I can’t cope

[Captain24]

Hey @tyme 

She will be fine she seems really good tonight but the medication could be doing that. I’ll see how she goes tomorrow whether she needs more. But I have more for if it happens again. 

Feeling rough but it doesn’t matter. You’re probably too busy. 

[tyme]

I hope she stays well @Captain24 . Fingers crossed.

What's happening for you tonight?

[Captain24]

I’m tired after my morning and drained after lunch @tyme. Plus I’m annoyed at myself for not finishing everything. 

[tyme]

Maybe you have the right to be tired? I'm sure you were stressed last night with Pix being unwell. Did you get any sleep?

As for getting everything done, will you ever get everything done? @Captain24 

Please be gentle with yourself. 

To be honest, I didn't get anything ticked off my sticky note today 😞

But I know tomorrow, the sticky notes will still be there, plus a few additional ones!

[Captain24]

It was a rough sleep. I woke up every time she moved @tyme 

Somedays I get my entire list done. I’m dreading tomorrow though. I don’t want to wake up. 

Im gentle with myself when I’m happy with everything I’ve done. But I feel that’s the only time I should be. 

Thats ok. You have other stuff to do as well and work. Plus the kids. So there is a variety of factors. 

[tyme]

I think there's pros and cons to that. I think I've said before that I'm kind of that way in a lot of things in that I'm not happy until I've completed everything I need to for the day. Also, I tend not to stop until I'm completely done which is also a bad thing because I'm run off my feet.

I'm guessing that really, there needs to be a balance in life. I need to learn that.

So what's on your agenda for tomorrow? 

How was lunch out? @Captain24 

[Captain24]

Once things change then I fail. If I stop or have a break I fail. @tyme 

Tomorrow I want to move the washing machine and dryer and clean behind them. I want to clean the floor of my walk in and I need to learn how to use my whipper snipper and do the front yard and mow it. Plus nana husband is coming around to drop off the sewing table

Lunch was good. 

did you go for your coffee 

[tyme]

When I used to do the lawn, I never felt 'clean' and 'fresh' until I used the whipper snipper around the edges @Captain24 . Hope the whipper snipper is well behaved for you!

Yeah, I went to the botanical gardens and it was just so lovely. I had a toasted chicken schnitzel sadnwhich and a coffee. It was my brunch. Then late in the arvo, I was craving a macca's hot apple pic, so I got two! I felt sick after eating them. I really shouldn't have them, but...oh well.

Sewing table??? You sew? My mother used to sew so I cringe when I see a sewing machine. It reminds me of all the stuff mum used to make for us. My older sister sews. She makes EVERYTHING including my niece and nephew's swim suits. I seriously don't know where she finds the time or energy.

Isn't your nana's husband the old one that you recently helped @Captain24 ?

I have to wrap up now, unfortunately. I'll be on earlier tomorrow so I'll msg as soon as I'm able. 

[Captain24]

I don’t even know how to turn it on and I haven’t charged the battery @tyme 

That sounds so nice and peaceful. Good self care. 

Yeah.. the old one. When he drops it off it’ll mean I own 4 sewing machines! I can sew. I use to make costumes including unitards. Give me a pattern and I can make anything. A lot of the costumes didn’t have patterns so I had to draw them and in different sizes. 

Mum use to make my swimmers. 

Have a good night. Just tag

me when you’re not busy. If you don’t have time I understand. I’m not overly worth bothering with

[rav3n]

hey @Captain24 how's your friday going?

i'm not on forums for long today, but wanted to pop in and say hi.

sounds like yesterday's lunch went well, and how's the laundry go? did you manage to get a nap in?

i did fall off a bit on my sleep hygiene but i'm working on getting back on track. yesterday i was in bed by 10pm but didn't manage to knock off till after 1am 🙃 but i think that was also to do with the fact that my leg and hips randomly started hurting so i was tossing around a lot more.

with the phone call, i decided to just leave it. they haven't called/left voicemails again so i'm guessing they figured it was a wrong number.
