Far and Away

That actually sounds to me @Faith-and-Hope like you are on the right track to get things done this semester. A smaller edited version of the major assignment will not only help you understand but achieve 2 assignments in one - big 👍 for that once you get your hed around it.

It is also great you are getting your head around concepts and theories foreign to you. You entered this uni journey to learn and expand your knowledge base so you are achieving that ...so proud of you Hon

Like you I have so much to do but not at all motivated right now to do anything. I need the rest but I also know if I don't get back into it soon I will run out of time. I spent a couple of hours after work yesterday organising everything I needed to bring home - still forgot some things so they will need to be done Monday. I could go in this weekend but I haven't used the school alarm system so will ask the cleaner how to use it on Monday for future reference.

Tobes has been a real snuggle puppy since I got home yesterday - think he knows I am a bit down ...happy to have the kisses and cuddles though 🐶 How is Nelly?

HI @Zoe7 @Faith-and-Hope and all I've had a busy week having a rest day today

Enjoy your rest day @Pepsimax I would love one too but unfortunately too much to do for work

@Faith-and-Hope I finally got myself moving and have done a little. Having a break now to do a little housework. Tobes has taken to searching his toy basket for toys he wants so they are everywhere - looks like a toy store in the loungeroom lol Cat is happily snuggled on her main bed in her room so they are both happy right now.

I am feeling a little better this afternoon - still very tired but have to push on. Hope your assignment is going well and you are getting lots of Nelly time. Hugs to you both

I went for my neck massage @Zoe7, but I have also lost my motivation, and have been feeling leaky for the last couple of hours. The bigness of my situation overwhelms me sometimes, and I need to stop and acknowledge those feelings for a while.

I also have to take early intervention / protection over D2 with the current health scare, so that will stop me from attending classes for a while as the situation reveals itself and comes to resolution.

Probably part of my big sad feelings is knowing that I can't control what WH does with his time with her, beyond voicing my concerns, which I have.

I think I need a nap to be able to reset, and get back into my assignment. Nelly is curled up next to me here, andI have dozed off twice just writing this post.

👋 @Pepsimax .... I will be back later.

Is that health scare with WH or D2 @Faith-and-Hope? Either way it affects D2 as you said you can only voice your concerns to WH but he no doubt will do what he likes anyway - grr!

Sitting with you in the leakiness - and so glad you have Nelly curled up next to you ...what a little bundle of joy you have found for yourself at a time it was so much needed 😺💖

It really is a massive thing you are dealing with - and so complex and over reaching in so many ways. I honestly cannot imagine all that you are going through right now and like so many others here wish we could do something to help ease the pressure and pain with it all. What saddens me the most is that you are away from your family and friends and are doing this so much on your own - which does make me admire you even more. Let your truth be your strength and your wisdom your guide - lean on us as much as you need Hon. Love and hugs always 🌹💕😘

Health scare is the virus that is affecting us globally @Zoe7. D2 is more vulnerable within the community, so she needs to be isolated earlier than the health warnings support.

I didn't end up napping, got caught up in a (rare) WH communication .... grrr .... but it has provided a little more agreement and clarity than I had before.

My assignment had gone out the window for now as a result, but I won't be going to church tomorrow around D2's needs, so will try again then. This has turned into a rest day.

Thank you for the love and hugs ..,, much appreciated 💜💕

hello and hugs @Zoe7 , @Faith-and-Hope , @Pepsimax , @Snowie , @Sans911 , @Former-Member , @oceangirl , @BlueBay

had a very big week with appts and with the latest news which i knew it will happen in the future , not sure when

still don`t know but getting things in action , information day all about dialysis and transplants which has been cancelled and then to be tested and go on the waiting list

still taking mum up o the hospital for redressing

yesterday friday Smoky was a darling again , i was dusting and he jumped up and lay right in front of me wanting some attention

during the week it rained so we mowed the last 3 lawns this morning

this afternoon the week has caught up with us and we had a sleep for the afternoon

mum is saying things , i do them and she changes her mind , starting to forget things

having trouble with the car

mr shaz is losing things , can`t find things

Oh I see @Faith-and-Hope and of course you would be worried about D2 - and your other baby dragons. It is best to be safe and keep D2 safe for now 👍

I am glad you are having a rest day too - you need it Hon and I hope you get a little more energy to tackle things again tomorrow. Whilst it is difficult having to have anything to do with WH I am pleased you have a little more agreement and clarity after that conversation - hopefully that helps you move forward a little ...this week at least.

I have just finished organisin the kids art folders. I couldn't be bothered staying longer yesterday to do it but it is done now ...so one thing ticked off the list. They can put all their work in their folder on Monday and that will clean up one large area of our classroom. I have a small group of girls who are doing anti-pollution posters - they started in the first week and are putting them up all over the school ...I have of course encouraged them as having such a social and environmental conscience at such an early age is actually inspiring - very much reminds me of myself at their age!

My plan tonight is to get everything sorted and organised to work on tomorrow, finish signing up the kids for maths online, update our class page (and any individual kids pages I can) and laminate and cut out some things for the classroom - then tomorrow lots of marking also and of course the planning for next week.

Catching up with my sister tomorrow - she needs to get some things from the old house - they have most of the furniture now but still a couple of trips to go. They are likely going to be able to pick up their kitten next weekend so I am hoping to be able to go with them. I will have to see how much I have to do next weekend as it will be a whole day trip - I might just have to meet them at their place when they get home.

So much going on for you @Shaz51 - so much to think about and decisions to make. It certainly is not easy - especially when you are not well and your mum and Mr Shaz are both forgetting things ....very hard my sister

So much for you @Shaz51 at the moment.
hugs coming your way my beautiful sis ❤️
