24 kimonos done! + PB

Evening~~

Last night I watched the final to Picnic at Hanging Rock
such a weird ending
feel like I watched 6 hours worth of a program i didnt fully understand XD
good tho
then I watched another episode of 8 out of 10 does countdown
it was good and i laughed, caught up with that now
its been such a long time since ive watched tv with my parents
i had a stretch on the sofa and my knee came out of place
oh my god i could have been sick
such a vile disgusting feeling and pain
i spent a while trying to get it back in
i could feel it knocking trying to go back in whilst i walked on it
oh it was gross and i said i wouldnt be running in the morning if it was still out
ive never had so much trouble with my knee joints since i started running
im always trying to run on softer ground to help my knees
my joint crack and come out of place cus of my Hyper Mobility Syndrome
but certain things aggravates it
i fell asleep around midnight so not a bad night for me really

woke up at 6:45am as a stupid wasp came into my room and was just buzzing
on my window it did my head in so i got up after a few mins
stupid thing i released it but felt like killing the bugger
i got up and felt round with my knee and i think keeping it in one position all night had settled it down as it seemed to be back in
i went downstairs dad was up as usual
he was putting the pots away from the dishwasher when i heard a smash and i knew on gut instinct that it was one of MY mugs
and i was right!
i couldnt believe it was my Lisa Parker Hare mug T^T 
ive had it years and its my sodding favourite!!!!!
it was totally lost to us tho as it smashed into hundreds of pieces i kid you not
it went everywhere...at 7am
think we've hoovered up 3 times since it happened as we kept finding these tiny ant sized white mug pieces very odd the way it smashed
i was gutted and have since looked for a replacement online
but its discontinued which i knew it would be
i moved on cleaned my pigs out, stretched and had break fast
and went to park run

i wasnt in the mood to run
i saw Guy before the run started so i spoke with him
as the race started i could feel loads of adrenaline it was unreal
i tried hard this week actually
it was my 10th run
after the race i was sure i was gonna see my breakfast
i saw guy after the race and spoke with him til he left
he has so many hobbies and has such a great level of fitness
i said id see him again no doubt at park run
i went to wait with 2 people from mum's walking club
i did feel ok actually i was fine
i noticed that someone from my high school geography class finished the run too
i didnt like her in school so i didnt bother speaking to her
but i was silently pleased that id finished before her XD
mum finished and we set off home

i looked up the park run results and i got a new PB just a few seconds quicker than last week so i did it in 27:19 so thats alright, 
i looked at Guy he did 25mins and it was only his 2nd park run
i was 115th out of 310 people so not bad huh
the girl from my year he quickest time was 31 mins and shes done it 67 times!!!
i felt kinda good to say ive done it 10 times
not sure how much longer i will keep it up for tho
running hasnt grabbed me ive just done it

I showered and sat round on laptop til lunch
had lunch then did my final 2 kimonos!!!
24 are done!

i laid them out in the order id like for them to be sewed
but upon laying them out did i realise that they quite mingle into one...
i believe that the design needs to be changed
so i have decided that each and every kimono will be outlined in a 1" black border
ahhhhhh more work!
but if im not gonna be happy with the finished result then theres no point and i will put in the extra time to get it how i want it

i felt a bit fed up mentally
just wasnt right really
felt like giving up with it all and was swamped with thoughts
i couldnt cope or bare to have the whole day like this
so i slept
cant say i felt that much better afterwards 
i got up and had a brew whilst reading manga
then i went into the roof to get my playstation one down for tomorrow~

i sat looking for stuff online
just having a browse and sorting some stuff out
ordered some japanese learning books to try help me as i want to improve
i sat and did some japanese 
i need to work harder for it but my head has been so busy and tired its hard
having the focus i need for it 

tomorrow
i might go for a run not sure yet guess i see how i feel
then i might start cutting the 100 strips i think i need for the quilt XD 
then i will get ready to go see mia
making adam walk to her house as its between mine and his house
he used to walk by it for high school so i know he's capable
looking forward to it~

Cardcaptor Sakura Hair Bow

Evening~

Look who was up til 1am again!
man its getting tiresome in more ways than one!
sick to death of not being able to sleep even tho im shattered
before bed I went on pokemon SoulSilver to see what I had on it
and thought about restarting it but havent found the time or effort
then at 10pm I went downstairs to find my parents watching
8 out of 10 does countdown
not seen it agessss! it was good actually i laughed loads
which doesnt help with the whole winding down for bed thing XD
good tho
we've got the last episode of Picnic at Hanging Rock to watch too~

