Thank you for those squishy hugs @Zoe7 as Iβm not sure what Iβm doing right now. My life has just filled up at a crazy pace and Iβve just done something stupid.
Iβm glad you have a long weekend because you really need this extra time to rest, do school work and just chill with Tobes and cat as well as process your medical issues.
I hope youβre off to bed soon and that you sleep well.
Lots more love

@Faith-and-Hope @Snowie @Lee82 @Eve7 @Shaz51 Finally got some sleep last night and then again after I fed the fur babies this morning. Feeling a little better as a result - lingering headache but nothing severe so I can manage. I also got my school stuff sorted and began a little work - so much still to do today but one step at a time. There are a few things I can do during the week - will set me back a bit in my organisation but have to prioritise what I need for this week and can realistically do in the time I have today.
@Faith-and-Hope Nelly is making it difficult for you - definitely like having a teen again lol Have you put something of yours in the carry crate? A jumper or top you wear often? It might entice her in having your smell in there. Something she usually sleeps on is another suggestion. You have probably already thought of those though!
@Shaz51 It must be really difficult for both you and Mr Shaz not to have your own space my sister. It is a massive life adjustment having to share with your Mum - especially as she can be quite demanding and reliant on you at times - does not leave much room for yourselves
@Eve7 Yes very glad it is a public holiday today. It is giving me time I need to get a little organised as well as feeling a little better. There has certainly been a lot on my mind since the call from my GP Friday - along with everything else going on - so it has been difficult ...one step at a time! I understand life being super crazy Hon and hope you can find some peace across the coming days. Going back to work and everything else you have to cope with is overwhelming so please look after yourself in between everything you have to do and cope with. Hugs and hugs and hugs
@Lee82 Sending lots of hugs and love your way too Hon
@Snowie Hoping there is some good in your day too Hon - mega hugs and some extra love for you too

Cat sleeps in the basket I take her to the vet in @Faith-and-Hope so she is very used to it but with my old cat I used to put one of her blankets and one of my jumpers in - they feel more comfortable with our smells around them so do try that and see how it goes π
What are you up to today?

Slow day today after the big day out yesterday @Zoe7 . We have just had breakfast at the coffee shop, so home to work on puzzles now. Then S2 wants company for supermarket shopping this afternoon, and maybe a burger for lunch on the way home. That's the plan anyway. Have to see how he slept last night, and whether the plan sticks ......

It is great S2 is asking for the company and doing some things @Faith-and-Hope I know he can change his mind (or forget) but that goes with the territory with MI unfortunately. You know that though and give him space when he needs and are there for him when he needs also. I do hope he gets out to do the shopping today - it may seem a very small thing to some but for him it would be a massive achievement.
A slow day after yesterday sounds good. You don't have long before uni starts again so any down time you can get is a good thing. I know you really enjoy the distrations of uni and you immerse yourself into your work but it has also been a very big few months for you so enjoy the time you have to yourself now before you start again.
I have a super snuggly fluffball beside me today - think he knows it is usually a work day and is taking all the extra snuggles he can get while I am home ππΆπ

Morning hon @Zoe7
Glad you got some sleep last night. Sounds like you have got a few things done for work too which is a bonus. Enjoy the extra cuddles.
@Faith-and-Hope hoping the shopping the S2 goes well.
Already had the gp this morning. Have got pdoc this afternoon. Just a phone appointment because of covid. At least I don't have to drive into the city to his rooms which is good in one way, but then I find it harder to talk to him just via phone.
I hope the rest of your day goes well for you both π
