Jetlag takes about a week to settle I'm told, and I'm sure there's son Celtic wisdom to get over your post viral fatigue How's WH coping with his obcessive routines while travelling? A challenge I would think 😕 Hope this is a time yo rekindle some first love maybe.
Any good churches to visit there? Did you go this morning? Love ancient architecture and history. Churches are great for it. Hugz xox

Hi @Zoe7 @Former-Member @Shaz51 and anyone else around .....

Just quietly going through your updates here, and pleased with all the good news ..... with commiserations for the not-so-good bits, but there are also things to celebrate, like not-news-is-good-news re results @Zoe7 , and a PC cable @Former-Member restoring your function-ability, and so wonderful about your psych ..... @Shaz51 @for your mum, and please do take care of you ❣️

I came home to collecting D2, then cooking dinner for D3 and me, and helping D3 move around with her bad back ..... heard from S2 through his sister, so he's okay, and awake ....

Sortibg a bit of uni stuff now before I can get to bed.

@Faith-and-Hope A busy day and evening agan yesterday for you Hon. Glad to hear S2 is okay but I know you miss not having him around. I hope D3s back is improving - so hard to get around and do anything with a bad back

@Shaz51 @Former-Member @Adge No news from the GP so I am taking that as good news = she would have called if there was an issue.

I slept much better last night - meds certainly helped - and have doxzd on and off all morning since feeding the fur babies.Had a horrible dream that I lost Toby so waking to find him asleep above me on the couch was so good, Can't imagine life without him

Feeling very uneasy about not being at work but know I can't help it. It super sucks though. I will have so much to catch up on when I return - missed an important meeting on Tuesday that was all about admin processes at the school. It was one I needed to be at to understand how things worked at this school so I will need to catch up on all that when I can.

Next week I will have meetings after school on Monday and Tuesday, then GP appointment Wednesday and Cat goes in to the vet on Friday for the day. I am supposed to take her in at 8am but that does not give me enough time to et to work on time so I will need to call and see if I can take her in earlier. I know there used to be someone there from 7.30 so hoping that is still the case.

Parked on the couch again today ...already bored but again nothing I can do. Pain is a little better today but it needs to decrease a lot more before I can go back to work - can't be there on one of my meds because I can't function properly. Nausea better - having meds to help with that too. Feeling like a walking pharmacy again but it is all helping. Being able to lay down is as well - sitting is still an issue but the couch is comfortable to lay on so I have made it my home again for today. Tobes is of course keeping me company - either snuggling in beside me for tummy tickles or sleeping on the top of the couch. Cat is in her room - so both fur babies are happy 😺🐶👍💕

Hey @Bimby2 What are you up to today?

Re: Far and Away

Hi @Zoe7 ... well I'm hoping you're right about 'no news being good news'. I expect you are because if there were anything amiss they would have been pretty quick to tell you I'd imagine.

Oh my .. arent those dreams awful where you lose your pets? I have them sometimes and its really awful. Sometimes I dream that Holly stops breathing and I cant revive her. I wake in a panic and shake the poor baby and frighten her. But she's alive at least. Yeah I know what you mean about life being so different without them. I seem to have gained a stray cat here. Quite a beautiful black cat with white paws. Its been hanging around the gardens and running off when it sees me for a couple of months. I think he/she roams around several neighbours, but nobody is claiming it as theirs. Anyway lately I have found it on one of several of our outdoor comfy chairs looking like it owns the place. Holly has checked it out and doesnt have a problem with it being there. Checks and sniffs around every day to see if its been back, but is not aggressive or anything with it. I have been patting the cat and stroking it, and it is now readily accepting some attention. Doesnt appear underfed, so clearly its getting plenty to eat. Probably enough mice around it sustain it I'd say, and occasional birds. One of our neighbours has cats also and I'm thinking this stray gets a bit from there as well. Anyway I'll see how things go. I would never be able to have an inside cat, my allergy would not suffer it. But I am quite happy to have him/her outside. And clearly Holly doesnt mind. She has never had a problem with cats, and got on well with Mums cats when I took her down there with me.

Yes I can fully understand your concerns about not being at the school during the early weeks. And yes, it sucks. But everyone knows there is nothing to be done about it. You will catch up and I'm sure everyone will bring you up to scratch on all the new admin processes that you need to know about. All very unfortunate and not ideal, but not such a big thing either.

Yep a big week for you next week too. Its hard being bored right now, but better than being in severe pain. Good to hear the nausea has settled somewhat.

Done a big grocery shop in town today. Been running on empty cupboards and fridge most of this week, as I didnt feel up to going out and shopping. But done now and all put away. So nice having a PC thats working again! 😃 I have been and done all my online banking and payments yesterday and into today, so all good there now. Not having been able to do so for past 5 weeks has been very unsettling. I think I am starting to breathe a little easier all around.
