Am Not Coping

New Post: Am Not Coping

It was ok thanks @Zoe7 it was abit on and off but managed a good few hrs. Its an easy day here too. Blowing a gale and cold so will be inside mostly.

Do you think youll be able to get abit more sleep before you go to the pool?

Am Not Coping

I will try not to sleep more before I go to the pool @outlander Staying awake during the day is something I need to do to eventually be able to get through a work day.  I will rest after the pool ad that usually makes me pretty tired but again won't sleep. I actually don't feel like going to the pool today but staying in tht routine is important so I will mske myself go!

It is much colder here than it has been the last few days but not raining as yet. I am not sure what the weather is supposed to be like over the next few days but I have DBT tomorrow and then will try to go back to the pool on Thursday so won't be able to get out in the gardenagain until later in the week anyway.

Up and down nights are shite - we just have to get on and do what we can afterwards Smiley Tongue

Goodmorning @BlueBay and @CheerBear

@Zoe7

That makes sense. Is there anything you can do thatll help keep you awake? I find when im bored  i start  to doze abit. 

Nice spelling btw Smiley Tongue 

 

Good on you for still going even if you dont want to. How is your back and pain levels going?  

Pools twice this week- go you!! 

 

Hopefully later this week the weather will improve and be nice for gardening. 

We have severe wind warnings in place as of yesterday for the next 2-3 days so wont be doing alot here either

Morning @Zoe7 @outlander and all here today.

Noticed you mention the "new post" thing outlander. There's an update with the likes and being able to see a list of people who liked a post under the original post. I noticed that it had changed this morning and am wondering whether maybe the new post thing is part of an update.

I'm a bit meh today @Zoe7 but trying to be OK with that. Thanks for asking though. I am waiting for an x-ray at the moment and thinking I might be in for a long wait. Yay for forum to play on to pass time ☺ Hope the pool is good for you today 💗

I often an pretty tired after the pool and need to rest a little @outlander - the program I have to do plus the temperature of the water both make me tired afterwards but it is so nice being in the water - that I need to remember - when I am there I really enjoy it - it is just getting there that is a problem some days!

I am using a new computer and still getting used to the keyboard - it is slightly smaller than my previous one so apologies for the spelling - seem to be missing some letter there lol

New Post: Am Not Coping

Oh dear @CheerBear what are you having an x-ray on? 

New Post: Am Not Coping

My back/spine @Zoe7. It's nothing serious and not something some chiro won't be able to help with ☺

I felt tired and sleepy just hearing about a heated pool and imagining floating around in it. That would feel so good!

Hi @Zoe7

it’s so nice to have him back home. He talked a lot last night and showed us photos and videos. He had a great time. My youngest son will be home Friday week. I’ll be happy when he’s home too. 

I’m ok although I didn’t sleep well last night. Woke up at 4-5. Just couldn’t sleep. Now I have a headache. Going to work but then home to rest. 

I saw you didn’t sleep well either. Hopefully the pool will tire you out snd you can rest when you get home. 

Chat later better go to work. ❤️❤️

It is a beautiful 32 degrees @CheerBear - feels just like being in a huge bath Smiley Surprised 

Are you having back issues as well CB - that is what I have been doing hydrotherapy for - my x-ray show multiple issues that will take quite some time to be able to strengthen again to help support my lower back
