Couch 206: The Hersilia Couch

Are there any particular sites or are they easy to find? I'm not savvy about this kind of thing!

That is actually a really nice idea. I do listen to music on you tube and some videos have nice pictures of nature but I didn't think to specifically look at beach ones. Thanks for the suggestion!

Lonely I know you are addressing @@.. but I have a free app on my phone called Happy Color..it’s a color by number thing and I have a jigsaw puzzle app called Totally Free Jigsaws.

The object games are online (try Big Fish). The puzzles, I just order books off Amazon.

I am craving peanut m&m's right now so may have to go out and buy some.

Hi Couchies...I feel a little under the weather today so I stayed home from Church. Just watching Hallmark Movies and Mysteries. Really should do some of the homework from Pastor T but I am just not feeling like doing it. Just want to zone out in front of the TV.

He just left yesterday. But we're going to talk twice while he's away.

Cant you tell, SD's just yanking my chain! What else is there to do on a lazy Native American summer Sunday afternoon? Is that the politically correct term? Im thinking probably not!

North American aboriginal summer?

Hugs, Kit. I love watching Hallmark movies.

Oh i'm sorry. How long is he away for?

Will it be over phone or email?

I recently started cross-stitching. Low-key and fun to make gifts for people.

Once exhankster starts bringing hearts into the picture -I am out.

A 4 day weekend for my kids have their energy levels on hyper drive. They are driving me insane today. Going to take them with me to clean out the car and maybe go to the pumpkin patch today. Trying to force myself to do things this weekend instead of calling T. He did say I could but I dont know what I'd say other than I'm stressing out like always.

I relate to some of this. Part of why I left (initially just break) ex-‘Tis that she didn’t seem to recognize how much progress I’d made. She made some comment near the end about how I still struggle so much with depression and anxiety. Like I hadn’t made any progress at all in the 6 years, where I thoughtI had. I confirmed with ex—MC, H, and a friend that I’d made progress. Current T (aka Dr. T) will acknowledge that I’ve made progress and can see changes in me, which is important to me. And he’s accepted my need to seek consultation or take breaks. Art, it seems at times like your T is trying to dictate how therapy is supposed to be, like recently pushing you to do twice a week (which I admit helps me). Rather than letting you lead. Which is what my T tries to do (though he has his share of faults).

Maybe trying someone else, even for just a few sessions, could help you figure out what you want to do,

He's gone for a week. He just happened to be leaving on the anniversary of my dad's death which I had been struggling with. We're going to chat via phone call. The first one was this morning and then again on Thursday. He said if something came up before then to email him. He's apparently worried about me.

LOL. After 4 weeks of consistently exercising, i dont have that uncontrollable high i get from dieting, but i DO have a bit more energy to make it thru the day. AND have a little fun on the side Not IRL, of course. Just on the side of the couch!

BTW if you like dark stuff Fractured is a movie that just came out on Netflix.

So good.



But Peri is not a good name for a girl.

If I was a T I would care about my clients too.

I'm sorry for your loss NP.

I'm glad he's willing to set up and support you through this time.

H and I are planning on going to nightfall tonight, it's at this western town that was built as a movie set for all kinds of western type movies (including McClintock! is the only one I can think of). they turn the entire town into one giant haunted house for the month of october every year. have shows/rides/other attractions and food and stuff. it's a lot of fun and we have gone every year since we moved here.

I've got my eye on that film so good to know you liked it. The trailer looks very intriguing.

I've been wanting to watch Fractured too but haven't yet. One of these evenings when h is out on a job I'll have to do that.

Speaking of westerns, this short film with Nick Offerman on youtube is pretty good.

I ended up going to Walgreens and got a bag of chocolate covered peanuts. Yum.

Fracture is a great movie. I was searching for it a few months ago to show my dad. Couldn't find it so I bought it.
