That sounds annoying lindsay!
The doctors have like a 2 hour long lunch break so no danger of that happening!

I did thanks!
And got my washing out of the dryer and put it away.

If there's anything you can think of then let me know!

You're having a productive day Beckie!

Cacoethes · 13-01-2021, 04:20 PM

I am!
It's weird!

tamobhuuta · 13-01-2021, 04:58 PM

Well done on being active Cacoethes.

What are you up to osc?

I had a lovely chat with my godmother. Now I'm having tea.

Last time I was IP I had to have meds with my meal twice a day so I was hassled each time I ate. I felt like saying **** off and leave me to eat in peace. That won't be happening again with those meds as I have put on my advance directive not to have them (not just because of that reason but the fact it gave me pins and needles all the time I took them).

tamobhuuta · 13-01-2021, 05:02 PM

Hi insig :) how are you?

not_so_insig · 13-01-2021, 05:03 PM

I am ok thanks tamobhuuta. Glad you had a chat with your godmother.

Cacoethes · 13-01-2021, 05:16 PM

Thanks tamo

Glad you had a nice chat with your godmother

That sounds super annoying Dawn!

one_step_closer · 13-01-2021, 06:24 PM

I've never been anywhere where they don't hand out meds in the middle of meals.

Keeping busy is good for you as long as it's not too busy.

I'm glad you had a nice chat Tamo.

What will you all be doing this evening?

Cacoethes · 13-01-2021, 06:33 PM

They always do them after meals here

I actually wish I had more to do!
I’m so bored!

I FaceTimed with jasmine earlier. It was really nice

Morning guys

I got locked IN my room this morning!
The lock is dodgy so I never lock it but one of the staff locked it this morning for some reason and I couldn't get out! Had to press the alarm and then they took ages because the alarm system is stupid and never tells them exactly where the alarm is coming from so they went down the opposite corridor.
What a fun morning.....

tamobhuuta · 14-01-2021, 11:57 AM

That sounds really scary!

Cacoethes · 14-01-2021, 12:10 PM

It was mainly frustrating because i really needed the toilet as well!

How are you tamo?

tamobhuuta · 14-01-2021, 12:12 PM

We're more fortunate, the rooms have little bathrooms.

I'm ok. Waiting for a call from my spiritual director, she's a bit late which is unusual.

Cacoethes · 14-01-2021, 12:28 PM

Jealous!
One of the wards in the county does. And all the male wards do which is really unfair!!!

I hope it goes well!

tamobhuuta · 14-01-2021, 12:32 PM

That is very unfair :/ do you have anything to do today?

She said she would call at 11 but...

It's ok, I've got a cup of tea while I wait.

Cacoethes · 14-01-2021, 12:39 PM

Just ward round at 1:30

How odd. Maybe she got caught up with another phone call or something

tamobhuuta · 14-01-2021, 12:54 PM

Yeah, maybe. Do you have anything you want to say in ward rounds?

Cacoethes · 14-01-2021, 01:14 PM

Just that I want to go home. But I don’t think they will agree to that. I have nothing else I want to say.
Leave is not allowed because of covid so I can’t go anywhere beyond the car park so can’t ask for any leave.

tamobhuuta · 14-01-2021, 01:23 PM

*hugs* I hope you get home soon - safely!
