    I think it already is. I expected to fail miserably with my counselling skills but settled so quickly. When I got over feeling nervous and self-conscious it felt completely natural. I'm starting to think I was made for this.

    I got to deal with the shopping on my own since the parental units are away. Went to put Talia's dry food away and didn't realise until the bag was empty that the scoop was at the bottom... just need to make my bed and then I'm studying until tea then J is here later. This is pacing for me as my textbook is fascinating! I ended up wearing my splint all evening yesterday and my wrist feels a lot better today.

    Glad the splint helped. So, you're loving your textbook? Which one?

    I’m so proud of you
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    It feels absolutely ridiculous that I can travel home from town at night on my own and completely take it in my stride yet going across to the local shop in the daylight to withdraw my driving lesson money sets my heart racing

    True. I couldn't even pull both bins out ready for emptying tomorrow as there was a worm in the way. It makes me feel pathetic. It's disheartening when I think I've finally got it under control, but I know it's that thing of a couple of steps back doesn't mean I'm going backwards.

    The OU have put quite an extensive disability profile together for me based on the form I filled in about my mental health issues and my RA. I wouldn't have one if there wasn't a need so I guess I need to remember that though I am a lot better than I was a year ago, I am still ill and there will be days where that makes itself known.