I woke up at 7:45am
i could not be arsed to get out of bed
which isnt like me but its those Calms tablets ive been taking past few days
they dont sedate me but just make me groggy when i wake up
didnt get out of bed til 8am
whereas normally when i wake im up 
i couldnt be arsed with the day even
but i found the motivation somewhere and went for a run
showered, shoved breakfast down me, no brew or dried my hair
and went out with mum

we just went round a few shops
we didnt get anything really
i got 2 pairs of pants reduced to £1 each, bargain!
a pair of jeggings reduced to £2
and sunglasses reduced from £15 to £2
ive got 1 pair of glasses and i worry about them breaking and not having a back up

we went for a hot chocolate and cake then a walk
i was quite tired from running then a walk but i got on with it
had lunch when i came home and almost fell asleep on the sofa
i was tired, headache, sicky
just felt off
not only that ive been a bit weaker mentally today
just not handled being around people in general really
think i hear or see things
its quite tiresome! 

I wasnt in the mood to do my last two kimonos 
so i made a hair bow

using the cardcaptor sakura ribbon i got this week

its a pinwheel bow never made one before but i didnt want a bog standard bow
precious ribbon this!

I then went to do one of the two hoodies i got from manchester
chose to do the pink one as the patches i ordered for it came today
so thought might as well 
so i stitched 2 patches on, a couple of buttons and a pair of cat ears :3
so its no longer plain it looks cute actually 
i will photograph it tomorrow

that was my day
so ive done 2 exercises and done 2 crafts things :)

Mia txted me to say games night is on this sunday!
so thats a trip into my loft to get the playstation one out XD
thats our night basically playstation one + pizza
me mia adam rob
from 4pm this sunday~
should be good and something to look forward to

tomorrow I've got parkrun
double digits tomorrow it will be my 10th!
not gonna go mental just gonna get round XD
just hope i dont have another moment like i did last week

Photos from yesterday and saying whats on my mind

Evening

I just dont sleep -____-
i woke up at 7:45am
I decided seeing as it was raining that I'd dance
I did 25mins i was dripping from my forehead and lip
like it was humid or something as i have no idea why i was
sweating THAT badly
i felt my dancing sucked today but i think some bits are sinking in better
i expect more from my dancing
sometimes i feel like joining a dance school so i can improve
but im unsure where the qualification would get me really
other than me enjoying it of course XD

I did 2 more kimonos bringing the total to 22
so 2 more to go!!!

Adam came to see me...
i havent seen him since id had that tiff and i knew he could tell i was off
with him cus i was
i had so much going in my head
the more confused and unsure i am the more  i retreat and so does my emotions
i felt pretty emotionless if im honest

eventually it came out why i was in the mood i was
i told him everything that bothers me with the relationship
i could tell it was hurting him and i did not for one second enjoy it
it had to be done tho
he's had it said to him now anyway
i felt better for getting it off my chest
what will come of it i  have no idea
he was very quiet for a long time
i did say "if i feel someone is holding me back and things arent going anywhere im gonna leave" dont think he liked that as he hugged me at that point. 
yeah you will freak out when i mention leaving

and surprise surprise we did nothing all afternoon
we just do nothing
and its so dull
i still feel feelings for him i know i do
but how long those feelings will keep going for i dont know
i havent walked away from him yet anyway
but im not sure what will happen
i know we're not looking at mortgages or children or marriage 
theres no big step to work to we''re only at the stage of enjoying
one anothers company day to day
but if im not enjoying the day to day stuff then the harder stuff such as mortgages 
just isnt gonna happen or be right
who knows
single life doesnt frighten me
sometimes id welcome it as this is a lot of hassle and confusion 
we''ll see
i'll give it a lil longer 

we went to his house mid afternoon
where i told his dad that his collection of stamps hes worked on for years is only worth the glue on the back of those stamps. he wasnt impressed XD funny tho adam was laughing hard
i left for yoga anyway

yoga was a lot of holding positions
we didnt have karen but i still feel ive worked muscles
unfortunately before i went to yoga my calf, the same calf, went into spasm
damn well hurts it has nothing on cramp
and it hurt to put weight on 
i stretched and stretched to try and help it before yoga 
but still hurt throughout the session and even now!

