Busy, Busy, Busy!
May. 21st, 2019 10:33 pmWe all made it back from Washington safely! I got a lot of pictures of husband's family, and got to talk with them at length about family stories. I'm sad that kiddo couldn't meet husband's grandmother before said grandmother passed, but this is an unfortunate consequence of both our parents' choices to have children later in life.
In related news, I am getting better at tolerating plane flights! I still definitely need to work on storing tension in my jaw; I'll have to remember to have more accessible chewing gum or gummy candy during take-off and landing.
My counselor appointment this afternoon was productive! I can tell that I'm getting a better perspective on certain aspects of my life, and I can pull apart the why and how of events that happened. I still feel incredibly tired more often than not, but it's tiredness from doing the emotional heavy-lifting that's exclusively for myself: it makes sense that I'm tired from it.
We also made the mutual decision of not bringing our laptops with us on this particular trip. Consequently, I have not written anything for "Your Hearts, And Mine" for the past four or five days. While I appreciated the break, it's also going to be difficult for me to get back into the headspace of writing for that particular universe.
