Re: not coping

My night was warmer (got a new blanket) but I also didn't want to get up this morning!

I'm glad you managed a few hours' sleep...I wish it was more. Is it broken sleep, due to pain? @outlander

Re: not coping

A new blanket soundas nice but i dont blame you for not wanting to get up out of bed esp when your warm! @NatureLover

Im a chronic insomniac so having very little sleep is normal for me but right now its a little rougher because of what's happening with my stomach atm

Re: not coping

Oh gosh, a bit rougher than already having insomnia sounds really awful, @outlander 😞

Did I read that you don't have to do any horses today?

Re: not coping

Ah, OK. Am glad to hear it will be a lighter session the day after your procedure. At least, I'm not sure if the water and feed are heavy... 😞

I hope you manage to get a bit more food and drink down today, @outlander .

Re: not coping

no water and feed are easy @NatureLover. there are taps and hoses for water so im mostly just standing there filling them up. feeds arent heavy either so its ok.

even the smell of food atm is making me sick probably because i know what happens when i eat anything. im suppose to be going to a special function which includes dinner but i dont know how im going to go. i dont really want to go there.

Oh gosh, can you get out of it, @outlander ?

I'm glad the water and feed for the horses is light(er) work.