tomorrow
if i wake early enough i will go for a run
then i believe me and mum are going shopping to shops on the other end of the city
should be good :)

I thought id share photos from yesterday
ice skating and our bentos :D

A long overdo catch up with Ed~~

Evening~~~

I had a brilliant time with Mia last night
didn't get home til 10:30pm
we laughed, and caught up, talked about my relationship, my mental health
at the end of the evening mia said
"i've beaten everyone at work doing the plank for the longest, we did it in the staff room and i won! i bet i could beat you easily"
i sighed know where this was headed at 10:15pm
so she got fired up over something so simple as doing the plank...
i wasn't arsed 
im not competitive, my other half is tho she could only think about challenging mia
mia given the chance wanted to match her not me
so she even put music on...
jesus
so we started holding it
at 2:49 mia gave in, i was very very impressed she held for so long considering she doesnt do any form of exercise i gave in after she did. id had enough and could see no point in putting myself through that strain any longer.
she was annoyed and said she'd rematch me at some point
honestly

this morning i could feel that id held the plank for that long
i wasnt gonna go a run or anything as i had set the day to Ed
praying that he came anyway and didnt let me down!
i got ready ether way

he did eventually text me to say he was leaving at 10am
by 11:20am i heard this engine pulling up my drive way
oh my god his motorbike *0* amazing!!
i was very impressed indeed
i wanted a go so badly but knew i would not have the strength to hold such a monster up

he came in and we had a brew i introduced him to Oz 
and he saw my girls
by 12 we were headed into the city centre
we stopped by ice skating first
god it was cold, my hands had lost all feeling - next time bring gloves!
we skated round i was like a brick when i first
but i soon loosened up
we skated for an hour it wasnt too busy even tho its summer break

we left there at 1:45pm to go get food
we walked by a Japanese restaurant and Ed suggested we have Japanese
i do really want to try japanese food, ive only had snippets 
and no one else will eat it, Ed has loads and loads of asian food due to him being Chinese born British so im gonna get no better chance or better teacher
so thats what we did
i got to try a few things ive always wanted to try
jasmine tea which i loved
tofu which meh wasnt amazing
proper teriyaki chicken
japanese dumplings 
miso soup 
it was all really good and better than i had expected
i even gave sushi another go as every sushi ive had hasnt been nice but i actually liked this one so i was happy to know i could stomach japanese food if i ever get the opportunity to go japan

we walked round the city a bit
i picked up 2 pairs of new tights from charity shop along with a bunny jumper
then we came home really
we sat a brew with my Oz who was licking Ed's hands
honestly that rabbit will befriend anyone -____-

ive been doing my best messing around with Ed today
and ive kept that closeness we once shared, to a degree 
of course some things arent appropriate anymore but we can still do some things
like i held his hands and linked arms and gave him a couple of hugs
he laid his head on my lap as played with his hair, we tickled one another
but i never saw it as anything dirty or 'wrong' cus i love Ed
i love him as much as any other friend and that love wont go further nor do i wish for it to be taken further we are simply good friends 
so when he said "i feel like ive ruined your relationship"
i said "why?"
he said "cus of what ive done today ive been bad and im sorry"
it made me think 'is what ive done bad?' 
i told him it isnt cus its not
if we were kissing or anything then sure but we werent 
so i was fine with everything
i could tell given the chance he'd do more and he confessed that
he also told me that he didnt see me for a while as he didnt want to come between me and adam he also didnt know if he would be able to 'behave' himself whilst i was in a relationship 
i knew he wouldnt be able to not touch me cus its not the relationship we have/had
we've been close and i dont want to totally lose that it would be mean and stuff
so i feel it was kept at a safe level for Ed and for my relationship
i have morals damn it, im no slut or anything XD

he eventually left at 7:30pm
i watched him kit his bike up and i got to sit on it and rev it
my god the power
id love a go i was almost begging for a go
but because i knew i wouldnt be able to hold the bike up i didnt
theyre soooooo big and he said his isnt even the biggest 

since then ive just showered and done my diary really
it was a really good day and Ed treated me to everything too >< 
after all this time he still takes care of me
i hope he gets home safe 
mum said it was good to see me genuinely happy today
she says she can see how good my relationship is with ed and how much i enjoy myself round him and have a laugh. it was good to see
she says im not like that adam XD
speaking of him, hes sent off for his provisional driving license
not sure whats triggered that
he'd left me a txt saying he's sent off for it
i said "really,like really really?"
he said "yeah cost me £14 coming in two weeks"
i said "sorry, just wait a sec"
he said "what?"
i said "i was just lighting the fireworks id saved for such occasion"
he said "cheeky git, were they good fireworks?"
i said "we'll theyd almost gone out of date"
point match me~

tomorrow im seeing adam for the first time since we had that tiff on
friday night
so not sure how it will be but we can see
wont be long anyway as he has work i have yoga
gonna run or dance in the morning
then sew~
i will share photos tomorrow of today when i get the photos from ed off his phone

