Those mosquito lights work really well @Decadian .... don't know how cheaply you can find then in a hardware store or large department store ..... but the mozzies prefer them to anything .,... mabe you can get a small one to turn on just outside your bedroom door ?

You can join our Toxic Sister Club @TAB

Actually there is no official club but there are enough of us who know what it's like

No - you can't please them - whatever you do you play into there dark games - it's painful - with all the anger and scorn - trying to please them brings derision -

And I believe it is not us - we just happen to be in the way

Thinking of you -

Hi @Faith-and-Hope

I am hoping to get up to Bunnings in the morning so I could pick one up then - regardless - I could use one or two outside

Maybe I can find a mosquito

Very delicate for such a pesky little pest

Re: Sleeping too much

There's nothing like a good 9ld fashioned mosquito net @Decadion. They work well. I still use one up north! 😃🎶

Re: Sleeping too much

@Kurra - I livein Melbourne - I have seen mosquito nets on TV but know of no one in Melbourne having one - of course - just in case there is someone - it still doesn't solve my main mozzie problem an that's walking around outside in the evenings

It's a good idea though - I hope to get up to Bunnings tomorrow - I need to get a gift voucher for my SonILs birthday - which was yesterday - ah - yesterday was a strange day and I forgot - I was very cold yesterday

The weather is improving - I think I would enjoy a walk tomorrow - that's a good walk but I can always get a taxi back

So I will look at those lights tomorrow - I think there are lights that are solar powered

@Appleblossom, think you were meant to havw time with your son, but hopefully you'll be able fit a little more of your own needs there somewhere lol. No, wonder if our kids will ever realise how much we give up for them. Don't think so somehow lol. Glad you're in the habit of water. Good luck at Psych tomorrow (I get times mixed up a lot too), they'll understand hopefully that you've been going through a rough patch. We gotcha back, stay strong 🙂

Hey @Former-Member, how's the mindfulness going? Do you feel your thinking clear up since off Benz? I regret that I was on them the last 2yrs of my girls life. Its harder without these things but well worth it in so many other ways. Hang in there.

I Had a big day today - 40min dr to town, fasting for bloods, phlebotomist missed 1st time (of cause), Gynae apt took 2hrs & have to go back next month (nothing major). The hospital were selling lovely bunches of Sweet Peas which I bought for my friend 'R' (who I baby sat for Wed when she had urgent pain management admission), actually found the perfect little vase for the flowers at an op shop & left them by her door (not home). Couldn't drive past the op shop (oh dear, should i confess what else i found? hmm). Wanted to do a couple other things but the back - ouch, had to come home & rest. Then my VC visited (yes, she did text first) and didn't stay long as i asked, no problems, phew.

Just rang mum, she was upset cause dad fell today (not hurt just couldn't get up), and she couldn't help him & didn't know what to do (3sons not answering phones), so she called police & somehow got two of them to come give a lift. Its sad. Probably have to go to care eventually. Love the BFGW2 where the family, all living near, rushed over to help. Its awful feeling powerless, mar has always called the shots but feeling it now things are slowly slipping out of her grasp.

Watching a Denzel Washington movie 'man on fire' - violent but a good hero storyline.

Sorry I've got behind with everyone's news. Does overwhelm me at times but think I'm slowly getting better at it. 🙂

Re: Sleeping too much

Anxiety is high for some reason, I'd have Benz if I hadn't learned what they take from tomorrow. Going numb.
There's a storm in the distance, coming closer, grumbling thunder.
What's the weather like for everyone e else tonight?
