Thanks for reminder Becca rushes to get first pick of comfy sheltered branch !!!
Settles in with fleecy blankets etc !

you forgot me??????

Only for a second, you and Pinkrabbit were far too silent behind the sofa but I’ve fed you now

That's ok then, I forgive you!

I considered moving out - for a millisecond but then panicked and realised I don't actually know who lin is... She could be anyone... Luring me with false promises of cake an treats... When it's really.... VEGETABLES!!!! Or FRUIT!!!!!!!!

She's very scary.

So yeh I'm staying. Plus I love pinkrabbit and telling her where you've hidden your cello

I don't expect she needs to dress up for Halloween. Just goes around with vegetables and fruit pretending it's nice things....

I reckon she’s the sort of person that dips Brussels sprouts in chocolate for a joke you know!

Unless it’s a terrys chocolate orange fruit simply shouldn’t be consumed

I reckon so. I live in fear of finding you gone away and left in her care. She even went to the barn once to spread her dreadful eating habits there...

Well that’s just shocking, if an owl can’t be safe from fruit & veg in a tree or barn it’s no wonder you have to live behind my sofa.

This is Pinkrabbit tonight she uses the base of the lamp as a pillow now 😍

as long as she's comfy.

She is cosy and I’m keeping her in tonight, won’t put her in the hutch as it’s cold out.

Are you feeling any better at all?

Unfortunately no. Still having panic attacks about it too, night time is worst.

You poor thing, it’s been weeks you are really suffering with this. Trouble is with meds, getting food and attending your appointments it’s hard for you to rest and it must take the energy out of you even more at the moment. If I lived close enough to help out with shopping and stuff I would

Me too, Pink. I wish I could help you more Becca it's so not fair you're going through this.

If it's the EDS then it's not going to go away, it'll just get worse. That's the worst thing. It's not like I can rest anyway and the fear it can happen at any time is terrifying. When I've tried to get support all I'm being told to do is to forget about it or see a GP. I'm having constant anxiety attacks now because of it. I've no access to mh support as they discharged me years ago. I can't even get access when in a crisis.

People just don't understand. I saw people today who just wanted me to talk, not getting how hard that is. One of them as I left said they hope I don't get their dreadful cold - I'm annoyed they never said they had one when I turned up.

I'm also terrified because this weekend is the one year anniversary of being in hospital and the hell of that is playing on my mind as well. Last weeks 6 month anniversary of my godmothers suicide disappeared under my health worries. Today I accidentally found a letter she sent me, I was such a dreadful friend to her

Anyway I need to try and get some rest now as I'm exhausted and I've been badly oversleeping for days.

Becca I don’t know anything about EDS infact until now I’ve never heard of it. It must be scary to know if it is that, then it will just get worse. It’s also shocking that a mental health team can simply discharge someone and not allow them to access help in the future, what kind of system is that?
I’m sure you wasn’t a dreadful friend to your godmother, you just have many struggles and sometimes when struggling all people can manage is enough to keep themselves going.

I’m just going to pick the dc up from mil then we are driving in to London to meet dh from his hotel after his night out yesterday. Then we are going on the London eye

Morning all. > lovely sunny day here, but freezing cold ! My dh also on way to London Pink for footi. I normally have a lazy day here on a Saturday, but I am doing the washing and I have ds here, so that means my house needs now becomes like Paddington station once again !
Hope you are all having some sunshine too, despite the cold.

lin stole one of my pancakes!!

EDS is Ehlers Danlos syndrome, the collapsing throat is actually a rare complication but given my other difficulties it's likely to be that.

Been out a lot today despite getting up early and feeling grotty. Am hoping to rest this afternoon.

Sending love to you all. We went to ikea today, I'm totally knackered from it now!!

Going to read then attempt an early night.

Evening owls

You know I’ve never been to an Ikea Curtains I see threads raving about it on here often and feel like I’m missing out on something.

It’s been heavy rain here today but we’ve had a lovely indoors day, baking with the dc, had an indoors picnic and played with the dc toys. Just waiting for my dinner now, dh is currently cooking but I am soooo hungry

Pink you haven't lived! It's probably the only shop where you can easily spend £100 and come out with a ton of stuff that you didn't know you needed

I was reserved, only spent £30 on stuff. Did accidentally buy a wing chair for the lounge though... it was 40% off, really comfy and perfect for our lounge

I am going to have to take a trip to this Ikea and see what the fuss is about! Trouble is I’m a sucker for candles/photo frames/ glasses /cushions/anything pink or shiny! Drives dh crazy

Night owls 💤 💤💤

Early to sleep for me tonight, am exhausted.

Oh pink you're going to love it!! There's a whole area dedicated to frames candles and shiny stuff that's about the size of a swimming pool take a big car in case of accidental furniture purchases...

DCs are back to school tomorrow, I've just got everything out and ready for them. I've got a bonus day off - back to work Tuesday for me. Very tired this evening. Need to call the GP to get a blood test for My thuroid because I've been so tired recently

I had a horredous night. Too terrified to sleep and when I did I had nightmares. Woke up thinking it was much later and id missed my appointment. Feel like I'm losing my mind I'm so afraid of what's happening.

Morning

That’s it Curtains I’m sold. I’ve looked it up and the nearest one to us is Wembley, it’s 20 miles away but I’m going! When I see mil later I’m going to see if she wants to come with me and the dc later in the week.

Becca Sorry you had a bad night 🍰
