Self Care

Hello Everyone:

The major Jewish holidays are almost upon us and mum is in psycho mode. I’m in duck and cover mode. I’m coping with coffee and chocolate chip ice cream. Also, it’s a three-day weekend which means more time for her to drive me insane. Thursday I had a little fun break, shopping for makeup. Friday, I went back to the park. I was determined not to be chased out of the park by some transient. The funny thing was that the transients were gone. I think the police shooed them away. In a way, I’m glad because I read there were some stabbings near the park. The suspects were transients. I don't think It’all be permanent thing. It’s sad that so many people are homeless. It’s especially sad that so many people with alcohol-addiction and serious mental health issues don’t have a place to go and receive the treatment they need so desperately. It’s a never ending problem. Friday also turned out to more chill than usual. Since I got a stack of ironing done on Thursday, I had the extra time so I didn’t feel as frantic as usual. Nice, I had a little time to self care. Very important. Tomorrow is Labor Day and I can self care a little more—take my time.
