for those strange people who love rabbits

Good Morning @DownMoreThanUp I have been up for hours. Had a bad night with my mum and a gas scare. It could have very easily turned out very bad.

My sister went into the house last night from the rumpus room to get a heartburn tablet and as soon as she walked into the house, she could smell gas. The whole house was full of it. We haven't worked out what happened yet, but mum wasn't cooking anything, so we think she might have knocked one of the knobs on the stove and it turned on without her noticing. She said that it was 30 mins since she went to the kitchen, so the gas was filling up the house for 30 minutes. My sister opened all the doors and windows. Except we couldn't get to mum's window, so my partner put a fan in the doorway of her room to suck the gas out.

It was so lucky that my sister needed to get the heartburn medication, otherwise the gas could have been filling the house all night, and I don't think mum would have survived that, let alone the rabbit and my cat. Mum was a little groggy when my sister went in. But when my partner checked on her later when he removed the fan, he said that she looked ok. Phew that was a close and very scary one.

I have some running around to do for my mum this afternoon with doctors & chemist etc, then I can hopefully get some rest when I get home and maybe have a little Kindy nap. Will see how we go. My back will be very sore by the time I get back, as I need to lift my mum's walker in and out of the car for her doctor's appointment. And it doesn't take much to set it off. It is still sore from a few days ago, so today will be a struggle, but there is no one else in my family that drives. So, it just is what it is, and I will rest up upon my return. Maybe I should take some pain killers before I leave for the appointment, as it might help with the pain.

Hiya @heartathome

Just had work this morning which was ok. Found out I need to work tomorrow too, which wasn't planned. Easter weekend mucks things up. Anyway, will still have a four day weekend, so I ain't complaining too loudly.

What's rocking your world today?

Going ok thanks @MissGremlin

You?

@StuF glad you are doing ok.

Trying to keep pushing through things.

All strength to you @MissGremlin

Thankyou @StuF ❤️

Hey @StuF

The pension is rocking my world today! 😁 I got to pay my bills and buy some yoghurt! I'm happy. I hope tomorrow is okay at work. With Easter coming up I doubt it will be a quiet one, wherever you work. Will you be around over the Easter break or are you going away? 💚

@heartathome

Yoghurt sounds good! (I actually don't like the stuff myself, but you presumably do, so enjoy!)

Not going anywhere for Easter. Do you have plans?

@heartathome @Bunniekins love that you care about the geology

I spent time on Lake Toba in Sumatra when I was 20... a giant caldara... it was the beginning of my journey marvelling at our planet and all of Creation.... when I returned to Australia I studied Earth Science and did geology ar uni... great girrl talk... hugs... ladies... thx

i was really upset when my 2 bunnies got myxomatosis... blamed myself for it... I did not want more animals ar the time... we had a cat, dog, fish, and my sister gave my daughter rabbits... 3 small kids as well... too much.. my neck had been bad for about 55 years then... I guess they were bitten by something
