Re: rough time

Re: rough time

Morning @CheerBear
Im not going so great today

In response to: Re: rough time

Re: rough time

Sorry to hear @outlander. Anything in particular going on this morning?

In response to: Re: rough time

Re: rough time

March in general is a little tougher cause 2 trauma type stuff happened during this month but im just feeling really irritated over anything and everything but I don't really know why. @CheerBear
im bored out of my mind but I could be studying or I really should be finishing off a project that was requested and will be paid for by a customer. every time I start though I just feel like chucking it away and not dealing with it but I really need to finish it, its just taking forever!

its probably abit mixed in with being tired, constantly in pain , nightmares etc again, just sick of everything...

Re: rough time

Anniversary times are often tricky for me too @outlander and I can feel quite agitated and wobbly in the lead up. Hugs for that. I remember this being a hard time of the year for you.

I didn't realise you were studying again. What are you doing this time? Bored but having 'should' things lingering around is annoying :face_with_rolling_eyes:

Hugs for it all outlander. That's a lot to deal with 🙁❤

Re: rough time

yeah at the end of this month the dog anniversary comes up but also easter is a trigger because originally that was the date it landed on (on the yr it actually happened) plus I still had some of the SA stuff happening previously in march which included a pregnancy scare as well-thank god it was nothing!

Yeah im studying dementia but I honestly just don't want to do that either. its free and more self paced over 7 weeks so don't see the point in deferring. its the first course surprisingly that I really don't care if I pass or not though which is quite out of nature for me.

the customer wants 2 handtowels (fully crocheted), makeup remover wipes plus 2 bath floor mats fully crocheted but its in the ripple stitch and its taking sooooo long. I was waiting on the yarn to come back in stock but ive had it a few days and barely started the second lot. its really dragging out and I keep telling myself the faster and more I do the quicker it gets done. has my brain listened yet though-nooo 😐😐 @CheerBear

I need to see the dr tomorrow about some ultrasound results cause I think the implant has either moved or its just not going to well even after almost 5 months now. its my only option so I was hoping I wouldn't be getting all the side effects that I have been.

wobbly, scattered and agitated times really suck don't they CB 😞

edit- sorry i mentioned a form of contraceptive but i dont think its allowed... its not the name just the form of it but edited just in case 😬

In response to: Re: rough time

Re: rough time

I have pondered whether it's allowed also @outlander and my interpretation of the guidelines and some discussion about that specific guideline has me thinking it's OK to mention. It's like saying "the pill" I think as there are a couple of versions of them and you're not mentioning which one. But your call (and I'm thinking I/we will get told if it gets seen and is an issue).

Sorry you're having those side effects though. Glad you had an u/s and will get the results done. My understanding (I've had a fair few goes at this one) is that it's rare for it to move but it's worth checking and confirming. It's a pain going through all this stuff 🙁

You went through lots and still go through lots. Have you got any get through it kind of plans or ideas for the time of the year we're heading in to?

Study and doing your crochet on top of it all sounds like it could be big and overwhelming at times. Easier said than done but try and go gently. Wobbly scattered and agitated times definitely suck

Re: rough time

yeah I think so too @CheerBear im not mentioning the specific name just the category...
Ive had an u/s about 2 months ago for something similar but it was still in place, its making certain times a heck of a lot more painful and a few other side effects so I thought id at least get her to check. my gp hasn't got an idea with it so its hopeless talking to her any further past yep its in place or nope its something more serious. abit of a pain really but I guess its the way it is..

im trying to get my business up and running so im hoping it will turn out as a positive. ive got the crochet stuff but im also incorporating more into it and making like gift hampers with other stuff (both with my crochet items and also other stuff too) I was hoping I could have a few ready before easter but the company who I ordered a few things through are having some technical issues with their printing materials so its been delayed a little but im aiming to have them released by mid april to advertise for mothers day stuff. The place where I also volunteer at are also having a huge event at the end of the year and I spoke with some of them there and have agreed to donate some of the hampers as raffle prizes and will do a promotion on my webpage like 'buy one and all profits go to _____)

im trying to focus a little on my health and getting the iud stuff sorted out plus my headaches, spine and my newly found allergy which is actually very rare but its getting abit overwhelming with all the appts again.
Im suppose to be going away in mid april during the school holidays for 3 days but I don't want to go on that either, I know if I don't itll probably just cause a big argument though

Re: rough time

It's so annoying to have to deal with it all and to not know what's causing what if anything @outlander. I'm 50/50 with mine and not likely to be able to tolerate it all for long but we'll see. Some things make it worth it for me to have tried again, but its still really sucky :face_with_rolling_eyes:

I'm so impressed you've made it to selling stage and have a business going. That's awesome 🎉 One of those times I wish the anonymity part of the forum didn't exist as I'd love to see more!

Hugs for the health things. It's a lot.

In response to: Re: rough time

Re: rough time

yeah it really is @CheerBear and with this one being the only option for any contraceptives its probably feeling the pressure lol. its helped in a small way but atm theres a lot of worse side effects. they said it can take up to 6 months for things to really kick in though so if it hasn't improved by the time I see the gynae which will make it just over 6 months ill talk to him about having it removed or if theres another brand I can try of the same thing. ive heard some good things about other type but in same category. we will see! we can be on the 'is it worth it' waiting game together lol.

I wish I could share it more here too, I could probably share some of the crochet stuff cause theres a few people who make them and literally doing a search on fb would bring up quite a few so it wouldn't be to obvious if I shared some of those things. the other items though unfortunately are a little more personalised (some of them are actually created from my own artworks).
im hoping itll be quite popular. ive been abit smarter and going to get a few of each designs ready first before I advertise them cause I done that with the crochet and got an influx of like 6 orders when I first advertised that. wasn't prepared at all for that 😂 the only thing I struggle with a little is working out the prices of things. I don't like to sell things that seemed overpriced but I also need to cover the costs of production and a few $ profit otherwise it isn't worth it. I think ive worked out fair prices so ill see how they go..


How are you going? it feels like ages since weve chatted 🌈🦄
