I can’t cope

OOOOOhhhh! I like that! An ACE moment! I need to remember that. Feel free to keep reminding me. We need a thread called "What's your ACE moment?" @Captain24

Oh no! Your back! So your back 'clicked'?

No wonder you had to stay in bed! Can you walk, or do you have to crawl?

ACE is something that I learnt in hospital. @tyme Its to help with th low periods but to help maintain the good moments.

It didn’t actually click just pinched. I can still walk just can’t stand upright. It’s actually more comfortable on the lounge than in bed with 2 dogs.

I did my homework for my psych too. I had to do a task jar. Just little notes of things to do instead of going through my SP as I find it triggering.

Oh no... you're making remember those painful days. I remember drinking from a straw and crawling/sliding across the floor to get to the loo @Captain24

Here's another story. I told me niece this morning to do everything she needed to so I could take her to kmart to get her the putty she wanted. She said "Mum's not going to let me anyway. Knowing her, she's collecting data on me. Zero: X was naughty here. One: She was talking back here. Two: X hit her brother.... BRUH she's probably making a graph of my naughty data!"

This kid. I don't know where she gets these ideas from.

It’s not as bad as has been in the past but my mood isn’t helping. @tyme

OMG… how does she come up with this stuff? It’s so random. Lots of her stories are random.

Any stories of your nephew? Or is he just the quiet one against to two girls

I like Robert with he’s appreciation of all animals. @outlander. I’m not sure that him and Julia work together overly well though.

My nephew is off the charts right now @Captain24 . Been bouncing off the walls big time. High as the hills since this morning. I could hear him from next door. He was 'singing'.

You know when kids get in that 'giggly' mood? That's him right now. He's rolling on the floor laughing and laughing and my sister has had enough. Oh, and he's just 'accidentally wee'd in his pants' (from laughing so much). My nephew is the 'clown'. He plays an 'air guitar' and strums away all day while singing.

As for my niece.... I don't know. She's going to be a HUGE handful when she's a teen.

With your back, does a heat pack help? Also, does it sort of 'click' back in?

Oh.. so all three are full on! @tyme

I think it’s good that he is able to laugh uncontrollably. I get that it’s be driving your sister crazy though. I thought he must be quiet but if his the clown he would keep you entertained as well.

I know you are waiting for them to grow up and then leave. I’d be leaving before she reaches the teenage years!! 😜

Has she been sleeping in your bed or have you been able to sleep on you own to help get quality sleep?

Well, she has 5 days in her own bed and 2 days in mine @Captain24 . That's why we had to get the putty this arvo - it's a prize for sleeping 5 days in her own bed @Captain24 . Seriously, I took a photo of her on Saturday night... she was sleeping ACROSS the entire queen bed - diagonally! I hate sleeping with her. My only comfort is knowing that it's not for long because she'll grow up and not want a bar of me...

And yes, I'm already looking for properties because it wont' be long before they grow up and I move out!

I'm guessing that because of your back, you haven't put the shelves up yet since you bought them? I still can't picture them.

Is it sorta like this?
