For the Birthday Boy
Good morning
Market run early this morning then essential gardening only. Norf wind gonna be brutal today. All housework has been banished to Sunday cos cooler then (I hope). I hope Sunday brings the promised rain - everything is getting a bit dry.
Woke up from a nightmare in which Mike Ehrmentraut was following me around for allegedly shoplifting. It was already so hard to go to sleep. I need it for today, my friend will be here at 8:30, body please…
I have been so tense and anxious over the sense that maybe I’ve made a horrible mistake and prioritised the wrong things. I hate this stomach-pit feeling… gotta suck up my choices though.
It will pass - moving house is a big life change. You done the right thing - just the process remains and that has an end date. Hopefully then you can relax a bit and do something nice for yourself as a reward.
It’s been hard to shake the feeling that I’m going backwards with this - but I think I’ll come out ok on the other side if I don’t dwell on the negatives…
Spot on reasoning. The other side is a good goal to work towards. Stressful process though.
Another fun human fact is that we sleep a lot lighter in unfamiliar surroundings. Sokething else that will improve in a little while 🤗
I hope so! Might need to have the white noise going for a few weeks.
Have you spoken to your GP and therapist about this? If that’s not something you typically do then I strongly encourage that you give it a try!
It’s absolutely the major topic of our conversations! There’s some heavy shit underneath it all. Already onto my sixth session next week… without any of that support I think I’d have had a breakdown
Here’s the schedule for mum’s eye things. Was a bit drunk with the rhs I will redo that.
I’ve tried phone alarms / apps but this way seems to have a higher success rate. She’s also supposed to be dropping 2 times after 8pm but she likes her baileys so that’s up to her.
i’m trying I hope it’s logical :( it’s a lot of drops.
I’d personally include the after 8pm times so that she’s got a reminder and a subtle call out for missing them.
If it’s working for her it’s working for you too.
Also please make sure you scan it so you can print it next time!
Sorry for replying twice and this is a significantly more effort intensive solution.
As it’s her vision reading that effectively might be hard.
Have you considered a smart watch she has to wear? It could vibrate at the time required and display the you must do this exact thing now, or maybe could be set to even vibrate/beep differently based on the required task.
I understand the paper solution, and I’m all on-board with it. But I’d still whip that up as a spreadsheet and print it out. Not because I couldn’t make such a chart by hand, just that it would never occur to me.
I’m a little impressed. 👍
What an awesome night!
Goodnight all ❤️
