yes, almost over @Bow Will be happy too.

Here if you need to sit/chat

@AuntGlow Been doing some painting. Think I overdid it today though, I’ve got a bad shoulder and it’s rather sore tonight. I’m doing a cupboard which is frustrating me a lot

no never did hear back from her. Probably hear from her tomorrow though if she is in.

Today I did painting. And lots of sitting

You get up to much today @Snowie ?

Not much today @Bow

Couldn't be bothered really doing anything. At least I got the washing and ironing done.

Will have to take mum down the street tomorrow morning.

I saw that you did some painting today.

I was gonna have a nothing day today @Snowie just blah on the couch, but I’m finding it incredibly difficult to just sit and do nothing. So washing and ironing done is good!

will your trip up down be brief?

yeah, done some painting. I’ve had an old vintage I guess it would have probably been a kids wardrobe. With lock and key. So I did another coat of paint on that.

I then put wallpaper on the outside of this cupboard and then painted the rattan front. I ran out of wallpaper though, which is annoying cause I bought a second roll to do this project, so gonna have to buy another one. The first roll must of been a longer one.

that means another temu order 😂 wish I could add to my current order which is sitting waiting for a pre-order item.

It can be hard to just sit at times @Bow

I'm hoping tomorrows outing won't be too long. She does like to look at everything and touch everything. I'm more of a 'get in, get out' quickly type of person!

Well done for getting some work done hon. Can be really hard to motivate ourselves at times.

You will have to show us your work when it's finished.

Ohh I do love a temu order! Waiting on one myself.

@Snowie How do you deal with the questions from nurses about SH when you have ECT? I guess especially those fresh ones? I just went into a bit of a panic cause they will see it all on Wednesday

When I have ECT and they ask me those questions I think I just shut down @Bow Most of the time my head screams yes, but I just say No.

Also, I think it is the way they normally ask too. Instead of saying "have you got any SH/SI thoughts", they ask "you have no SH/SI thoughts do you"

It is only a subtle difference, yet it can feel huge.

Do you mean that your CM/SW will see it all on Wednesday?

No I have surgery on Wednesday @Snowie and dr and nurses are going to see scars and fresh stuff. I didn’t even think about it until a little while ago. There will be no hiding it.

Temu is a trap @Bow ! You just get more and more stuff... for me, I get useless stuff. It comes with all this plastic and I just leave it on the table or floor until the kids come an open it... it's like the spur of the moment purchases!

@Snowie - it sure sound like the nurses are just ticking the box lol... it's such a leading quetsion i.e. "You're not having SI thoughts, are you??" But it's not like they don't go ahead if you do have those thoughts, right?
