Monday 16th September 2019 -Slow down everyone You're moving too fast

Morning
Lyrics: Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast

What: today we will try and go a bit further. Maybe make it to the bathroom.
Why: slowly does it
Last hard: I'm in a lot of pain
Yesterday's lyrics: lovin each day Ronan Keating

Lucas is just amazing. I'm still not too well though. My blood are quite off still.

  • He is gorgeous emzap. I hope that you feel much better soon. Do let the staff know how much pain you're in and take whatever drugs you need. A C section is major surgery never mind all the other stuff you have going on. Don't rush it, bed to chair is a good start.

    I'm glad you had nice weather and a good weekend to celebrate your dad's birthday Dustin.

    I'm surprised you could stand up there in 50mph winds OH!

    We are waiting for a call from the vet today to make the arrangements for Grace and in the mean time will try to keep her comfortable and spoil her as much as we can. It's a weird limbo land and both Mark and I know that what comes next is going to be even harder to deal with. It's a suitably grey, miserable and currently wet day.

    What:          Probably something
    Why:           I think I'll need it
    Last hard:   Not feeling too poor me
    Last rest:    27/7

    Lyrics - yes.
    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.
  • Em: He is totally gorgeous what a sweetheart.But do take care of yourself as LMH said take and ask for drugs when needed don't rush things.

    LMH: A difficult day for you and Mark but together you will get through the day.

    Dustin: I take it you are a Virgo as well :)

    What: Not sure how far will play by ear
    Why: Because I can
    Last hard: Getting out of bed
    Lyrics: Yes
    ALF: Always a little further
    Miles makes smiles.

  • Lovely pic emzap!  Hope you are getting some rest despite the pain you are in.  Don't rush anything as above.

    ((LMH)) Sorry you didn't have the race you wanted yesterday.  Give it a couple of days and you might think otherwise about York.  Running shouldn't add stress on top for you though.  If it is that much then junking the mara and resetting might be the best idea.  Thinking of you regarding Grace.

    +1 to hard getting out of bed this morning WP.

    Did you have a nice time at the festival Wabo?

    Shame about the race OH.  Nice pic.

    LOL Dustin.  Good your dad got nice weather for his birthday!

    What: rest day
    Why: Monday
    Last hard: getting out of the door for a 10 miler fairly late yesterday evening - glad I did though - went ok. 
    Last rest: today

    Lyrics: no
  • Morning!

    A photo to treasure, Emz! Take it easy and don't rush things: sometimes less is more!

    And another great photo from OH; I presume that you were blown up the hill!

    Thought you were having an easy week, WP?

    Lyrics: no

    What: just some stretches

    Why: sometimes less is more

    Supposed to be going to watch cricket and it is supposed to remain dry, albeit cold. 
    Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.
  • Alehouse: Don't think I am much good at tapering :) but backing off from today.
    ALF: Always a little further

    Morning again

    Achievements today: sat up on the edge of the bed and ate breakfast
    Sat up in bed for a wash
    Stood up for them to continue the wash
    Got to a chair

    Think that's pretty good going :)

    And I need to get some painkillers still as haven't had any since 4am

    Lmh thinking of you today

    WP taper well

    Have a great day
  • Sounds like progress Emz! Hope all is well with Lucas!
    Sent from Old Trafford, Lancashire v Middlesex. Sun trying to break through, but cool. Coats and hats. Trust it warms up later. 

    Stretches d&d beforehand, as was the ironing.

    Hope you've had your painkillers by now emzap. That sounds like progress and quite enough for one day:-)

    Vet is coming out after 1330hrs.
    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.
  • Awww bless, emzap. How cute is that pic? Glad to hear the sitting up. Deffo take it easy and ask for more painkillers if you need them. After all they cut you open so that's bound to hurt!

    LMH: thinking of you all the time. That is a hard decision to make. Gosh, I'm crying again. Grace had a lot of luck that you came across her just in time and 14 is a phenomenal age for a dog.

    Did we miss your birthday then, Dustin?

    I find running late in the day immensely difficult, Hazel. So kudos you went out and did it.

    What: 9 miles
    Why: time and a nice day. Will rest tomorrow o:)
    Last hard: sleeping
    Last rest: 9/9
    Lyrics: yes
  • WaboWabo ✭✭✭
    afternoon all
    EMZAP!!! He is adorable what a gorgeous boy, slowly slowly, hope you feel better real soon
    chick yesterday was the radio 2 festival in a day, nice miles
    LMH sorry to hear about your race, but I so hope the decision about york will maybe relieve your mind, I know it can sometimes.
    OH what a shame about your race
    alehouse shame about cricket, well done with stretches and ironing though - I love the less is more thing!
    hazel great festival we loved it!!  Those later ones are so hard!! well done

    Must tell you lot what Lyla said the other day in my car when we were going out, Mummy won the 36 race, cleo the 8 race, Lyla the 3 and Nanna the 61.  I realised she was talking about categories!!! <3

    What: either 2 or 7 (need 7 really to make my week easier)
    why: week looks busy again!!
    last hard: yesterday am
    last r est: 31/12/16

    why - day off so had the time 
    last rest - 10 days
    last hard - today
    lyric - yes

    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    Happy birthday Dustin!

    Just been told they were considering sending me to itu...seems like things were much more serious than we had thought...

    Luke is so good, we are making the most of sleeping when he does.

    Layla made me laugh wabo
  • WaboWabo ✭✭✭
    oh emzap, poor you, hope they get things settled real soon xxx
    possunt quia posse videntur - we can because we know we can 
  • He's Luke already? You could have saved him a few letters when he learns to write his name  :) Are you feeling any better?

    R.I.P. Grace - 28.6.2005 - 16.9.2019

    Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.
    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    Evening!

    Very sad, LMH. A good innings for a dog though; remember the good times!

    Lyrics: no
