rough time

Your day yesterday sounded ok and productive

And so was today. I've cranked up the packing a bit as I'm scared I won't get it done in time. And I also had a 2hour volunteer group this afternoon plus my support worker as well. I've just had dinner and going to sort out the back room a little as some stuff needs tossing. My phone is on charge in the bedroom as it's quite low. So I'll come back in about an hour and chat some more.

I hope your day has been OK as it can be. Big squishy hugs for my Lil Sis @outlander 💜 💜 💜

Sounds like another good and productive day @Sans911 your doing a great job with packing and getting things ready in time. Do you still have alot of items that need to be sold/given away as well or is that stuff sorted now?

Squishy hugs back 💗💗

Its lovley listening to the rain here. Will chat later

@Former-Member 💛

Hi again my angel @outlander.

I've done enough now; worn myself out. I still have lots to sell, but getting through bit by bit. I want the furniture to go definitely, but I have shoes, bags, clothing, and some electricals I want gone as well. If I have to take that to the new unit I can put it in the store room.

There's other things I'm going to just give away, and have done a bit of that as well.

I'm trying to finish the lounge room & back room by this weekend, then the kitchen & bathroom will be next, and my bedroom the last week.

My foster sister is coming next week to help with the grandchildren, and her husband is coming too. He's going to help install the curtains in the new unit which will be a big task taken off me, and I will be comfortable with increased privacy prior to moving in.

How's your day been? I think Jasper & I will come join you as we like the sound of rain. He's in the mood for cuddles too

I would love some of my sis's company and Jasper cuddles and Mr A can come too. It is still raining here which im not complaining over since its been so hot and more heat expected by the end of the weekend so the few cool days we are all lapping up.

Your so busy! But a good sort of busy. Im glad youll be having some help and the added privacy would make me feel alot more comfortable too.
Hopefully more of your things will start to be taken quickly so you dont have to take it with you. The larger furniture pieces are usually the hardest to take to new houses.

My days been average just the normal stuff but has been one of those ouch days where everything wants to hurt physically. Between my foot my hand and my teeth causing earaches and headaches and those things its been abit harder to manage. Feeling a little lethargic which im sure goes in hand with this stuff.

@Sans911

I wouldn't feel surprised if you felt a bit blah with everything happening to you. Your poor body is copping a beating. Maybe everything will be sorted in a matter of weeks of each other and gradually everything will start to heal. Next time ask your Mum's bf to help with the washing machine(if he's around). But you're probably like me. If there's something to be done you just do it. People have asked me how do I go when I buy furniture (second hand) and get it home. I manage because I have no other choice. It's probably why I have tears in my shoulders and why they still hurt from time to time.

Jasper has just gone over to Mr A and laid next to him. They haven't done this since Jasper was a kitten. And it lasted as long as me typing this paragraph. Jasper just got up.

I don't have anything on tommorow except packing & emails. What about you @outlander?

Yep well im like you. I just do it @Sans911 it was abit of a spur of the moment thing and no one was around to help. Nothing unusual there. Its done now at least and ita another part of the house finally fixed up properly.

How come the boys arent as close bow? Or is that just a thing with cats, i know they like their own space.

So far i dont have alot on except doing the horses but its suppose to be raining as well. I have to go to the shops at some point but that can wait till the arvo. Other than that might try and get some of the back verandah cleaned up depending on how heavy the rain is or at least general tidy up inside as ive been abit slack on it.

I don't know why my two cats aren't close any more @outlander. It's maybe because Jasper isn't really a kitten any more, and as soon as one starts licking the other, it turns into a rough and tumble playfight. Boys- that's what it is! I'd like it to be like that again; perhaps when they're older. I certainly have two quirky cats.

I wouldn't exactly call you slack lil Sis. Give yourself a break hun. You're sick, and injured. You're allowed to rest and recover, you know.

Yesterday, I went to my new place and swept out a huge pile of leaves in not only my carport but the next door neighbour's as well(it's an open twin carport). By the looks of it, it was never going to be done. Then I did my front entrance and raked my front garden. Last week I pulled out weeds while I waited for the locksmith to fix the sliding door. I just get things done because they have to be. And it looks so much better. I'm sure it will need to be done again. And it will always be me- sigh!

My support worker said I looked and sounded really good today. We've gotten quite close, but her services will cease in about another 3 months. I could probably do without her now, but it's good to have someone to talk things over each week; it's a different kind of talk from the psychologist. I will miss her when she goes.

Yes boys! @Sans911 says quite abit initself doesnt it! The fit right in wirh their quirky mum too- not in a bad way either!

I always feel like im sick or injured 😔 but hopefully thatll start to change soon as things heal up again.

Wow that was a really big day but so much was done and im sure you feel better for it too. Sometimes-not 100% sure but with some govt. housing you can get garden maintenance as well.

Your support worker sounds like a really good match for you. Im sorry her services will end in 3 months time but i can see improvements in you even in your bad days which is a huge credit to you. Keep moving forward as you are 😘💕😇

Thanks lil Sis. That's a nice post.

Unfortunately my meds are kicking in, so time for me to get out of here. I always enjoy these general chats as much as supportng you. The great thing about supporting you is your willingness to try other suggestions or new things. You're going to get through this @outlander. I know it.

Big squishy goodnight hugs my lovely.
