Frustration

5/26

Not a good day, (see gardening). Over the last 2 days I haven’t been able to physically accomplish what I wanted.  So I came inside and took out my adult coloring books and spent the rest of the afternoon “burying my brain”.  That’s what I call what happens to me when I get depressed.  Another way would be playing computer games for hours.  This way I don’t think about my frustrations.  It is never doing anything productive, for fear of not being able to start something else and fail. 

One day I took out all my broken jewelry, most just needed links put in.  I got tweezers, needle nose pliers and it should have taken 10 minutes.  I couldn’t even do the easiest fix! My hands are basically numb all the time and I couldn’t hold onto the small links. I tried 2 different times for about 20 minutes before just giving up.  Time to bury the brain.
