Living with Ourselves

Wow @Sophia1 That looks very lavish & impressive.

Even I wouldn't mind a little splash in that pool...

The 2nd one is impressive too.

I think I'll go for the first pool @Sophia1

I took a client in wheelchair into pool for 1 hour yesterday.

He can stand & walk well, to get out of chair, & down the steps.

hugs @Sophia1

Love the swimming pool xoxo

I have to agree....the first one is my favourite also....although either would be wonderful...

That would be such a momentous feeling for anyone confined to a wheelchair....to suddenly have the experience of buoyancy in the water....escape from the refinement for an hour....

I know that you have had some dreadful experiences with your job....I am sure that there are some memorable..rewarding ones as well...

I am off to watch a comedy for some distraction ....

take care

welcome to join us @Shaz51

everyone has their own exercises and own pace....

I checked my drafts again for that response that I had written to you and definitely not there...

I seriously do not know what I do when I lose things on the computer....no matter...

I shall get around to replying when in a better frame of mind...

hope that you and Mr Shaz have a restful weekend...some smiling moments thrown in....xxx

which comedy my friend @Sophia1 xxxxx

oops @Adge

previous message meant to read confinement not refinement...although some might be happy to have both

Hello Mrs Shaz

@Shaz51

It is an english comedy called "Getting On"....The english comedienne Jo Brand....often on the quiz show QI...plays a nurse at a hospital....hilarious...

@Sophia1

I suppose it's not just about living with ourselves. It's also about living with others. Would you agree? I say this... Because, I figure there's only so long we can be on our own... Before we have to face other people...

I love the pool @Sophia1 - looks so quiet and inviting - I don't think I would ever get out of that one if it was in my backyard!

I have been looking at pools closer to my house today - most are too busy or too expensive - I have to weigh up the costs of travel as well as the membership fees for a couple that are a little further out but seem a lot quieter. I do like the pool that I am going to for hydrotherapy but there is someone there that runs the learn to swim program that is a problem for me - I did not expect this person to be there - definitely was a shock and the times I will be able to go are during the day are when they will be there so the search may have to continue a bit more.

Glad to hear you have done a little drawing - I would love to see what you have produced but I understand if you don't feel like you can share the caricatures here

Over thinking is something I do a lot too and it usually is never as bad as I think something will be but that doesn't stop my mind racing ahead at the worst possible scenario - I suppose this is learnt behaviour from so many things that have happened over my life time that I had no control over - part of MI also!

I gave Toby a good talking to after he ran off - grabbed him and wouldn't put him down actually - was more worried about a car coming around the corner and hitting him more than myself - you could say I was protecting my little buddy rather than the other way around in this instance. I couldn't imagine anything happening to him - that would totally destroy me. But he is okay and it just means a setback for my back to heal a little and become stronger - and I am back on pain meds to get through the day and not just the night - that is not something I wanted to do as I don't want to get more reliant on them but I need to in the short term to help me get through the day. Hopefully tomorrow it has settled a little more and I won't need them again - have to wait and see.

I hope you are taking care of yourself and not being so hard on yourself - I know that is not always easy to do but that is my wish for you.
