Cacoethes 13-12-2023 05:58 PM

Excellent news jen!
Have a nice nap!

tamobhuuta 13-12-2023 06:21 PM

I'm glad you're out lr :)

Zurg 13-12-2023 07:05 PM

Yay Jen :D
Later, we'll have a toast in coffee to celebrate freedom, breathing and your brother visiting :)
I'm descaling my coffee machine. Life on the Wild side, i know….!!!!

Cacoethes 13-12-2023 07:12 PM

Oooh live life on the edge zurg!

long road 13-12-2023 07:30 PM

Thanks for all the well wishes!

Nap didn't occur but laid down for little bit, I have had so much medication sleeping appears impossible for now

You live on the wild side all the time Zug you have a zoo XD

Cacoethes 13-12-2023 07:37 PM

Laying down is better than doing stuff at least!

I think i have some form of zoomies, yet still feel tired and groggy! Which i have done since i got here XD

long road 13-12-2023 07:40 PM

Mention zoomies to staff if you can as I think your new meds have it as a side effect

Zoomies while feeling ***** really sucks! I have that in my future as had my first dose of steroids this morning and you know how much steroids make me zoom!

Cacoethes 13-12-2023 07:44 PM

I started them just over a week ago though! So I'm sure they would have done it before now if it was them! I have been oddly chill and happy since I've been on them though, even when i was admitted to hospital i was cheery! And i certainly did not and do not want to be here! Very odd!

It does! Yes i do, you must be very conscious of how much you're doing!

tamobhuuta 13-12-2023 08:18 PM

The zoomies sound very odd!

Cacoethes 13-12-2023 08:29 PM

They are rather!

tamobhuuta 13-12-2023 09:36 PM

I'm tired, I want my meds.

long road 13-12-2023 11:54 PM

I hope you got your meds by now Tamo. I am off to bed shortly *touch all the wood in my house I don't have to call the paramedics tonight*

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 12:06 AM

Fingers crossed LR!!

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 03:41 AM

Eugh my nap at 2pm has now meant I'm still awake now!

Cacoethes 14-12-2023 09:15 AM

Morning everyone

long road 14-12-2023 09:20 AM

Mornin!

How are you today Beckie?

I am happy because I got to sleep in my own bed all last night and didn't have to call any ambulances!

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 10:35 AM

Amazing news!!

Cacoethes 14-12-2023 10:35 AM

Hey jen

I'm ok apart from a headache!
Hopefully ward round in 2 hours *crosses fingers*

Sounds like a successful night!

Hey beth!
How are you?

long road 14-12-2023 10:45 AM

Morning Beth!

Hope ward round goes ok Beckie.

I am bored. Both my brother and partner are still asleep, I have done breakfast, meds, have made coffee,, done a little tidying and still noone is awake! I may have a touch of the zoomies...

tamobhuuta 14-12-2023 10:50 AM

Sorry you couldn't sleep Ahimsa.

Well done for jobs lr!

Good luck at ward rounds Cacoethes.

long road 14-12-2023 11:02 AM

Morning Tamo!

How are you today?

tamobhuuta 14-12-2023 11:05 AM

Anxious and confused. But Mum just arrived!

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 11:18 AM

Morning Tamo!

Why are you confused?

As always I've got a few things today:
Market research this morning
Town from yesterdays list
Pets at Home
Therapy session 1
Invoices for some work I did.
Washing up I ran out of space for yesterday.

What's everyone's days looking like?

Cacoethes 14-12-2023 11:22 AM

Morning tamo

It is boring having the zoomies when no one else is awake!

Thanks guys.
Apparently my ward round has been brought forward. So i have the first slot.
I only know this because i was about to go to the shop XD
They said 'the dr is seeing you now' but that was like 20 mins ago. Standard. So I'm guessing maybe 10:30?

Hope you enjoy seeing your mum tamo!

Another busy day for you beth

My day very depends on what happens in ward round! Hopefully home!

one_step_closer 14-12-2023 11:53 AM

Morning everyone.

Best of luck, Beckie.

You should wake people up, Jen! Just be evil.

Good luck with everything today, Beth, especially therapy.

I hope you're ok, Tamo.

tamobhuuta 14-12-2023 01:06 PM

Confused because I don't know if I should be trying to get off the ward.

Good luck with your list Ahimsa.

Did you have ward rounds yet Cacoethes?

How are you osc?

tamobhuuta 14-12-2023 01:13 PM

Just had my room searched. They've started searching everyone's rooms regularly. Luckily I didn't have anything I shouldn't. They didn't search the bed though, which was unusual.

