Sorry, another post from me. Struggled today with feeling emotionally fragile. And then I had just enough energy when I got back home to start cooking the prepped meal (can't remember the name but it's a veggie version of hello fresh) only to discover that the gnocchi hadn't been put in the bag. So I turned the oven off and cycled to the shop.
I could smell the oil from the fish and chip shop next door, the music was too loud, there was too many people and the gnocchi wasn't where I expected it to be. The queue was so long at the till so I couldn't ask a staff member where it was and I could just feel myself getting more and more overwhelmed. Oh and there was a car alarm beeping outside the shop as well.
Logically I was telling myself I could solve this problem, and just buy something else for dinner, but my little rat brain was just sitting there going 'gnocchi gnocchi gnocchi' on repeat and I couldn't think what else to have.
I don't even like gnocchi that much! I was only having it because I got given the meal prep package. Anyway I managed to wander around the store until I found another gnocchi packet and buy it without crying but when I got home I was just so overwhelmed and exhausted I just ordered food in
