Sleeping too much

Hi @Faith-and-Hope

I should only answer one person at a time - I miss things

Have you had a melanoma? This is not good at all. My dd has/had it- several lesions taken off over time but I haven't heard anything for a long time and I hope she is in remission - she doesn't like talking about it so I wait to hear most of the time

You are right - catching it early is the right thing - and asking your doctor about anything on your skin that looks sus. It only takes them a moment to look - I have had quite a few moles taken off and a couple of them were borderline - better they were gone

Yes - since I have been in this site I have been looking up sub-personalities - academically it is a very interesting subject - but I wonder if anyone is free of a label or three - it seems to me we all have some kind of disorder

Oh why not???? We are all different - it could break down barriers in society if we all have a label - no one is free of being odd - it's all in the way people see life - I think

I hope things improve today

Hi @Former-Member

Definitely a better day in Melbourne - I am planning to wear shorts today and get a bit of tan on my legs - and natural vit d helps

Sorry about S2 hurting his foot - and is it you or S2 who is seeing the orthodontist - how I wish I had seen an orthodontist - it was not on the list when I was young and needed braces - but really crooked teeth didn't bother me much and my teeth are okay now - I asked for minor imperfections and I have them and for the first time in my life I felt confident about smiling - and now I do smile more than I did - for the last few years anyway [partial uppers - works for me]

Hey @Former-Member - I have picked up that your Dad isn't too well - and has to slow down - it's a good thing to know daughter's can have a good effect with this. My Dad was losing his vision but kept driving - my TS was ranting at him to stop driving - but after I told him I had stopped driving because of my spine - I got a phone call - he gave up himself then - he thought it was responsible

The quiet way worked - not ranting but rather leading by example

Whatever will work with your Dad - I wish you the best with it - you know him better than I do - but I hope things will be okay

Good morning All ..... 😊

@Former-Member .... sounds like a plan ❣. You're right .... gotta look after yourself first .... and while your kids are still small. Organising things and them around how you need things to work is a really good idea. You're responsible enough to keep a reign on it, but the occasional "time-out" from other people's expectations is enough to remind you that your life is yours sometimes ❣. We used to pluck the kids out of school a bit early, or return them a tad late to go travelling when they were young, aware that they would learn more on oversea excursions than any classroom would teach them. ... it was wonderful when they had teachers and head masters / mistresses who agreed. Curbed it when they got to the last few High School years tho .... have to keep everything very steady by that stage.

@Decadian .... haven't been troubled by melanoma again, 👍🏻 .... thank God, ☦ ... but there has been a cluster of different cancers and autoimmune stuff going on in my mum's family, so we have to keep a strong eye on it 😔 .... the family has had genetic counselling, and we are not carrying the two main suspect genes 👍🏻 ... but 'learn something new every day' .... we may have our own family gene that is playing up big-time .... What can you do ? Take the necessary precautions, and try to keep yourself fit and healthy, without going to extremes ....

D3 has gotten stuck into producing a very beautiful piece of artwork ❤️ ..... which she fully expects to be failed over .... but here's the good thing .... she doesn't have to pass art to graduate ❣ ... she just has to submit assignments to a reasonable standard ..... She is running way behind with this assignment, but she said the head of art visited the classroom yesterday, and coo-ed over her work ❤️ .... and nobody else's, even though they are all at a much further stage along .... while the art teacher just glared .... I have offered to frame this piece when she has finished it. I think that has provided her enough self-esteem to un-freeze herself and just focus on her love of art to get it done.

2.5 weeks to go .... ❣

well took too many 'detox' aids at once so was bit uncomfortable last nite mostly, and thankyou, I am a good sleep and a good trip to little house away from feeling human haha lol @Former-Member

Hi @Former-Member etc think it went ok, was waiting mostly. Been in worse states of repair, weight was far worse 12mths ago, and BP was crap 6mths ago, but, not too bad, so was stressing a bit.

@TAB .... breathe ..... 💕
