Sunshine after the rain

WRAP is Wellness recovery action planning.
It's to help recovery to wellness and also prepare an action plan to keep you there and steps to take if you feel any deterioration in your mental health. I've been offered it before but it's only now that I feel in a place to benefit from it.

The CV needs to be done as part of my NVQ but i also want to be starting to think of the future beyond therapy. I'm not ready for work just yet but I want to start and think about work as being a part of my future and to be as prepared as I can be to try and enter the workforce . I'm being offered help to do all these things so I am taking full advantage of it.
I'm at an age when you filled in application forms for a job so I've never had a CV and dont know where to start.
I also need help with it as I'm not too sure of my strengths or transferable skills etc.
It should hopefully be a helpful experience

Today I am home alone all day since..... I actually dont remember, definitely since first lockdown last year.
I have delivered Io to work and am lying on top of the bed with a cucumber facemask drying nicely.
Planning my day and what I would like to achieve. There has been a slight thaw here today and its raining rather than sleet.
Hopefully I can get out for a walk without slipping and sliding everywhere.

Fingers crossed! It's thick frost here.

Are you ok about being alone today?

I'm so glad that you've been doing some self care of the facemask! That's awesome. Not that long ago when you wouldn't have considered it.

The WRAP and CV sound definitely worth doing love, and I'm so glad that you're not planning on rushing back to work quite yet.
Is it safe for you to go out for a walk? Wrap up and be careful love.

Well I'm always being told I'm not safe to be let out alone so hopefully home will be safer!
No seriously, I think it will be a novelty. I'm here today and tomorrow alone.

Thanks, I believe in giving things a go to see if they help.

We are having torrential rain at the moment. It's great as its melting away the ice and snow etc but it's not enticing me out the door. Might wait and see what the afternoon brings!!
Of course that means I've no excuse not to clean the bathroom......grrr!!

[Jaquaia]

Mine needs doing while you're at it!

[Strugglingmum]

Rain hasn't let up.......think I'll give the walk a miss

Walking in the rain is great. Once to get over the getting wet phase lol

[Strugglingmum]

Hmmmmmm. I went out...should have stayed at home. Fell in the woods it was so wet and muddy with the thaw!! Home and changed now and scraped the mud off my cream coat and Wellie boots. Jeans hit the washing machine. Whose idea was it to get a dog??!! ..... oh, that would be me
