Re: rough time
At the moment idont have to many plans. I need to go to the chemist for pop and he has an optometrist appt this morning but i have a house inspection on monday so i think ill just be cleaning up but theres not alot to do in that regard.
Other than that not alot. Im hoping to hear back from the dental team today but im not holding my breath on that.
What about you @Former-Member

Re: rough time
Oh yes, I do hope you hear something soon from the dental team. And fingers crossed when you do hear from them, that the appointment is much sooner than later too. @outlander
So just a fairly standard carers day by the sounds of it. There is always something isnt there? I took my hubby to see his eye specialist last week actually. Amongst everything else, he has a number of problems with his eyes.
Mondays appointment with your Pops GP will be an important one for you I think. Do you have a list of questions that you want answered? If not, then I would urge you to do so over the weekend. If you're like me, I always come away wishing I'd asked a few more things which I forgot to ask at the time.
Today is just a typical day for me as well. Dragged hubby out of bed at 8.30am for a light breakfast and his morning meds. He was back in bed by 9am and is still sleeping now. I will wake him up again a little later. He sleeps a lot, probably due to a number of his assorted medications. And yet, he still complains that he doesnt sleep at night. Though, whenever I check on him overnight, he always seems to be asleep.
Right now, I am just having some quiet time on the couch. I have my little dog Holly by my side. I usually avoid talking about Holly with you because I know dogs are a big problem for you. Can I ask ... is it triggering for you to talk about dogs in general? If so, then I wont mention her again. But truly she is such a huge part of my life, its hard not to make mention of her. And she is just the most gentle, quiet, loving little dog you could ever imagine. I know you are an animal lover, so it must be so hard having traumatic memories around a dog.
Its quite warm again here today. And I can hear cicada's singing. A sound so strongly synonymous with summer. It dredges up happy memories from my childhood. I hope your day finds a way of bringing some joy to you throughout your day.

Re: rough time
Yes that would be nice @Former-Member
Im finding its already going to make life quite disruptive for not only me but for everyone else which is making me feel quite bad ( along with nervous etc) but i cant do to much about it either.
Yes there always seems to be something. This ones just a regular checkup i think or thats what ive booked in but who knows! My pops got glaucoma and some other thing but i cant remember so he needs the yrly check ups or however often they say.
Yep im like you then. I tend to have mental blanks! I havent got to many questions really but i know the 2 things that iwant to address so it gives me a baseline but im sure there will be many questions that pop up during that time.
Sounds like a regular carers sort of day for you too but a little more resting which is nice. Where you are sounds lovley. Cicadas are nice but sometimes they are way to loud for my liking.
No! Dont stop meantioning little Holly. While sometimes its triggerring im usually quite good with the dogs on here so its not a problem at all besides is actually good exposure to hear of the good dogs too and i wouldnt want anyone to not meantion their pets but thank you for asking 💕 i am still weary of dogs on here or the threads based on those like dogs rock but in general im alright. It really is hard because yes i am an animal lover.

Re: rough time
Hi @outlander ☕️ Thanks for thinking of me. And @Former-Member ☕️
Ive been quiet. It’s been a really hard week. Have to wean off prn. They’re not helping me. Just draining me and causing me to be cranky.
Didnt want to come on here whinging.
Stuff happening here and I’m not going well at all.
I know you know what I mean. You’re both going through alot yourselves.
Things irl really triggering.
My nerves feel shattered. Such a bummer I can’t take anything to help.
Hoping your day goes reasonably ok.
💜💖🌺🌸
Thanks for thinking of me re other thread @Shaz51 Beautiful pics. Thanks. 💜🌷

Hi @Former-Member
Sorry things are tough at the moment.
Hugz.
@outlander Missed you last night and this morning. It is really good that you are able to separate out the trauma incident with the dog from those who are no threat.
@Former-Member Your Holly has become one of the "other people's dogs" I am fond of. I cant really have a dog so its nice.
@MDT Hey!
