Nesting

Whenever I feel anxious or worried I immediately feel the need to 'nest' - I want to clean the house from top to bottom, throw out things that I no longer need or want, and most of all I feel the need to just retreat under the duvet until I feel it is safe to emerge. The nest that is my bed is just so comforting at the moment, when it's not fully occuped by cats.

Just when we thought things were taking a small turn for the better we were proved wrong. We've had the shouting, the tears and are now trying to look for a plan B. At the moment there isn't one which will enable us to plan beyond the end of July.

Thankfully, Roland has been offered two shifts behind the bar at Take5 on Friday and Saturday this weekend and I am getting paid a small amount for being one of several backing singers for a theatre piece that's being produced by one of my chums.

We are workshopping the song tomorrow and Friday then recording it on Saturday, so I'm taking a couple of days off work to do that.