Could be end of the line for help

Evening~~

I took one too many sleeping tablets last night
didnt really help
fell asleep around 12:30 so i guess it was a bit better
but i had been in bed since 9:45pm
I did my nails last night~

quite impressed at the neatness~

I got up at 7:45am
i reluctantly went for a run
passed my dad running and he was in his van
i waved he waved but didnt smile or even look at me really
i wondered two things
1. did he realise it was his daughter?
2. if he did realise, does he really not like me or something? why not smile
he didnt look impressed with me

I came home and showered, had breakfast, and went into a town
i picked up fabric, facial scrub, face pack, new socks, cereal
not much but it was needed and luckily i didnt have to go all over like i first thought i only went into two shops :)

I came home at 11am and had my first brew of the day
sat with mum for a bit as she had just come home also and i chose to make the most of her company
after lunch i did 2 more kimonos
only have 4 more to go!!!
i also practised a bit of dancing
i did a yosakoi and beat generation and i do feel theres some improvement with beat generation it doesnt feel like a quick messy effort to get all the moves in how i first started out XD

at 3pm I went to psychiatrist 
he says hes gonna look into applying for funding so i can see ether a specialist for dissosiative identity disorder or to see basically i higher psychiatrist
but considering other people are worse than me i may not 'qualify' so to speak
he hasnt made another appointment with me and i kinda felt like he washing his hands of me because theres nothing he personally can do as he's not that qualified in this area and i have refused medication.

i came home feeling a bit deflated with all
as im anxious as to what the next step is
i have a gut feeling that no help will be available to me
i will finish my sessions with the psychologist and that will be it
but i could be wrong
time will tell

i came home did some cross stitching and sat with Oz
had second shower of the day as i always feel dirty from that mental health buliding
smells like very cheap air freshener and no windows open
icky i felt i always do
i did see mum's friend who works there tho
she told me well done on my PB from saturday and that she''ll see me saturday down there

tonight i am seeing mia
looking forward to it
just hope we dont talk about my mental health too much
as im fed up of that topic for a while

tomorrow i believe Ed is coming over!
hopefully hopefully
fingers crossed
and we said we'd go ice skating
we shall see

Determined to do nothing

Evening

Well guess who was up til 2am
yup
I just cant seem to sleep
just become like wired in the late pm hours
i have to get up as im aching in bed from laying there that bloody long
went to bed at 9pm last night as i was so damn tired
i stayed in bed til 12:30 then went back to bed 1:45am
after doing some stretches, dancing, reading
im so damn tired 
my eyes and eye lids sting
i was up at 6:50am
so every morning for god knows how long ive only had 5-6 hours sleep
plus the amount of exercise and stuff im filling my day with
its exhausting!

When I saw mum this morning she said "oh you look white. You lips even look blue"
how is that possible? how can i look so corpse like in the morning?

I got ready to see karen
for a massage ive been needing
she says she can feel ive got muscles these days XD
we talked about bits and she asked me questions about my mental health condition that dissosiative identity disorder. i didnt mind tho
at the end of the massage karen said "you have more colour now, you dont look quite so vampiress now" XD thanks, I must have looked rough this morning im guessing! 
i left there and was home for 10:30am for a needed shower

from there i didnt do much
i honestly felt like death
but i pushed myself to do 2 more kimono squares
i went wrong a few times but i got there
did a fair bit of cross stitch today
went to walk to the shop with mum
tidied up a bit 
it has been unbelievably hard to NOT exercise today
like stupidly hard
its all i can think about that i havent done something
im used to doing AT LEAST 30 mins everyday
and to take a day off it torture
but i was determined to do it as ive had a massage and been exercising so hard my body aches a lot so i know i need the rest its just very hard having the rest
crazy really but it feels like something i need to do is exercise
i have been disciplined today tho and not exercised
im back on it tomorrow tho
in a way it picked a good day for my day off as im so shattered honestly
body feels like a heavy weight including my eyes
theyve been sore all day, theyre sore from me rubbing them awake so much

