There You'll Be

Oh that is never good. Feel better.

Valium doesn't work for me.

But, if you're in that much pain, Mandie, shouldn't you be seeing a doctor?

There You'll Be

^ good point. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of pain is it?

sunnykerr

I hope it gets better, Mandie.

reason to believe

I wouldn’t be able to be at a level 10 pain without going to the ER.

sunnykerr

Maybe I could (and maybe I couldn't), but the point is that the whole purpose of the scale is to let a person know when it's time to get professional input.

Mind you, if you're over 10 in pain for a day and then it passes, you're probably okay. But if it stays above 10? You need to get help.

reason to believe

Looks like I’ll have to email my union rep after the long weekend again so I’m looking forward to that! Damn co-worker being stubborn.

sunnykerr

My mother's gonna try to micromanage my back pain.

Meliana

I felt good for so long, but the last couple of days had full on anxiety again. I hate feeling this way!

There You'll Be

It would be nice if I could really hug all of you.

Claire, did you stop doing anything that kept you more peaceful? It will calm itself down again, but in the meantime, don't be too hard on yourself.

Sunny, your mom is going to be your mom. I'm not sure that will ever stop, to any degree. I know it's hard for you though.

Leanne, keep pushing. It's the only way things are going to change, and get better.

sunnykerr

Hang in there, Claire. This, too, shall pass. It always does, in the end.

How are you doing, Kim?

There You'll Be

Rough couple of days. I pointed out that there is black mold on a wall/part of the ceiling, in our room.

Trying not to put myself in my kitty's place, and think of how she felt being yanked out of her home, and shoved into a cage. I know, she's just a cat, but she's been my whole world the last several years, and I can't stop it.

reason to believe

Claire, how are you doing? is it cause of Brexit?

Kim I really hate that and I understand your mind going there. I’m believing she was included with adoption cats as a senior and someone would give her a living retirement home. Sorry your mom did that

Hmm, the black mould problem can’t be shuffled away like they ignore the klepto roomie! The last thing needed in assisted living is a mould problem for the residents’ health!

Meliana

I don't know really, Leanne. Brexit is always on my mind, but we have some breathing space now with regard to that for some months now....

I hate she did that, Kim. I don't blame you for thinking about it though, there's no way I could stop myself if I were you...

sunnykerr

I think what you're feeling about April's kidnapping is only normal, Kim. Like Leanne, though, I have to believe that a nice cat like her found a good place to retire.

What have they said about the mould? Because that would be something very serious to have come out against them. There's always someone above the people who work there, isn't there? And it doesn't look too good to have a place for people who have nowhere else to go and who have health issues to "suddenly" have black mould go untreated...

Claire, I think everyone's hoping Brexit is extended forever.
