Re: Sleeping too much
Its just gone midnight, Just rang hospital to see how mum was so I can sleep better, only to find out she discharged herself at 7pm. Hmm! Guess she's feeling better. Just wanted to tell someone.

Re: Sleeping too much
Went to lunch with friend, made it & all went well.
Not too many triggers today. Back packed in though, a rest laying flat helps a lot. Having a dysfunctional family free day all day today.
Hope ya all doing ok.

Hi @Former-Member, Glad today was ok but sorry about your back. Backs cause us so much strife when they pack it in. Do you have plans for tomorrow?

Re: Sleeping too much
@Former-Member, hi, are you ok?
I was reading you on another thread & so relate your going days without a shower. And making a spa space for visitors.
I've started packing boxes if things I don't use. This is tricking the brain to try sort stuff cause these are the boxes I'll get rid of. Thats the plan anyway.

Re: Sleeping too much
Yes I think that sounds like a good idea @Former-Member. I should try that now too. I'm still unpacking boxes but maybe I should put some stuff back in them. My next goal is to sort out my bedroom. It's chaos as I haven't got anything sorted since I moved. 😊💜

Hi @Former-Member
That's a really good idea ...
I usually try to put things into give-away bags, but there is something a bit more "packing to move" about boxes .... and when you pack it's usually the stuff you use least that is packed first .... cos everything else is still in use right up till the last minute.

HELLO! WHAT'S EVERYONE 'DOING' WITH THEIR MORNING?
@Faith-and-Hope, hows ya dad? When's he expected home? Are you expecting he'll be a good house guest? Extra work for you I guess. And no more hospital breaks. Love hearing what you are up to & how you cope. Keep shining 🌞
Things here are quiet, as usual (probably have anxiety episodes if someone came anyway), nope, just me & the dogs, & memories. And of cause Jesus (my best friend), the wild birds i feed & the garden.
Haven't had my morning cuppa yet. [its a worry I've lost interest in that. Really cold this morning, -2°C so rather than shiver in front of my expensive bar heater, Just stay under the covers reading & talking with you guys.
Hope its ok to just randomly post like this. I find it so hard to pick up on other threads & catch up where everyone's at, wade through it all. Need tp take notes or something. Its not that I'm not interested at all but i do struggle with this mode communication being 'real' or something. Wouldn't take much for you all to just disappear in the same moment. But for now i do appreciate you.
Today i need to vote of cause. Takes a lot out of me, the crowds, social anxiety & all, so i go late when the crowd dies down. Its a trigger too being at the school - so many memories. Until then i'll try tidy up a while (if my back holds out after yesterday), I'll feed the birds, doggy & myself. Crochet when i sit etc.
Saturday i try to make my cleansing day, or 'Personal Hygiene Day' day i guess, where i tend to the body - wash the hair, shave the legs, pluck eyebrows, cut nails & scrub & moisturize the skin etc.etc. Basic Self care. Probably sounds mundane to high functioning people but with limitations & so much internal distractions, if i don't pick a day for these things they sadly get forgotten. Routine is good. Discipline guess.
Well,, best shake a leg and get started. Check in shortly over a cuppa 🌿🌷💕

Re: Sleeping too much
Hi @Former-Member
I have been out to vote - there was a major queue - someone came along looking for absentee votes - then next time I told her I had a bad spine and I got taken in and could vote quickly
The Senate - Heaven help me - the paper is 50 miles long - and we have to vote in 6 boxes - and I could hardly believe I was voting for the Australian Sex Party - I didn't know there was one - I wonder if they will invite me - ah sigh - I was in my element telling jokes up there
But I am glad I went - I am sure we are in for rain
Your Saturday Cleansing Routine doesn't sound mundane to me @Former-Member - I shower just about everyday and cut my nails when they start to click on my computer or piano keyboards - I used to wear a lot of eye shadow - I used to have a lot of colours and colour code everything - I wear glasses - I couldn't see what I was doing - but then - no one else could really see what I had done
I resigned from that website - no one has noticed but I have told a few people are they are sending me mail - oh boy - I have a support site just for me - I will not return to that website - I don't want to be associated with it - and people are concerned
I did not expect this and it is using my time - and although it's sad it is really something to have people sending me messages privately
Decadian
Ah - no - someone is sharing their music - I will have to turn on the TV and listen - maybe I need a break anyway
