Woe is me....

...that is how I feel today.  I think I'm entitled to a small amount of self pity.  The question that keeps going round in my head is "why is me", "when will the bad stuff stop"?

Two weeks after my burn I am trying to be positive - yesterday I had my first ever facial, manicure & pedicure.  I also had my hair cut.  I went to my usual hairdressers - The Hairdressers http://www.thehairdressersnottingham.co.uk/.  They were extremely wonderful and I had the most relaxing time. 

Today I feel very down and teary.

Then again - is it because it's a Sunday?  Sunday's have always been the day I have felt most alone and down.  As a child I would take myself off pretending to meet non existent friends but would wander the streets on my own perhaps venturing into a park to view from a safe distance families having fun together or friends playing.  When shops started to open on a Sunday I would wander around these just to be around people.

Sundays heighten my sense of loss and my feelings of worthlessness.

I keep looking at my pretty painted fingers and toes (vain & superficial I know) to brighten me up.  This morning I had a clean and tidy around the house. 

To help me a heal a positive attitude is paramount but I must also acknowledge and accept what has happened.  Extremely difficult.
