and nerves that are getting to me.
Last of all, me talking to a pile of blankets to leave you feeling less down.

My kitten Ned just got very concerned about Silas’s whining and now she’s creeping around looking for the cause.

How long before she gave up the search?

Stress, anxiety are normal feelings that let you know you are alive. Shaun asked me the night before surgery if I was nervous. I replied “no, I’m not tbe first one to go through this and the doctors know what they are doing.” Just another day at the office. One more entry into the journal to he followed by many more. What you are going through is Much more yet many have done it successfully already. It is a necessary step to the final goal. Remember,
“Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.”
Love Dad

Most of the time my emotions haven’t lined up with any of the grieving process. It’s a relief to be experiencing them. Otherwise they’ll manifest in damaging ways. I know I’m not the only one who’s gone through this, which is comforting. I try to teach the boys that it’s okay to be afraid but important to be brave.
