I can’t cope

I’m thinking I might need to get a switch @Jynx. I’d have to check whether you can get Mario all stars and Mario cart. Maybe one day

It’s so painful right now. It hurts so much going to bed too. I can’t find a comfortable position that doesn’t hurt. I’m scared if I tell the oh&s guys how sore it is, then they may make me see a dr. I see enough medical people!

Do you have any exciting adventures coming up?

@Captain24 ohhh do it! My sister got one for her son, but she plays it more than him! I was just talking to @Bow about the Switch too, and recommended to her two games: Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild (my sister swears by it haha) and Animal Crossing (which I've read about online as being really relaxing and good for mental health). I'm considering getting a Switch eventually just so I can play Zelda haha. But right now focusing on new PS5 and all the pretty pretty games I can play hehe.

I totally get that, having more appts to go to would definitely be really annoying! At the end of the day though, if it means less pain in the future and not forcing yourself to do things at work that could end up making it worse, might it be worth it?

Hmm adventures... I am potentially flying up to NSW in early March to stay with fam, it's my Dad's 70th. I wanna surprise my nephew with a visit too, he misses me heaps haha.

I'm also taking some time off in March to help out a good friend of mine. He's a lighting tech/creator, and he's doing the lights for a big festival! He needs people to help out with carrying and building and such, I'm soooo excited for him it's such a big opportunity. The festival is like, 8000 people or something, and there's sooo many lasers, projectors, and other lights that he designs and operates.

The stage a couple years ago looked like this:

So you can imagine the kind of work that goes into it! Have you ever been to a festival?

Oh also, I should probably say goodnight! I'm logging off soon. I hope your neck doesn't trouble you too much tonight and you can get some rest. Maybe you need some kind of therapy pillow!

Sending huggles, catch you next week 💜

That stage looks amazing @Jyn. No wonder he needs help. It would be so cool to set up.

Nah never been to a festival, I have been to ‘A day in the green’ once. I’ve led a pretty boring, lonely and sheltered life! I don’t really have much to show for my age.

I didn’t realise the time. I’ve got another 10 hrs before I get home!

I guess I need to find something to do

Have a good night.

Glad you had a good sleep yesterday afternoon, but sorry to hear about your neck being so painful @Captain24

Thanks for your good wishes.

I hope you can get through today and tonight and have another good sleep this afternoon 🤞

Hi

Hey @Captain24 ,

How are you?

I’m sitting at work in the meal room on my own. @tyme. I’ll put my phone away when I get in a truck.

How are you?

Things are pretty good on my side @Captain24

Do you drive the trucks at the moment? Or do you sit with someone? I remember you had issues with your neck so you weren't driving?

Hope your shift is going okay.

• That so good to hear @tyme.
  
  

Im driving for about 7 hrs now but it still really hurts my neck. I’m sick of it being too sore to sleep so I am not pushing it. Plus I have some stuff I need to do on these days off so I don’t want to be sore.

Did you do anything cool in ACT

Ouchy. Please take care. You have one neck and one back. My nephew watch national geographic today. He loves animals. So now he's running around with stuffed animals in his mouth, clutching them at the neck because he know that's how prey are caught. @Captain24

Do you still drive solo? I remember AGES ago, you mentioned you had one day with someone in the truck with you and it was an awesome shift.

In ACT, the best part was the Mint. The tour there was super interesting. I got my special coin I stamped. It's really awesome.
