Next: Test, Upset, Halo
Jan 9 2013 in Community Caregiving Journal by Denise
Our next three words for our Community Caregiving Journal are:
Test
Upset
Halo
You can write about each separately in three separate posts. You can write about all three in one post. You can write sentences using all three words.
In essence, you can write about the words in the way that feels right for you.
Here’s how our Community Caregiving Journal work: Every Wednesday, I’ll post three new words for you to write about. Don’t worry about keeping up every week if that seems too difficult. Just write about any of the words whenever you can.
Any member of Caregiving.com can contribute. When you write posts for our Community Caregiving Journey, select “Community Caregiving Journal” as the category. Need help posting to the site? Just send me a private message through the site or send me an email. Not a member of Caregiving.com? Just join here. Worried about the privacy of your family and your caree? Simply create your account with a user name that describes you but isn’t your real name (like ejourneys).
Our journal complements your blog posts about your day. Continue to post updates about your situation, including the challenges and successes, in your own blog. (Want to share your caregiving days by starting a blog? Just send me a private message through the site or send me an email.)
(Note: We’ll continue the conversation about each week’s three words in our Three-Word Journaling class, available through our CarePASS. To purchase yours, just go here.)

Test: It feels like there are many tests of whether I can handle things without freaking out. Talking with insurance companies, multiple times, for the same issue. Trying to make sense of medically caused behavior issues that affect my relationship with my husband. Trying to react positively when our daughters don’t understand why dad needs help.
Upset: How I feel when the husband I used to know is too fatigued to show emotion, who used to be generous and is now like a selfish child at times, when work and home are all on red alert at the same time.
Halo: What people wear when they ask me, “How are you doing?” and they really want to know and will listen. jWhat my friends wear when they surround me like a cocoon when all hell breaks loose and bring me tea and silliness and laughter.
