My Happy Place Day Twenty Two My Happy Place today is that I'm so looking forward to an early night, not much sleeping going on last night as mum was on her awake in the middle of the night cycle. I am happy that I got through the day, in jet lagged kind of way and normally this would make me quite grumpy being tired. I am sure the coffee and odd chocolate treats helped keep my energy going … [Read more...]

My Happy Place Days 12 & 13 My Happy Place has been a real lesson to me. I started it for one reason. The reason being my mother and how I was handling my emotions in caring for her. The sadness I was feeling knowing that the confusion and vagueness she has is always there. The tiredness of getting up during the night and just feeling overwhelmed in caring for her. But would not have it any … [Read more...]

My Happy Place Day Eight This is probably my shortest post ever as I am about to dash out the door, for Miss 15's School Speech night. This morning when I realised Speech night was on, my heart sunk and I thought here's four hours of my life I will never get back. Throughout the day, this thought changed to accepting tonight as a time to reflect on my daughter. A daughter who I am so very proud … [Read more...]

My Happy Place Day Seven Well that certainly was a very hectic week, I have downs but I've had plenty of ups and I really believe that having my Happy Place has changed me back to the old Happy Nathalie. I feel much stronger emotionally handling my Mother's Alzheimer's and my ever increasing work load. I made the time to go out twice this week, which is a rarity for me but I feel so … [Read more...]