i feel ive done nothing today
but its been necessary 
tomorrow i will be back on my game

tomorrow im ether going into a town in the morning or i may go city centre 
ether way im by myself
then at 3pm i have psychiatrist
then 6:30pm i see mia
id like to do a run in the morning also~

a doodle ive done as part of adams present

16 done~

Konbanwa~

I didnt sleep well
I went to bed at 9pm shattered but could I sleep?
at 11pm I went downstairs for pain killers and sleep tablets
at midnight I got up went downstairs for cereal, a bit of dancing and yoga
fell asleep around 1am

Luckily taking the sleeping tablet meant i wasnt awake at 7am
as usual and living off 5-6 hours sleep
nope I woke up at 9:15am! the latest i've woken in days
I still got up and went for a run tho
it was cold and drizzly but I got it done, quite quickly too
i showered and didnt bother with breakfast at it was 11:30am
so i waited for lunch and had an amazing lunch X3

I sat and did some sewing then I thought I'd show the 16 I have done!
just 8 more to go~~

they're looking good :)

Adam had texted me "what time you coming up"
hmm convenient at 1:30pm
how the sundays have been going for the past however weeks is
adam wakes about 11:30am from doing two 12 hour shifts
he walks to the shops for lunch
he eats lunch
then he texts me saying he's ready for me
i go up to his house
i sit there talking to his parents whilst adam zones off on his phone
i paint his mum's nails
i sit round. i sit round some more
i go home
its dull, its boring and im sick of the boring routine our relationship is
to be honest not a lot grabs me about my relationship currently
so i text him back saying "not sure if i am coming up today"
he says "oh how come?"
i say "cus i dont think im in the mood for the monotonous Sunday"
he said "oh ok then"
and left it at that
i never not wanted to see him, if he wanted to walk to my house i wouldnt have stopped him but he stayed home doing not a lot with himself 
i didnt feel bad cus i was fed up with it all and thought id maybe get annoyed with him 

I went on my laptop and did a bit more work on adam's birthday present
not that i felt i wanted to do it but gotta be done
I got up and went for a 50 min walk
after doing 25min run and sewing i still had energy for that walk
trying to tire myself so i sleep tonight
so looking forward to my bed!
i got really sweaty walking it was so humid from the rain

i came in and had a brew and let the girls stretch in the hall
then my parents came back an hour later
i helped out a bit with stuff with mum
then went for a shower as i was cold

adam asked if i wanted to go bowling maybe next week
and i feel bitter towards it as even tho i know he's trying to suggest things i know its ME who has to drive and take us there and its grating on me
when he said months ago he was gonna learn to drive he hasnt even bothered applying for his license he just sits back in the passenger seat all the time happy and content to do nothing
and it is bothering me
i HATE it when people say they'll do something and dont actually do it
yeah like i said nothing in this relationship is doing anything for me lately
and its making me jaded and not wanting to see him cus im almost wondering what the point of any of it is. 
i know i need to talk to him about it
just dont feel that happy about stuff 

I could tell he'd missed me today not to mention he'd told me he's missed me
but a part of me feels 'yeah youve missed the routine of me being there' i dont feel he's missed ME hes just missed what he usually takes for granted to happen. I feel like a source of entertainment for him and even his parents. and i wasnt in the mood to play that game this week. I wanted to break the routine. 
he never takes me anywhere cus he cant because he cant drive
he never comes up with anything to do
he doesnt have a social life
he doesnt do anything
he is doing a job that 16-18 year olds do 
he stuck in time
and i hate that, i can never bare to watch time sit still
i fight
ive got to much fight in me
so much determination and motivation 
he hasnt, hes happy and content to watch life flutter by
and if thats what he wants to do then fine
but im moving on if he wants to do that as i feel he's holding me back
and just irritating me

tomorrow i have got karen for a massage at 9am
so i am taking the day off from exercise
no running or anything
day off
it will be very difficult for me!

tuesday i have psychiatrist at 3pm
at 6:30pm im seeing mia finally

wednesday i might be seeing Ed!!!!

thursday might see adam or make him wait til sunday

friday going shops on the other end of town with mum

so i got stuff lined up this week~
