By spreading some gratitude & kindness! 💜 The last 12 months or so have posed challenges, hurdles & hardships for many of us. One of the things that has hit me the hardest is not being able to see or hug my grandad. He’s been in a care home for a few years now due to his dementia, among other things. And although we all know it is the absolute best place for him & we all completely respect, appreciate & agree with the decision made by the government to not allow visitors into care homes to help protect the residents from this dangerous virus- it still doesn’t make not seeing him any easier. I miss him & don’t want him to feel like he’s been forgotten & I don’t want him to forget me, an unfortunate but possible reality for those suffering with dementia 🥺 The one thing that brings me solace throughout these increasingly fraught & disappointing circumstances is knowing how well my granda is being cared for. The wonderful staff at his home are patient, kind & warm & I’m super grateful that he has lovely ladies like them looking after him ❤️ So today I put together this little hamper for all the care workers at his home just to show them what they mean to me & my granda! Ladies, you deserve a little ‘me’ time after all you do for others.. Hopefully this little lot will help you relax & unwind 💕 It’s easy to be angry at the moment. It’s easy to be frustrated, I’ve spent all last month fighting with myself- trying to keep positive & upbeat when ultimately I just feel low & lost. But I’m refusing to bring that mindset into February with me- enough of the pity party now Patto!! 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ We need to stop stressing about the things we can’t control & start focusing on the things we can! Today I chose to get out of my head and extend a little kindness to others- which always improves my mood.. And what can I say?! So far, so good 😂😍 (well I haven’t cried or had a gin yet and it’s almost 11am so I’m going to call it a win?? 😂😂) I’m not naive enough to think that kindness is going to fix the world & everything that is going on at the moment, but it can’t hurt can it? 💜 And don’t forget to be kind to yourself too.」2月1日 20時06分
