Hello and welcome to the home of Word of the Week. A nice and simple weekly linky, with everyone welcome to pop by and share. The idea of the linky is to reflect back on your past week and share it with us. It’s great if you can sum it up in a word or phrase, hence giving us your Word of the Week. My word this week is ‘Time’ and you can read more about that below.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING IF YOU WISH TO LINK UP! FROM NOW ON, THOSE NOT FOLLOWING THE RULES WILL BE DELETED.
I’m not totally strict on using just a word or phrase. But please try to stick to the theme of summing up your week. There are not too many rules with this linky, just remember to read at least another couple of posts in the link up after adding your link. And please only add one post to the link up each week, multiple posts will be deleted. I will read and comment on all posts and tweet them out for you. I also have a Pinterest board devoted to Word of the Week. Please add the badge below to your post so that others may find us and join in. If you comment or tweet then please use the hashtag #WotW

MY WORD OF THE WEEK – Time
This week I’m choosing Time as my word of the week.
I think this week has proven to me that time is something really important. It’s been a quiet week for me but I’ve had to get up and get my son to school every day. It’s a new time table for us after such a long break.
I had my Covid treatment which aided my recovery and this was something done in due time which helped me from getting worse.
I got through Mother’s day which is not a good time for me for several reasons, but it can be hard for other’s too so I know I’m not alone.
I’m taking my time with my driving. I know I need to pick it up and start doing more, but at the moment the occasional drive is all I can manage. I have been to pick my Little Man up from school, but he won’t let me drive home. He doesn’t actually remember the days when I used to be the main driver, before I got sick. It was a long time ago, but it doesn’t seem that long to me.
I’m taking time to recover from my recent traumas, It’s been 9 months now and sometimes it seems like no time at all, but then I realise that this is it, this is my life now. It could be worse, but it doesn’t seem fair and I feel sorry for myself too much. I’m getting help now but time is not healing me yet.
Now it’s over to you, what word or phrase sums up your week this week?
Continue to give yourself time and grace to heal from your trauma. Your family is depending on you. Mothers’ day can come with a mix of emotions for real, I know about that from personal experience but motherhood is a lovely thing. Oh, this week I dreamt that I met you and it seemed so real, lol. I hope we get to meet one day.
I hope you get used to your new back to school time table soon. It’s not long until the Easter break, hang on in there.
I am glad your Covid treatment went well.
It must be strange for your Little Man seeing you drive, I hope he lets you drive him home soon.
Sending love and hugs. x
Time is a healer. You are doing great things. Keep going one step at a time xx
I’m happy to hear your CoVid treatment went well. Take your time with your driving, it will come.
Visiting today from #Pocolo

It’s good that you are being kind to yourself and giving yourself time to get used to driving and recovering from traumas. Grief and stress from traumatic events seem to feel even more intense when you are recovering from illness and also during events such as Mother’s Day. You’ve gone through so much and your kids are lucky to have a wonderful mum like you! Our Mother’s Day is in May and last year was a disaster for me as I spent the whole day crying and couldn’t get a grip! What’s worse is, we were celebrating at my aunt’s house and I was so embarrassed. Everyone was very understanding but I don’t want a repeat. So for this year, I have come up with a plan to get away somewhere overnight and just spend it with my husband and two boys and pretend it’s just an ordinary weekend. Praying for brighter days ahead for you Anne xx
That’s a great idea Ruth, I hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day xx
Taking time over things is important. I’m glad your Covid treatment helped and that you got through Mother’s Day ok. It can be such a tough day. Sending you gentle hugs with working through your healing x #WotW
