Niquas Notes

Niquas Notes

I thought I might try some 'journalling' . Just write a little blurb out each day, basically what I'm already doing . . . just giving it a name . . a title, I suppose? But to give it some 'umph' in my head I'm going to try & remember how to start a new thread & call it 'Niquas Notes' 🙂
It's not even 11.30am & I'm having a tomatoe & onion sandwich for lunch 🙂 I think I've been forgetting to 'get around' to a few meals lately. It's pretty good 🙂
I think I need to go into town today & check the post office, I may have a parcel to collect (evil ebay again!). I might get some meat while I'm in there (probably sausages ;)), I don't think I've had a lot of it lately - though I had Tuna in some fried rice the other night 🙂 Pretty sure I've got a couple of DVDs to collect from the library too 😉 {which means waiting until after 2pm at least as they close from 1-2pm for lunch} Today being Wednesday, it's an off-lead walk day, so I'll take the puppies along & drop into the local Forest on the way back home 🙂 I really enjoy that walk myself, it might be one I've done a million times, but that's sort of part of what I think I really enjoy about it?;)? & of the camp trips, beach walks & places that I have been going to for a little while now - the local 'home' forest walk still gives us the most freedom & me the most confidence 🙂
I think I am recovering from the xmas kerfuffle. I've just polished off a banana, which I would normally have at breakfast, so I've just combined morning & midday meals 😉 & I've got a bottle of water with just a touch of Apple Cider vinegar in it :x I actually quiet like the tang & I do beleive my insides appreciate it 🙂 I've been having quite a few nasty waves of nausea washing over me for a while now.
I need to start 'beating myself up a bit' about the housework! I did get some dishes done before I went away, but there's still a mountain of pots and pans there!! & my mountains of dirty washing are growing death defying peaks!!! I did also get 1/2 the yard mowed, but the other half is overgrown & the 1st 1/2 could do with a trim (00)! & the general clutter continues to compact.
I must look online at what the costs of registering my puppies will be in my council, maybe I can do that while I'm in town? If I got the genny going & started tackling the dirty washing, I could mow my little fella's feet inbetween cycles . . . & then we could go to a favourite 'look-out' spot for a walk 😛 . . . that'd be nice 🙂
Well, by the time I get online, it'll be past Potatoe hour. So I'd better stop blurbing & post 😉
Love to all that need or want it, everything positive gratefully accepted 🙂
❤️

Re: Niquas Notes

Nanny hugs to you because I want to Claire @outlander

When it comes to the same ol', same ol', I think I know what the problem is. I'm well overdue for my normal visit to my center - & not only have I realized I don't want to, I think I'm not going to. I think I need to stop chasing my child. I'm trying to get the 'camp bug' back, but it just doesn't seem to be there. I think I need to go somewhere to fill that hole in my routine?

I get these tick bites every year, they're not parallasys ticks, don't know their real name but I've learnt it as 'nymph ticks' - they're so tiny I can't see them, I scratch because it's itchy, I knock their little bodies off & the head burrows in a little & get infected. I then spend the next few months diggin' those dead heads out!!! Aauugghh!!!

I know what hobby I want to take up Claire . . . . camping! And you right, I don't think I'm able to 'get in the right mind frame'. That would be a good focus, a reason to reach for the next ledge . . . at least a good reason to try 🙂

Yes, another fight with Ebay. This will be the last, it's the last item I've purchased through them, when it's done I will close my account permanently. I think Ebay is going to lose a lot of customers because it's lost Paypal, Paypal will still be available until 2023 but it has separted from Ebay. It was Paypal that kept the customers safe . . . Ebay is a rip off!!!

I got a text from my child this morning, apologizing for not phoning as they fell asleep. It's still a positive, they could have just left it & said nothing. The movie was interesting, I tend to go for Sci-Fi. This 1 was about the future, after Human Beings had all but destroyed the World. They had to re-populate using test tube babies & only a handful of genetics/Dna donors. It meant when you fell in love you had to go to a Doctor & be tested to find out if you were related. If you were, whether you were in love or not, you couldn't be with that person. The twist was, this older man who had fallen in love with a much younger lady, ended up being Mother & son. It also had a realistic ending, I like an occasional non-happy ending - the goverment had a method of dealing with these scenarios, a simple neuro-biological adjustment & his memories of her were erased & he was returned to the city (with health air) - she was exhiled to outer-city, where heat & radiation meant only a few years of existance, with memories intact.

Love to you Claire

Re: Niquas Notes

Look at that you've worked it out all on your own @Former-Member sounds like a few 'clicks' have gone off hey. Thats ok that you dont want to and your right you dont have to go chasing people. Im glad you got a text though as i know some communication with your child is still important to you and your a mum you'll love them anyway even through the crap right now.
Camping as a hobby sounds really good and a good reason to try too 🙂

Theres a remedy somewhere ill see if i can find it again. You stick the liquid on the tick and they drag themselves out head and all so you dont have to dig them out. You might be able to tip it over your back standing in the bathtub/shower and then after a few minutes turn the water on and wash them off. And it doenst matter if they arent paralysis tics they can still make you sick ao please take care 💕
That sounds like a cool and unusal movie. Glad you enjoyed it!
Love and hugs 💛💛💛

Re: Niquas Notes

Hello Mazy @Mazarita

Thinking of you & how your huge day went I honestly can't, I really can't even think what it would be like taking public transport across the biggest city . . . any city . . . any public transport!!!!! I hope your Ok I hope it went smooth & without a hic-up {no wrong turns, or trams, or buses, or whatever!} & you got to enjoy your friends screening 🙂

Hope the roller-coaster's having more highs than lows, personally I like the loop-de-loops & the twists & turns. I think that's what we get on it for . . . to feel.

Love to you Mazy, oh & . . . I miss you

Niqua

Re: Niquas Notes

That's absolutely fine Claire When your ready, I'll be ready too 😉

I have sooooo many things I need to do, but I've been soooooo unmotivated!!!! I really need a loving friend to kick my butt!!!! I have no clean cups, no clean underwear & my yard is now beyond me . . . but me is all I've got! I think my underlying thoughts is that the yard is where I need to start . . . it's the block. So please . . . kick hard 😉

Re: Niquas Notes

Yep, yep, yep Claire:) @outlander

I am going to get off the Forum, get some knickers together in a bucket {don't have the 'umph' to fight the genny for the washing machine} with some soap & then jiggle 😉 Sometimes all I need is a kick-start, I can see what needs to be done & I know why it has to be done . . . . because I'm lazy {well I have problems with motivation} & if I don't do it, it just gets harder.

I want you to get a full fix of Greys & then promise to get into that Chemist

Thank-you Claire
