Re: not coping

Sounds like pure serenity to be in that beautiful space, one with nature @outlander

You have described it and shared it so nicely, its convinced me to stay connected with nature and not fall short on my walks. Thank you.

Will you have some time tomorrow to go for a walk? What do you like to do on your walks?

Re: not coping

I hope to have time @fluffylight but I’m working from home tomorrow so I need to get those tasks done first.

Normally I just put music in through my headphones and then just go walking and notice things around me. Or at least put my worries on hold and just really listen to the music and walk

Re: not coping

I’m really sorry for bailing on you last night @outlander. I do feel bad for it.

I hope you manage to get a walk in today even if it’s a short one.

Thinking of you.

Re: not coping

hey @Captain24 no no thats ok. i ended up going to bed anyway. i forget how much i get drained sometimes when my physical health or mental health decides to have an overly bad day.

i was working from home but because of all the optus outages its made it hard. im just finishing now. only 4 hours today but im ok with that im pretty tired today.

im hoping to go for a walk shortly its nice weather and might do me some good for my mental health today. i only have 2 hours before i have to go get pop so i should make abit of a move i guess i want to go walking!

Re: not coping

Enjoy your walk @outlander. No walking for me, Pix can’t walk anyway but it’s storming and raining. We need so much more rain though.

Re: not coping

thanks @Captain24 we have a storm here now but i got a walk in while the weather was nice at least.
we really need the rain here too

how is Pix going? are you still on holiday?

Re: not coping

We have had 26mls of rain so that is really helpful but we could still do with more. Some is better than none though @outlander

Are you in a bushfire prone area?

I didn’t give Pix any pain relief yesterday so that when I took her to the vet that nothing was masking what is wrong with her. She couldn’t have any pain relief today either as she has to have X-rays tomorrow. So she is in a great deal of pain.

How was your walk? Did it help?

Re: not coping

i am but im also not @Captain24 we have been lucky enough to avoid big fires but we are in a danger zone because of bushland.

aww poor Pix i hope they find whats wrong and how they can help her.

yeah walk was ok. i do enjoy going for walks. im pretty tired now though

Re: not coping

We are pretty prone to them @outlander. We have already had a few pretty bad ones. Hence the need for rain.

Im hoping Pix isn’t as bad as the vet thinks. But she usually pretty on the money.

If you are tired are you able to go to bed early or is that too hard with pop?
