Checking in very late today as I had a very 'off day' I woke up to a sick partner who felt very much that their sickness was both my fault and that they would not be cared for by me if they shared how they felt about it, so I spent most of my day caring for them without any time to prepare to do so. And I did it, and it was okay, and I am proud of myself for doing that, its not long ago that I wouldn't have been able to be that kind to both myself and to them.
So I'm checking in and checking out all in one motion, but hopefully tomorrow being a Monday will bring with it more intentionality and less need for reactionary behaviour.