Cacoethes 14-12-2023 02:35 PM

Thanks guys!
I am going home today :-D
Just need to wait for the crisis team to call to sort that out

That is unusual tamo

Hi, Ecwmama87, thank you for taking the time out of your busy work schedule to post, I think its great you chose to seek out other people in this thread. We understand that you can't post often and I'm not here as much as I'd like to be either and this thread moves quickly even for me, but always good to hear from you and I hope you are having a nice holiday season as if we don't hear from you before then, haven a merry Christmas. Be well and the forum is open 24/7. :-D

maii 14-12-2023 03:04 PM

HI all ... hope everyone is doing well today. I'm hanging in there is about all I can say. Could be better but could be MUCH worse. I slept a bit better last night and feel a bit more focused.



Hope everyone is managing as best as can be and finding something to appreciate about the holidays.



I'll try to keep up a bit better with this thread and be present more on the forum here because you have all been so kind to me.

not_so_insig 14-12-2023 04:02 PM

That's good news Beckie.

I am slowly cleaning up my flat. There's horsey action on the telly tonight and I am going to watch it so have to do my cleaning before/after then. So far I am procrastinating. But have done some cleaning/tidying up. I also had 2 Christmas cards through the post today and a parcel. I am expecting another parcel however from Lorraine.

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 04:57 PM

I'm not fussed about Christmas either, I'm working all Christmas weekend and then 9 hours of Christmas Day.

How has everyone's afternoons been?

I've just got my invoices and my washing up left to do.

one_step_closer 14-12-2023 04:57 PM

Please don't try and get off the ward, Tamo. *hugs if ok*

I hope you get good enough support at home, Beckie.

What have you been getting up to today, Maii?

Slowly cleaning is ok, Dawn. I hope you enjoy your TV.

one_step_closer 14-12-2023 04:58 PM

Ninja, Beth!

Will you have time to do something nice after your remaining two tasks?

I've been doing a bit of reading.

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 05:29 PM

Yeah, that's all I need to do before tomorrow so I may dye my hair ��

Beckie, stupid question potentially but what has changed with this admit? As it seems you've barely even seen any medical peoples!

not_so_insig 14-12-2023 05:58 PM

My parcel from Lorraine has literally just arrived. I totally wasn't expecting it so late at night so it was a surprise.

I have nearly finished my cleaning just gotta put away the dishes and clean my kitchen sink. As well as putting my laundry away once it's dry. I have to wash my sofa cover but that can wait until after my horsey action on the telly as I having a drink and snacks during it and don't want to dirty a clean one!

long road 14-12-2023 06:24 PM

Sorry I disappeared, People woke up so I started socialising. am having a good day with my brother. Although asthma is starting to flare up which is not great.

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 06:36 PM

I'm glad you're having a good day LR! Asthma aside.

tamobhuuta 14-12-2023 06:52 PM

Hi everyone, especially new and irregular posters!

I haven’t tried to get off the ward today.

Yay for going home Cacoethes! But is it really a good idea?

maii 14-12-2023 07:08 PM

Hi one_step_closer .... not too much other than I ate a nice breakfast and went out for a short walk. I did get a nice Christmas card from someone that I regularly see at dunkin doughnuts and it warmed my heart - the only card so far and I'm happy with that. I'm hoping for a quiet Christmas and that should be the case.



Hope everyone is enjoying everything today.

one_step_closer 14-12-2023 07:27 PM

Are you going to dye your hair a funky colour, Beth?

I hope your asthma doesn't spoil things, Jen.

Have you had any nice points today, Tamo?

That sounds good, Maii.

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 07:28 PM

My hair is always funky OSC, it's always pink and purple but it's faded so I'd just be topping it up :)

How're you doing?

one_step_closer 14-12-2023 07:32 PM

Wow, that sounds lovely! Have you had it other colours before?

I'm just my usual not so good. Drinking some diluting vimto though.

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 07:33 PM

Ooh that sounds like a good move. You've reminded me I have winter ribena in the cupboard!

one_step_closer 14-12-2023 07:35 PM

Do you drink it hot in the winter?

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 07:43 PM

I do :) It's a spiced one.

one_step_closer 14-12-2023 07:45 PM

I've never heard of that. I don't really like hot drinks so always just use cold water.

Cacoethes 14-12-2023 08:07 PM

Hey guys!
I'm home now :)

Ahimsa 14-12-2023 08:43 PM

Hey Beckie!

Cacoethes 14-12-2023 08:50 PM

How're you doing beth?

Sorry i haven't caught up. I am rather overwhelmed and blah!
