Spring snow.... no more sand to vacuum up now puddles to mop up....🐾🐾🐾😂

[CanuckAnon]

It’s been snowing all day😕 bright but cloudy... kind of low feeling day. Been dragging around lacking motivation to get stuff done.

Has anyone ever felt like time goes slower when u want it to speed up? It’s not like I’m looking forward to something concrete at a specific point in future nor am I expecting anything. I feel like I’m living in limbo waiting for what comes but I’m finding I am afraid of unknown. I like plans, checklists, lists of all kinds, I like being prepared so I can control my reactions to whatever... yes perhaps a bit control freakish🤔

Any thoughts about how to stop worrying, obsessing over every little detail trying to figure it out which is probably making it worse in some respects.. my brain is spinning bad to the point I’m vibrating with pent up energy... damned hamster on red bull turbo charging the wheel...

I’m trying to bite my tongue, distract myself, walk, cook, clean.. nothing is stopping my brain... anyone have any tricks up your sleeves u feel like sharing?

If only patience was a virtue I possessed for me personally.. I have plenty for others.

I love to throw on a YouTube video to listen to. Sometimes tedtalks or meditations. They somehow get in my head and get me to listen and phase everything else out of my head. The meditations ALWAYS help. So calming and logical and helpful. Lay down, close your eyes, and open your mind to what needs to be heard.

they just called a state of emergency so all non essential stuff closes at midnight... trying to figure out how to get my meds... pot stores are not essential apparently...🤔 guess I’m ordering online.. if they are not open tomm morning!

I tried meditating been watching YouTube as always... my butt hurts from so much walking and yoga... I’ve been ignoring it for past 2-3 days... just not stopping...

I stocked up on too much pot and there's nothing to do but that, and it's causing me to eat up all my food up too quickly. So be aware.

[CanuckAnon in reply to Hidden]

is there such a thing as too much pot? Well I got lots and lots of munchies, bacon, cheese sandwiches.... 😋

[Hidden in reply to CanuckAnon]

Good point. More of both would've been better bc idk how long this is gonna be.

[CanuckAnon in reply to Hidden]

Grocery stores won’t close...

[CanuckAnon in reply to Hidden]

My pot store has been deemed essential service!!! 😊

[Hidden in reply to CanuckAnon]

Good it should be, Medicine is def essential. Get my money, buy my medicine.

[CanuckAnon in reply to Hidden]

Ya it is but official medical is available from specific dispensaries online... this is technically a recreational store like I can’t save my receipts from there to write off as medical expenses but I can from certain online dispensaries... regulative bureaucracy of a bad legalization roll out imo... it should have been decriminalized and given to free market imo not this quasi govt/specific private enterprise...

[Hidden in reply to CanuckAnon]

I am in a state where it's illegal anyways but I do not give a damn at this point. If they try to arrest me I'll just start coughing. It's like a $50 ticket. Wonder if I could write that off?

[CanuckAnon in reply to Hidden]

Ya I have a friend in Georgia where it’s illegal even medicinal so I keep wondering how I can visit her with my meds... I figure I can cross border into NY as there are dogs sniffing cars crossing into USA and then pick up meds there and continue on my way to Georgia with meds... I’m just not sure about laws in states for who can pick up at dispensaries etc...

Hi. I don’t have anything brilliant to suggest to keep your brain busy except for movies, books, make a little schedule for yourself each day ?

I feel as if I am floating along waiting in limbo also. It is a strange time. My days are all the same and slow.

Btw, the snow looks beautiful but I understand how you may not want it. Me either. It is time for a new season and change.

Just wanted to tell you I will be thinking of you. Best wishes.

[CanuckAnon in reply to Poodie]

I have done this... sometimes I’m great at motivating myself others I feel glued to couch... 😂 I think it’s just a funk that I’m in and fingers crossed I come out of it... 😊

[Hidden]

But it’s so beautiful. Actually it might as well be doing that here, I haven’t seen sun for over 10 days, it’s been overcast and raining.

I bought all my flowers to pot Saturday and supplies to build my tiny vegetable garden. I need some nice weather desperately.

I don’t have many suggestions, I can only say plan things for the month this will definitely be gone. Things like this actually teaches us about patience. I used to pray for patience, I did not get instant ability to be patient, I would get something like your experiencing. Hang in there. 💜🌺💜🌺💜🌺💜🌺

[CanuckAnon in reply to Hidden]

I hope that your weather cooperates with your potting... nothing as frustrating as that eh? I hope it will sort itself out but it’s just the limbo feeling like damned if I do and damned if I don’t... no matter what I do or how I progress it won’t be enough so the desire to speed up time comes into play for me... I wish I could pray but sadly I doubt it will make a difference bcuz u can’t pray for stuff like this and I haven’t in so long it would be hypocrisy or likely seen that way...

[Starrlight]

The unknown yup I think most of us are afraid of that. I deep breathe and focus on the present whenever possible. Movies/shows to distract. Walking running yoga to get negative energy out.
