My special place

@Eve7

All of that sounds yummy hon.

I normally cook things like cookies and banana bread. I also have made dumplings today so will cook them up for tea.

I try and make extra of things so I can have them frozen in the freezer. That way when I don't feel like cooking there are meals there for the kids to reheat.

Tonight is not going great. I have lots of thoughts in my head that I am trying to control, without much success. Sometimes things just bottle up and get too hard. They asked me at ECT this morning if I had any thoughts and I just told them no. They asked me in front of other patients and I didn't want to admit it. They probably wouldn't have let me go if I was honest with them or would have said something to H.

Sorry I am just rambling now. H has gone out for awhile with a mate so it is only me and the kids home. I didn't want him to not go out if I told him of my thoughts.

I'll sit with you this evening @Snowie I'm sorry you were asked that in front of other patients. It's a shame you couldn't have had a chat with someone this morning.

Dumplings sound good to me. I like making lots of different soups too. Cooking is a bit of a release for me but I'm not always safe doing it.

I'm hoping we get a medal or two tonight at the athletics..fingers crossed.

Thanks @Eve7

They always ask me if I have any SH or SI thoughts before I leave and it is like they just want me to say no to all the questions and ust get them over and done with. The nurses always ask with others around.

I did end up emailing my psych but she hasn't gotten back to me, not that I expect that she would check her emails at this time of night.

I am watching the Olmypics too, well I have it on in the background.

I'm glad cooking is a bit of a release for you. It does help me at times too but I don't think my mind would let me cook tonight. Luckily the kids are old enough to get their own dinner.

I usually get asked too @Snowie but not in front of others. I just smile at them and say "ask no questions, you'll be told no lies".

Hello @Eve7 @Snowie hugs and love to both of you 🤗🤗💛💚🌻🌹

HUgs to you too @Anastasia hope you are having a good night 💕

I don't know why they ask @Eve7 It's not like they can admit me to there if I tell them my thoughts.

They are just out of control tonight, even prn are not helping.

What does PRN really mean. Please ..? Like does it mean prescription etc @Snowie

@Clawde prn means medication when necessary (as needed). It is medication I don't take every day but just when I need something extra, like tonight.

Oh hun @Snowie I'm sorry. I'm watching the women's racewalk and the girl from Melbourne is not far off the lead. I hope she can finish top 8 just like the guy from Melbourne did this morning in the walk.

We have 3 women in the javelin final and 2 in the 1500 so surely someone will get a medal tonight. I love the OG!

Do you want a cuppa?
