There are days I feel like this .... cats sure get away with a bit .... I love how they are true to their feelings .... we probably need a human version of a scratching post somewhere .....

Re: Sleeping too much

Oh my goodness, 29 new posts - plz give me the morning to catch up guyz.

I was just gonna post about my goals today, I think it was @Former-Member, @oceangirl, and @Former-Member's ideas, or a mix there...

Its cooler today (PTL) and I've been laying around for days, but gonna try push through the aches and pains and
make a list (accountability) here goes:
- dishes (lots of 'em 😞 days catch up).
- sweep floor (pick up, grr)
- unpack car from trip & put away
That would be extra good if I could just do those things, or some of.. Might start with self care though...
- shower (also well overdue)
Check in later

Haha, very funny @Faith-and-Hope, hmm, a 'scratching' (venting) thread sounds good, well, could be dangerous lol xox

Re: Sleeping too much

Hi @Former-Member, yes, thats a 'nice' way to put it my "your family has so much stuff going on" And anger... it sure can be destructive - so i fatigue out freezing it. dissipate would be better. Finally learning that Lots of 'self care' is the key.
Oh yes, tinned peaches in mango juice & and cream. Haven't had fresh cream here but polished off a big tin of peaches - very yum self care exercise (thanks for remembering - wow).

Thanks for sharing with me how badly you took our heatwave, oractically not moving for three days, fell into a hole, lied there, under the fan, like a beached whale. Gosh, sounds like my last 3days. It feels cooler here today so hope I bounce back like you. Even my 15yo dog is struggling, and today he has a nasty cough.

Glad to hear youre somehow coping better with the "same crap" youre trying to deal with.

Thanks for saying "None of it is your fault" "It will get better again" Need these reminders.

And sorry youve been swallowed up lately by black dog yourself (back to puppy training school he goes, mine too), it happens, but so what! - we pick ourselves up eventually. But yep, we need to fight it off more, make changes.

A 'daily check in list' with each other, for daily goals, for accountability - this is a really good idea (especially for us paralysed depressives lol), . Maybe a new thread or just tag eachother?

Re: Sleeping too much

Pleased to say I picked up by the afternoon when the cool change cane through, that heat - shocking! The fainting has eased off (accept after eating) , and the backpain dissipated to bearable by mid afternoon. Think laying around so much days with that heat stffens everything. Dec understands. So, for the first time in days I got a couple things done, thanks too to Teej's new 'Daily Goals' thread.

But worried about my pooch though, he has this intermittant gagging cough, made worse with exercise. I fear it might be heart as the heat really got to him too. Any vets out there?

Well, gonna call it a day. Nice seeing everyone tonight, especially on 'Topic Tuesday'

Night xox

Re: Sleeping too much

Kind of on the improve late today thanks @Faith-and-Hope, The presyncopy was the worst I recall. Putting it down to 72hrs of unrelenting heatwave (no aircon here). Knocked me around, and dog too (who's developed a cough). I was gonna go to dr tomorrow but the 'faints' are almost gone so no point. Have my routine Mammogram tomorrow grr, that will be enough - 1.5hrs travel, 2hrs waiting around grr. Gosh, I'm still growling lol. Glad you're a bit better. Safe travels to you xox

Re: Sleeping too much

Getting pretty tired now, since you prompted me to look at the time. Not sure what I've been doing. Maybe 'Topic Tuesday' switched the mind into overdrive. Have you read it yet? With my bad experiences - two bros on CTOs it interests me. Gosh I was pressed how switched on Zoe7 - Kurra really are on the whole matter. Wish my brain was that sharp.
I have a couple of noisy possums that have been all over my roof most the night, playing games or something. No stoppening them in the country. xox
