And for putting language to something I couldn’t put my finger on. In the moment, I didn’t connect a difficult weekend with a need to scrub the apartment from top to bottom but of course, they are connected. Thank you for that clarity 💕
Of course - I loved that piece. I also think a lot about your piece where you talked about it not being better as it is not over yet. (paraphrasing but I think you will know which one). I think it is similar sentiments and I relate a lot to that type of hope. I guess is quite similar to the cleaning process - it is tangible and not fake positive.
I know false positivity can be the worst - at least we kind of know what it is now. There was a time about 10 years ago when it felt like it was required. And yes absolutely - let’s celebrate that process!
Many thanks for the shout-out Catriona 💕

I don't think there's anything more unhelpful that fake positivity! Here's to writing about the mess and the grime, and what comes afterwards!

You are so wise! In addition to scrubbing I have also felt the urge to purge unwanted and excess possessions. Also related.
Haha thank you Caroline. Yes also love the power of giving stuff away - I believe in the urge!
