I walked briefly here - the Exe Estuary at Bowling Green Marsh - on Saturday
when I was feeling a bit more normal, sporting a small thread of energy.
Tonight I caught the end of Spotlight - a local South West TV news programme filmed here at the Exe Estuary at Topsham
so I'm very pleased to now identify these gorgeous ducks as
Green Winged Teal.....he only took his head out of the water for a nano second at a time so I have lots of this headless version of him.
I think this is the female with the huge flat beak.
Unfortunately my little bit of feeling normal didn't last and I'm back in bed with inflamed sinuses and phlegm coming out of my eyes. Probably too much information.
So I'm laying low...sleeping a bit in the day as I can't at night - maybe something to do with this super moon casting her tidal net wide - reading mostly, writing a bit, watching films on Iplayer and feeling pretty miserable.
I've been living on mashed potato with olive oil, purple sprouting broccoli with a poached egg on top. Tonight I made an unctuous coconut milk rice pudding - which looks alarmingly coffee coloured as I used a bit too much vanilla powder - but it hits the sweet comfort spot perfectly.
My sisters and I also completed the 21 day Raising Your Self Esteem with Mirror Work Course with Louise Hay. And I can say with honesty I can now look back at myself in the mirror and find at least one good thing to say to myself...say it several times....and even start to believe it.
Louise says, There is one thing that heals every problem, and that is to love yourself. I'm finding it's a good place to start.
This is what I've been saying to myself to day.
It's only change.There is nothing to be afraid of.
