Re: How's the weather today?
Mum had a hip replacement last week @Former-Member The first day afterwards she was okay then the nausea started - they think it was from the meds. She then fell and hurt her leg so she has not able to be mobile and the nausea has continued all week. They ran tests today and there is no knee damage - and they have given her anti-nausea meds to help with that. She is very weak though so it is going to take time for her to be able to move - which of course is not good for healing. My sisiter has been helping with everything as she lives close. I am only half an hour away so whilst not super close it is not too far. I will likely go to see her tomorrow and help where I can - she loves her garden but it is in a mess at the moment because she has not been able to do anything - so that is where I will start.
Take care with that suture site Hon - it is at an awkward height and easily knocked ![]()
Wow 30 degrees inside is very uncomfortable - I hope the air con helps to lower that for you - it is hard to function in heat ![]()

Re: How's the weather today?
@Emelia8 did you survive the big storm this arvo?
@Zoe7 oh dear, your poor mum, hope she turns a corner soon. Gonna need support at home for a while. Maybe some mobility aids too. Pitty she had the fall, by she's in the best place for care.
I just found my desk top computer, which is great 'cause I need some photos of dad. Trying to do a slideshow reflection of his life, and best photos are in this hard drive. I get tired so rad after rumaging in box city and shocking back pain the next day, so having to do things in spits & spurts. Furbaby loves being my shadow outside, it's nice. I've booked her in for full clip Wednesday, that will help with the heat poor dear.
Have a good night guys 🙏

Re: How's the weather today?
Yes I did @Former-Member 😄☔⛅
Lots of thunder and lightening.
And the bonus of about half an inch of rain. Much needed too.
Meant to be hot here tomorrow, about 35C. 😰 Yuk. 😕
How are you going EOR?

Re: How's the weather today?
Mum is home now @Former-Member and she has some mobility aids. She has been too unwell to use them though - pretty much been in bed since she got home Tuesday. The anti-nausea tabs were helping a little this afternoon so I hope they continue to make her feel a little better ...then she can get up and begin walking again. She has a lot of pain from her fall but she also needs to begin moving so it is difficult for her.Structurally everything is okay and they think it is referred sciatica pain. I know that pain and it is excruciating so I am very much feeling for her ![]()
You would get that pain too with your back pain after rumaging around in box city. Look after yourself Hon - doing bits and spurts is a good idea to not get too tired or too much pain. Super glad Georgia is by your side though ...do you occasionally fall over her like I do with Toby being so close all the time? (LOL)
I am also super glad you found your computer and can get those photos of your Dad off it. No doubt that will be hard for you too EOR but hold onto the good memories ![]()

Hello @Former-Member How are you?
I hope your sutures are healing up well (try not to bump them).
Feeling Hot Hot Hot....
By Monday or Tuesday it will Rocket up to 38C then 40C, for the rest of the week (here).
The Rock Group Kiss has a song "Hotter than Hell" - They must have visited Perth (WA) sometime.

Re: How's the weather today?
I just had a spontaneous Invite (Catchup) with my neighbour/ friend @Former-Member
She invited me over for her Yummy Homemade Soup (& Whisky).
We sat & chatted for 3 hours (3-6pm), that's a long one.

Re: How's the weather today?
Tawney's magic soup graciously accepted @Former-Member 😁👍
That pain affects everything we can do. I often lay on the ground and cannot get back up so I do know how hard it is to even get out of bed the next day
...and most days pain killers do not help much so have many tears trying to deal with the pain - super sucks hey.
My fur baby is spread out next to me with his little legs resting on top of me - they get into some strange positions but he is sound asleep so must be comfortable. Is Georgia with you?
