Sotired, I second what Daffodil says. But I also understand the impulse. I have just taken on a big promotion in the knowledge that the work will keep me busy around the time of OH's potential charges/court dates.
I figure I'll go to a spa for a week or something when this is all over. Maybe we can do it together and just melt down into puddles of residual stress??
well done on the rooms looking lovely

Can I send you my address?
Seriously well done for your hard work - it takes guts to target your anxiety into something productive.
But as the ladies say dont over do it..... xxxxx

Well done on all your hard work and I know exactly where you are coming from on this because I too tend to overwork in order to take my mind off things that are overwhelming.
Dont overdo it though and try to take some time just for yourself ( easier said than done I know)
Wouldnt it be lovely to have a group meet up with all you wonderful ladies at a spa ?- maybe we could all have a virtual pamper session together on a particular day?
Sending you lots of love and hugs xx

100% virtual pamper day, ladies!!
I don't actually like spas because wandering about in a dressing gown and damp bathers all day is odd.
I Will be in a log cabin in woods by a lake.
you're welcome to join me (especially if you know how to light a fire)

I stripped my house last summer. My bedroom went back to brick, anything I could change, I did! Bathroom and kitchen remain the same but everything else of re decorated. New carpets, the lot!
I couldn't think of anything worse now so I got it out of my system!

No, unfortunately it doesn't feel lovely. It feels terrifying and sad and temporary.
I can't imagine ever feeling safe here again.
It was a good distraction for a while though! Take it easy- if you are manic, you'll crash at some point and that's gonna feel hard! Lots of love xx
Grey isn't my favourite- I'm pink through and through :)

K4, no spa for me, I'm joining you in that log cabin in the woods.
We moved house about 6 months after my son got the knock; it was a planned move and nothing to do with the knock but I'm glad we did it. The memories of my children growing up there were definitely tainted by what had happened.
We have now taken on a huge renovation project which totally fulfills the manic need to keep busy - I totally understand that impulse. The more stressed I am, the busier I get and there's definitely an element of control in that too; everything has to be perfectly in its place as a kind of coping mechanism.

You can decorate the cabin if you get the urge while we're there x
I'm working on a mood board already!! x
Lol same thing here accept it was cleaning, my house was spotless not a speck of dust or dirt anywhere (which is stupidly impressive with two kids) I went totally bonkers with cleaning, up side I have found some great products to clean the hob without having to scrub the hell out of it lol
