Hi everyone. Mass was good, I'm getting used to the bigger numbers.

Sorry you're not feeling great osc and Cacoethes.

Cacoethes 08-03-2024 02:50 PM

That's good tamo

Thanks
I'll be able to push through, always manage it

long road 08-03-2024 02:51 PM

It did take a while to fall asleep with the equipment on. Partner dropped the equipment back at the hospital around 10am and I managed to nap not long afterwards. Nap helped a bit still have headache from concussion though so taking it easy.


Hope you got to walk home from mass Tamo without your leg being annoying.

Have you tried grounding and things to help with dissociated feeling Lindsay?

I very much hear you on being tired Beckie. Even with my nap I still feel exhausted. And all I hav to do today is chill at home.

Cacoethes 08-03-2024 02:59 PM

Glad you managed to get a nap in

tamobhuuta 08-03-2024 04:01 PM

My leg only hurt a little bit thanks lr. Sorry your nap didn't help much.

one_step_closer 08-03-2024 05:16 PM

I hope work isn't too exhausting, Beckie. Working with some good people?

Did you manage to walk home, Tamo? I hope your leg sorts itself out soon.

How long does concussion take to resolve, Jen?

I don't know if it makes sense but I feel too far away to try grounding but also just doing things so it's ok.

Cacoethes 08-03-2024 05:19 PM

Yeah decent people tonight thankfully

That sounds difficult lindsay

tamobhuuta 08-03-2024 05:20 PM

Yeah I walked home osc. I'm going to try to walk one direction tomorrow too.
Would you like a hug?

one_step_closer 08-03-2024 05:26 PM

How long is your shift, Beckie? I hope you can have some good chat with people.

Well done, Tamo. It's good to do some walking.

Hugs are always appreciated.

Cacoethes 08-03-2024 05:27 PM

Only a few hours, so nothing really!

tamobhuuta 08-03-2024 05:39 PM

*hugs osc*

one_step_closer 08-03-2024 06:49 PM

A few hours can feel like a lot when you're tired.

Thanks, Tamo. What are you doing this evening?

tamobhuuta 08-03-2024 07:09 PM

I've put together some photocopies of letters my psych needs to see on Monday. I have added important notes too.

one_step_closer 08-03-2024 07:15 PM

Very productive. Well done. :)

long road 08-03-2024 09:05 PM

Concussion generally takes up to 2 weeks to resolve. Previous times have started to feel better within a week but this time took longer for symptoms to come on and symptoms are a bit worse.

I think get what you mean about feeling a bit too far for grounding Lindsay. Sometimes I try grounding but it only works while I am actively doing it or doesn't really work and I go straight back to dissociated when I stop.

Glad your leg isn't too sore Tamo. Always good to be organised for appointments.

Hope work is going ok Beckie. Leaving some love for when you get back. <3

Cacoethes 08-03-2024 10:49 PM

Thank you jen <3

I'm back. Work was decent

Cacoethes 09-03-2024 07:45 AM

Morning everyone

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 09:22 AM

Morning Cacoethes, how are you?

Cacoethes 09-03-2024 09:42 AM

Morning tamo
I'm ok thanks
Just cleaned out the piggos and had a shower

How are you?
Any plans for today?

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 10:26 AM

I'm going to Mass at 10 and my big sis is coming over this afternoon.

Well done for cleaning out the pigs. How often do you have to clean them?

Cacoethes 09-03-2024 10:38 AM

Sounds like a nice day!

Thanks! I do a big clean out once a week, but mini clean outs a few times a week

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 10:43 AM

That's a lot of cleaning!

Cacoethes 09-03-2024 11:14 AM

They poop a LOT! XD

one_step_closer 09-03-2024 12:17 PM

Morning everyone.

Piggo poo is not too awful is it, Beckie? Crookshanks has been doing some very smelly poos and he's being an old man and sometimes pooing over the edge of the litter trays which is disgusting. Nice way to start the chat!

Hope you enjoy your day, Tamo.

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 12:39 PM

Our kitten ate avocado and had dreadful diarrhoea all over the wall next to the litter tray.

Mass was good, and I walked home with only a bit of pain.

one_step_closer 09-03-2024 01:10 PM

Eww!

I'm glad Mass was good and you managed to walk home. Will you rest your leg for a bit now?

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 03:02 PM

I'm just sitting around now and I won't walk much tomorrow either.

not_so_insig 09-03-2024 04:09 PM

My cat used to do smelly poos too Lindsay. He wouldn't cover them up either so the smell was terrible. That's the one thing I don't miss!

one_step_closer 09-03-2024 04:17 PM

Yeah Crookshanks doesn't always cover his up. Think he's turning into a typical smelly old man!

How is everyones day going?

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 04:33 PM

I've got my sister here and we're stalking her old school mates.

one_step_closer 09-03-2024 05:03 PM

Sounds like fun! Are you a pro stalker?

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 05:05 PM

I'm no good tbh, my sister is finding them.

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 05:08 PM

What are you up to?

Hi lurking Elmer!

one_step_closer 09-03-2024 05:14 PM

I just finished a book. I'm going to get my dinner started soon as it will take a bit of time to cook. (Just a mini chicken roast which goes in the oven).

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 05:18 PM

That sounds nice. We're having veggie burgers and mash.

Elmer 09-03-2024 06:43 PM

*waves* hi :)

Your dinners both sound good. I don't know what I'm having yet. Maybe pasta

one_step_closer 09-03-2024 06:47 PM

Hi Lio. What's your favourite kind of pasta?

Elmer 09-03-2024 07:03 PM

Oh that's difficult. I really like vermicelli at the moment, but also filled pasta is good as a treat

one_step_closer 09-03-2024 07:04 PM

Have you decided what you're going to have yet?

Elmer 09-03-2024 07:09 PM

Nope! It will be a surprise when I eventually go to the kitchen. Have you had your roast?

Also I feel like spring has finally begun springing today :)

one_step_closer 09-03-2024 07:10 PM

Yeah I have, it was good.

It felt like spring a couple of days ago here but today it has been very dull.

tamobhuuta 09-03-2024 08:05 PM

It was nice this morning but has clouded over this afternoon.

Ahimsa 09-03-2024 09:38 PM

evening all

tamobhuuta 10-03-2024 09:34 AM

Good morning. Am I first here??

Cacoethes 10-03-2024 11:43 AM

Morning everyone

I think you were tamo!
I was at L's. Got up really late! 9am!!
Genuinely can't remember the last time i slept in so late. Very groggy.

How are you?

Ahimsa 10-03-2024 11:57 AM

morning all

tamobhuuta 10-03-2024 12:05 PM

I slept badly. Kept waking up with really sore legs. I got up early to fit everything in before my prayer group this afternoon.

Cacoethes 10-03-2024 12:07 PM

Morning beth!
Nice to see you
How are you?

That's not good tamo
Good luck with your tasks

Ahimsa 10-03-2024 12:09 PM

Oh no Tamo! Would you be able to have a nap later?

Hey Beckie!

one_step_closer 10-03-2024 12:10 PM

Morning everyone.

Do you know why your legs are sore, Tamo? I hope you have a good day.

Glad you slept well, Beckie but groggy is not fun. Hope you feel more awake soon and have a nice day.

Hi Beth, how are things?
