Am Not Coping

[Snowie]

@Zoe7that is totally ok hun to have a day like that. Can watch some sports and cuddle with Tobya and Cat

[Zoe7]

That is the plan @Snowie ...and it is supposed to rain quite a bit today so snuggling up with Toby and watching some sport will be the perfect thing to do to recover a little today.

What time is your ecg and bloods today?

Morning @Zoe7 @Snowie @Pepsimax ...... 🌷

I have struggled to get up this morning.  I think we have another virus going around that started with D2 a couple of days ago.  S2 is complaining about it this morning.  I ache all over and have a headache, but this is pre-paracetamol, so I will see what happens after that and some breakfast and coffee.

Its hard to mention it, knowing how frequently you suffer from this @Zoe7 .....  hearing that you didn’t sleep well, but you achieved another Wednesday, one with the extra pressure on top - the lunch ..... WTG Hon ..... 💐💕

Pleased to tell you that S2 is taking more action to gain support with his uni studies, tailoring the support options to the areas he is struggling with ..... 👍 ..... that’s the son I recognise ....  

[Snowie]

@Zoe7anytime. I just have to go up, take a number and wait for my turn.

That sounds like a lovely day planned 

[Snowie]

@Faith-and-Hopethat doesn't sound good, the virus that is. Hopefully taking something helps a little. Glad S2 is taking more action, sounds like he is helping himself out.

[Zoe7]

Don't ever feel that you can't mention how you are feeling @Faith-and-Hope - what affects you is important to me  Being sick is debilitating when you are dealing with so much else yourself so letting us know you are not well and may need a little extra support as a result is a good thing Hon - the being unwell part sucks though 

Sooooo pleased about S2 - he reallyis taking small steps forward and that is so positive to hear 

@Snowie that is good - you can do it whenever you feel ok to do so

@Zoe7 ❤️

@Snowie ❤️

Taking myself back to bed for a while ..... haven’t done that during the day for quite some time ..... part of my coping system is to keep getting up and “having a day”.

I am officially taking the day off .... lol .... 😏

[Zoe7]

Sounds like you really need a rest day Hon - I really hope this doesn't stick around like the last time you were unwell @Faith-and-Hope - please look after yourself and we are here to help distract you if you need it 

[Faith-and-Hope]

Thanks @Zoe7 ....I will see how I go .... rest can often shorten these things .... and drinking lots of water .... so that’s the plan.

My mr. took out our regular TV channels, leaving only pay TV movies or streaming from iPad / phone options.  This might be my day to learn how to drive this thing.  Having teens n 20-something’s around it’s all too easy to accept them doing it for you and just not learning the new technology.

[Zoe7]

Yes rest and plenty of water can often shorten such things @Faith-and-Hope - but being 'run-down' can also drag them out a bit - so all that is important today is that you do what you need to do to get some rest and reduce stress. Sounds like a great plan working out how to use the technology - I'm sure you will work it out quickly Hon and can settle in to watching and resting for today
