Good Evening People

[Vagus]

Today we had a dashcam fitted to his car.
We had a lovely FaceTime with one of our girls.
We took dog for a nice walk early this morning.
We had an indifferent lunch.
We had an even more indifferent evening meal.
We did however have a few hours in the summerhouse, with the sun shining in, dog asleep on our laps (he takes it in turns), G&T in hand.
Oh, and we found out one of our girls (she has a few mental health problems, nothing too bad but does affect her communication with the family) is pregnant, at 44. Trying to be positive. For her and her siblings. But worried.

Today I have felt miserable all day!

[Vagus]

Oooh, sorry to hear that MissT, any particular reason, or just life?

[Vagus]

And happy belated birthday :o)

[Hazlinny]

Maybe just a touch of post-birthday blues, MissT. xx

I have thought about a dashcam but I'm not great with camera stuff & the wiring/tech/etc. & that it might be a target for thieves puts me off.

[MissTerious2]

Just life Vagus. My health mainly and lack of energy still and trange post sepsis symptoms. Also probably a spinal op. Also my mental health. I'm just not coping.

Thanks for the Birthdsy wishes. Actually we went out for a great meal, but it took a lot of effort. Son and wife came round in the evening which was nice. But I'm now worn out!

[Vagus]

Dave, I’m keeping well out of it. He’s been wittering on about getting one for ages, so he finally did. Up to him, he loves his boys toys.

[Hazlinny]

Can I play this for MissT to cheer her up ....I know she likes him x

[Vagus]

MissT, life can be difficult at times, I know only too well. We just have to keep on keeping on. I’m having a few medical problems myself at the mo, which are never going to be resolved, just kept at bay for as long as poss.
I find dog and gin help ;) And ibuprofen sometimes. And a good weep :(

[Barsel]

Lottie, are you still taking the medication you were telling us about?

[Hazlinny]

To go back to your post, Vagus, I hope all goes well with your daughter's pregnancy, especially as she is in the "advanced" maternal group.

[MissTerious2]

Thanks Haz xx

Vagus, I don't do gin, but I do do dogs,,

It's not easy when you know things will not get better but I'm really quite disabled now. I'm surrounded by fields where I could walk for miles I now struggle to walk round the garden with two sticks. A lot of the problem is frustration and the loss of independence.

But a good weep can do us good.

Xx

Thanks Haz, she’s always been a bit of a problem, I only found out yesterday through one of her sisters. We can only do what she will allow us to, she’s even been distant with two of her siblings who are so supportive.
We’re all here for her when she’ll let us, I just know things are going to go pear shaped at some point…

[MissTerious2]

I was in the post maternal group but only 36! I wish her lots of luck xxx Son is 40 next week. I've just had a chat with him which was good
Basically I feel totally useless these days.

I'm off now to eat a curry.
